Summary

Kevin Vallejos is on a roll. The rising featherweight star made short work of respected veteran Josh Emmett in Saturday’s UFC Vegas 114 main event, and the sky looks to be the limit for Vallejos going forward. A number of notable names make sense for him now, what’s the best option for the 24-year-old super prospect? On an all-new edition of On To the Next One, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and Alexander K. Lee discuss what could be next for Vallejos after a career-best performance. Additionally, we determine whether Gillian Robertson has done enough to secure a strawweight title shot after outworking Amanda Lemos, plus future matchups are discussed for budding featherweight talents Jose Miguel Delgado and Marwan Rahiki, the mercurial Ion Cutelaba, the always game Charles Johnson, and more. All that and a slew of fantastic matchmaking suggestions from the listeners. Follow Mike Heck: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@MikeHeck_JR⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Follow Alexander K.
