UFC Vegas 100 went down final night time (Sat., Nov. 9, 2024) contained in the Apex in Las Vegas, Nevada, which featured a Welterweight bout that noticed Carlos Prates knockout Neil Magny within the very first spherical (see it once more right here). Within the co-headlining act, Reinier de Ridder stopped Gerald Meerschaert through third-round submission (highlights), whereas Charles Radtke handed Matthew Semelsberger his fourth straight loss because of a 51-second knockout.
Winner: Carlos Prates
Who He Ought to Face Subsequent: Michael Web page
After his massive win over Magny, Prates known as for a combat towards Jack Della Maddalena. Whereas that shall be an eventual nice matchup, I don’t assume that combat is within the playing cards simply but. Maddalena is ranked No. 4 for the time being and has title combat aspirations, so I doubt he would settle for a combat towards somebody who isn’t within the Top15 but and that would very nicely finish his title combat desires. For now, I might like to see Prates take a bout towards Michael Web page, who presently sits at No. 13. A number of months in the past, Prates claimed that the promotion was attempting to e-book this combat, however “Venom” wasn’t keen to select up the cellphone. Two thrilling strikers going at it’s a sure-fire recipe for fireworks.
Winner: Reinier de Ridder
Who He Ought to Face Subsequent: Cesar Almeida vs Abdul Razak Alhassan winner
The previous ONE double-champion took benefit of his late alternative to co-headline a UFC card in his debut by choking out Meerschaert in spherical three (see it once more right here). It is going to be a bit earlier than de Ridder begins getting massive identify foes regardless of his championship pedigree, so a combat towards the winner of Almeida vs. Alhassan — who’re set to throw down in Jan. 2025 — appears applicable. Both man can be an amazing take a look at for de Ridder, who I’m certain is chomping on the bit to face ranked foes to extend his probabilities at getting the chance to combat for gold in one other promotion.
Winner: Gaston Bolanos
Who He Ought to Face Subsequent: Charles Jourdain
Bolanos received again on monitor and improved to 2-1 contained in the Octagon by ruining Cortavious Romious’ UFC debut. Up subsequent, a combat towards Jourdain appears applicable for the previous Bellator MMA veteran since “Air” lately received again into the win column himself, snapping his two-fight win skid by defeating Victor Henry through submission (guillotine choke) earlier this month.
Winner: Gillian Robertson
Who She Ought to Face Subsequent: Angela Hill
Robertson secured her third straight win after defeating Luana Pinheiro through unanimous resolution, which ought to assist her transfer up a spot or two within the rankings. It might not be sufficient to be solid into the High 10, however a win over Hill may do the trick. Hill is presently ranked No. 12, together with her final win coming towards Pinheiro, as nicely. She is coming off a tricky loss by the hands of Tabatha Ricci.
Winner: Mansur Abdul-Malik
Who He Ought to Face Subsequent: Zachary Reese
Abdul-Malik made a splash in his UFC debut by starching Dusko Todorovic within the very first spherical to enhance his excellent file to 7-0, 1-0 UFC. Zachary Reese, in the meantime, is coming off a unanimous resolution win over Jose Medina a few months in the past, his second straight win. Reese is 2-1 to this point in his younger UFC profession, defeating Julian Marquez previous to his win towards Medina. He has confirmed to be resilient, bouncing again from his debut defeat through knockout by the hands of Cody Brundage.
