On To the Next One | What's Next For Tatsuro Taira After UFC Vegas 108?

from MMA Fighting · host MMA Fighting

Tatsuro Taira is back on the winning track, but where does he currently stand in the contender line? The 25-year-old super prospect took out Hyun Sung Park in dominant fashion in the #UFC Vegas 108 main event, needing a little more than a minute to submit the short-notice opponent. Afterwards, Taira discussed possible matchups with #UFC flyweight champion Alexandre Pantoja and two-time champion Brandon Moreno. No matter what, the future is clearly bright for Taira. On an all-new edition of On To the Next One, MMA Fighting’s Mike Heck and Alexander K. Lee discuss what’s the right career move for Taira after bouncing back from his first loss. Additionally, future matchups are discussed for Chris Duncan and Esteban Ribovics after both fighters scored thrilling wins and Fight of the Night honors, along with fellow main card winners Karol Rosa, Neil Magny, Kevin Vallejos, and more. All that and another fine selection of listener picks. Follow Mike Heck: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@m_heckjr⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Follow Alexander K.
