Nate Diaz and 'Cowboy' allegedly interested in rematch — with a catch

Tom Taylor - March 10, 2019

According to Brett Okamoto of ESPN, fan favorite lightweight contenders Nate Diaz and Donald ‘Cowboy’ Cerrone recently discussed a potential rematch — but not at lightweight. Okamoto says Cowboy and Diaz chatted about a rematch backstage at UFC 235. Diaz suggested he was up for it, but so long as there was no weight cut involved. That apparently means the fight would have to occur in the 185-pound middleweight division — a weight class neither man has competed in before.

'Jacare' Souza has awesome reaction to Yoel Romero rematch booking

Tom Taylor - March 10, 2019

When former Strikeforce champ Ronaldo “Jacare” Souza joined the UFC middleweight division in 2013, he was right on the cusp of a UFC middleweight title shot. He’s remained in close range of a title shot ever since, but unfortunately has never had the opportunity to fight for a UFC belt thus far.

VIDEO | Watch Junior dos Santos serenade his two-year-old son after KO win

Tom Taylor - March 10, 2019

Junior dos Santos is one of the most ferocious knockout artists in UFC history. By all accounts, he’s also one of the nicest guys to ever step foot into the cage. Last night, in the main event of UFC Wichita, the former UFC heavyweight champion showed both sides of his personality, first melting Derrick Lewis with a salvo of second round strikes, then melting hearts by singing Happy Birthday to his two-year-old son Bento.

Jon Jones is once again ruling over the UFC light heavyweight division with an iron fist, and could conceivably do so for some time. That being said, there is a currently a tidal wave of new blood in the UFC light heavyweight division, and therefore some fresh and compelling champions on the table for the light heavyweight champ.

What's next for UFC Wichita main event fighters?

Cole Shelton - March 10, 2019

The Octagon touched down in Kansas for the first time on Saturday night, returning to our screens with UFC Wichita. The main event of the card was an important heavyweight fight. Ultimately, Junior dos Santos beat Derrick Lewis by TKO in the second round to become a top contender in the heavyweight division. Although Daniel Cormier has been eyeing a fight with Brock Lesnar, the question is, did dos Santos do enough to get the next shot?

Junior dos Santos has an idea for his next opponent after UFC Wichita victory

Tom Taylor - March 10, 2019

Former UFC heavyweight champion Junior dos Santos continued his comeback tour at UFC Wichita on Saturday night, when he clobbered recent title challenger Derrick Lewis to a second-round TKO. With this victory, dos Santos is now on an impressive three-fight streak. He’s likely now only a win or two away from another shot at heavyweight gold, and could probably earn himself a shot with a big win over the right opponent.
