On To the Next One | Matches To Make After UFC Vancouver

Additionally, future matchups are discussed for Mike Malott following his strange decision win over Kevin Holland in the co-main event, Aiemann Zahabi after his split decision win against Marlon Vera, Manon Fiorot following her quick knockout of Jasmine Jasudavicius, along with fellow main card winners Charles Jourdain and Kyle Nelson.

explicitBrendan Allen picked up the biggest win of his career in the main event of UFC Vancouver.

Following a strange and weird UFC Fight Night event, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and Jed Meshew react to how it all went down, Allen's TKO win over de Ridder and the big takeaways, and where both fighters could go next. Additionally, they discuss the rough night for Miragliotta and if anything will ever change with officiating in MMA, Malott's win over Holland, Aiemann Zahabi getting his seventh straight win, Manon Fiorot's destruction of Jasmine Jasudavicius, and much more.
