UFC Thoughts
Joseph Benavidez will most likely be competing for the flyweight title at some point, although the opponent is still up in the air... Max Holloway v. Alex Volkanovski next month for the featherweight title... Spring 2020 for the Khabib Nurmagomedov v. Tony Ferguson UFC lightweight title bout, which will pit Khabib's 28-0 pro MMA record against Ferguson's 12-fight win streak... The UFC will most likely book 1-loss Jon Jones against 0-loss Dominick Reyes for the UFC light heavyweight title... I'm not really liking the current welterweight title matchup, with Kamaru Usman against Colby Covington, since third-ranked Leon Edwards- eight-bout win streak to boot- was up for taking on titleholder Usman. The best-case scenario in my eyes is to book Tyron Woodley against Edwards to co-main Conor McGregor's likely UFC comeback on January 18th and have Jorge Masvidal fight the winner in a two-part title eliminator
