from MMA Fighting · host MMA Fighting
Sean Strickland. And Again. Once again in the familiar spot of being a massive underdog in a middleweight title fight, Strickland outlasted Khamzat Chimaev to win a split decision and claim the championship for a second time in the main event of UFC 328 on Saturday. Strickland now has a handful of options for his next challenger—including a potential rematch with Chimaev—so who gets their shot at the surefire UFC Hall of Fame inductee? And what in the world do we do with Chimaev after that bizarre performance? On an all-new edition of On To the Next One, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and Alexander K. Lee discuss who should fight Strickland first in his second UFC title reign and whether Chimaev is going to move up to 205 pounds or stay put at 185. Additionally, future matchups are discussed for Joshua Van coming off of his first successful title defense over Tatsuro Taira, where Taira goes from here, plus main card standouts Alexander Volkov, Sean Brady, and King Green, and more. Plus, the fellas take your matchmaking suggestions at the end of the show. Follow Mike Heck: @m_heckjr Follow Alexander K.
