MATCHES TO MAKE AFTER UFC 213

The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) was back in Las Vegas, NV this past Saturday night (July 8, 2017) with UFC 213: Romero vs. Whittaker. It had been an exciting night of bits that watched five of 11 bouts end inside the distance. With the action now in our rear perspective, let us look at some possible matchups featuring a few of the competitors from the day…
Alistair Overeem vs. Alexei Olinyk
Both of these heavyweights were powerful in their own charms at UFC 213, with Overeem trimming Fabricio Werdum via majority decision about the judges’ scorecards in a rubber match, and Oliynyk beating Travis Browne by second-round rear-naked choke entry in striking, come-from-behind fashion. Overeem was expecting to make another title shot with this victory, but UFC president Dana White confirmed he won’t be receiving it. I think a potential matchup against fellow veteran Oliynyk makes sense and would be a good fit for the main card to November’s UFC 217 at nyc.
Fabricio Werdum vs. Derrick Lewis
Werdum came up short on the judges’ scorecards from Overeem and will be looking to bounce back into the win column his second time out. I believe an opponent which is logical for his next outing inside the Octagon is Lewis, who said that he was retiring after having a fourth-round TKO loss to Mark Hunt but has since changed his tune. I think this possible heavyweight showdown are the ideal principal occasion for October’s UFC Fight Night in Brazil, in which Werdum would like to have the house advantage.
Rob Font vs. Matthew Lopez
Font defeated Douglas Silva de Andrade via second-round guillotine-choke entry to earn his second consecutive victory within the Octagon. Because of his next bout, I would like to watch him take on the guy rated right below him in Matthew Lopez, who’s coming off a first-round TKO of Johnny Eduardo and enjoys a two-fight winning series. I think this potential bantamweight contest should be the featured bout on the televised prelims for October’s UFC 216 at vegas.
