Yan Xiaonan picked up a gutsy majority decision win over Mackenzie Dern in the main event of Saturday’s UFC Vegas 61 event, snapping a two-fight skid in the process. Will she need to fight again in order to regain the title? Or will her next move in the rankings be a major step forward?
On an all-new edition of On To the Next One, MMA Fighting’s Mike Heck and Alexander K. Lee put on the matchmaking hats following the UFC’s latest event at the APEX and give their thoughts on what could be next for Yan after a much-needed victory, along with what could be next for Dern following a tough setback. Future matchups for Randy Brown are also discussed following his win in the co-main event over Francisco Trinaldo. Sodiq Yusuff won the fight against Raoni Barcelos and Don Shainis. This causes quite a bit of debate about the differences between matchmaking suggestions.
