Summary

Carlos Prates sent a strong message to the top of the UFC welterweight division, and the promotional brass, as he ran through Jack Della Maddalena in the main event of UFC Perth and he made it look easy doing it. Prates wants a title shot now, but will he get it in a loaded up 170-pound division? Following Saturdau's UFC Perth card at RAC Arena, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck reacts to the Fight Night event, Prates' phenomenal performance, if a title fight is next for "The Nightmare," or if anything else makes more sense. Additionally, topics include Quillan Salkilld's quick finish of Beneil Dariush in the co-main event, if we saw Dariush and Tai Tuivasa have their final UFC fights after Tuivasa's seventh straight loss, other standout moments, Yoel Romero's jaw-breaking win at Gamebred FC on Friday, and much more.
