👋 Hola Ariel!!!
After UFC 271 I think we have more clarity in the middleweight division. If I were to play matchmaker today in the middleweight division this is how I would proceed with the top 10:
(C)Adesanya x (2)Cannonier
(1)Whittaker x (3)Vettori
(5)Strickland x (5)Costa
(4)Brunson x (7)Hermansson
(8)Till x (9)Hall
Do you agree with the matchups and which ones would you change if any?

Hello Ariel.
With the two big Welterweight fights coming up it got me thinking. Assuming Colby and Chimaev both win, do you think they will be matched up next while Usman fights Edwards in the summer? Colby probably won’t get another title shot yet and Dana has said Edwards is next for Usman, so Khamzat/Colby would make sense if they both win.
Also, if Khamzat does beat Burns, then Colby, then Usman for the title, then goes up and takes out Izzy does he become the GOAT?
