On To the Next One: Matches to make after UFC London
Will Movsar Evloev finally get his shot at Alexander Volkanovski and the UFC featherweight title?

(Photo by Chris Unger/Zuffa LLC) After his majority decision win over Lerone Murphy in the main event of UFC London, Movsar Evloev called for his shot at the UFC featherweight title and Alexander Volkanovski. Moments later, Volkanovski obliged, accepting the undefeated fighter’s challenge.
But with the UFC’s head-scratching matchmaking practices as of late, should Evloev be concerned he could get leapfrogged again? On an all-new edition of On To the Next One , MMA Fighting’s Mike Heck discusses what could — and should — be next for Evloev after his hard fought victory over Murphy. Additionally, future matchups are discussed for Luke Riley following his co-main event win over Michael Aswell, Michael Page after his win over Sam Patterson in the lackluster featured bout, along with other main card winners Iwo Baraniewski, Christian Leroy Duncan, Danny Silva, and more.
Plus, the listeners get their say with their matchmaking submissions on the second half of the program. Listen to the UFC London edition of On To the Next One . Audio-only versions of the podcast can be found on Apple Podcasts , Spotify , iHeartRadio , and wherever you find your favorite podcasts.
