UFC Fight Night: Luque vs Dos Anjos 8/12

Vincente Luque returns to the octagon after suffering from brain bleeding following his previous fight against Geoff Neal. A former top contender in the welterweight division, he is now fighting to get back to his original form where he seemed virtually unbeatable to start his UFC career. The man across the octagon from him is no easy match, as Rafael Dos Anjos is a former lightweight champion coming off a win against Bryan Barbarena. While the names on the card may not be admired by fans, nothing indicates Saturday will be a lackluster night of fights.

What's next for the UFC Flyweight Division?

Alexandre Pantoja's run as flyweight champion seems to just be getting started after his first title defense victory over Brandon Royval at UFC 296 this past December. The flyweight belt had changed hands many times in recent years with the division yet to have a dominant champion since the departure of Demetrius Johnson from the UFC to ONE Championship.  Pantoja can bring stability back to the division, as he is the most well-rounded fighter we have seen in recent years. His three victories over the #2 ranked Brandon Moreno and two victories over the #1 ranked Royval have put him in a position we do not see many champions, with few title challengers to face. While a rematch against Royval may now seem enticing after his decision win against Moreno just a few weeks ago, can you justify giving him another title shot immediately after losing his last opportunity?
