With the win against Mariya Agapova, flyweight Gillian Robertson added another stoppage to her resume. So far, the Canadian has seven stoppage victories in UFC women’s flyweight division, which is most in the division’s history.

Now it’s time for a ranked opponent!

Cynthia Calvillo is ranked No. 14 and rides a four-fight losing streak. This would be a perfect next fight for Robertson.

Andre Fili vs. Lando Vannata

Andre Fili was scheduled to face Lando Vannata at UFC Vegas 60, but the latter had to pull out due to an injury.

A highly interesting featherweight bout with two fighters that compete at a very high level when they are on top of their game.

The tough Song Yadong might have lost the main event against Cory Sandhagen, but he fought one hell of a fight, and proved that he belongs in the top of the stacked bantamweight division.

When Yadong’s face has healed, let’s put him up against No. 7 ranked Rob Font, who comes from back-to-back losses against Marlon ”Chito” Vera and Jose Aldo.

A fight between Cory Sandhagen and No. 5 ranked Marlon Vera would be the fight to make next. Especially since both fighters could be just one win away from a title shot.

“If he wants it, he can get it,” Vera recently said about fighting Sandhagen next. “I’m not shying away from any fight. I’m a fighter, I’ll fight anybody, I want to be a world champion. If I want to get there and get the belt, I don’t run away from no one.”

Gregory Rodrigues is 4-1 UFC and has earned 11 of his 13 career wins by stoppage. How would the Brazilian eight-time National BJJ champion stand against the tough Chris Curtis?

No. 15 ranked middleweight Curtis is 3-1 in the UFC, and would be a step up in competition for Rodrigues.
