UFC Edmonton went down final evening (Sat., Nov. 2, 2024) inside Rogers Place in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, which noticed Brandon Moreno defeat Amir Albazi through unanimous resolution within the Flyweight major occasion of the night (extra on that right here). Within the co-main occasion, Erin Blanchfield defeated Rose Namajunas — additionally through unanimous resolution (recap right here) — to safe her spot behind prime girls’s 125-pound contender, Manon Fiorot, for the following title shot.
Winner: Brandon Moreno
Who He Ought to Combat Subsequent: Brandon Royval rematch
Moreno bought again within the win column in a giant means final evening, however a shot on the title received’t be subsequent since he was on a two-fight skid previous to his win. In the meanwhile, division king, Alexandre Pantoja, shall be defending his strap towards Kai Asakura at UFC 310 subsequent month, so I want to see Moreno and Royval run it again to see who will get the winner. Royval defeated “The Murderer Child” through split-decision earlier this 12 months, so let’s go at it yet one more time to see who shall be combating for the belt in 2025.
Winner: Erin Blanchfield
Who She Ought to Face Subsequent: Alexa Grasso
After Blanchfield locked down the most important win of her profession over a former champion in Namajunas, “Chilly Blooded” referred to as for a battle towards one other ex-title holder in Grasso. A title battle between Valentina Shevchenko and Manon Fiorot is all however booked, so Blanchfield must sit idle for some time if she opted to attend for her title shot. Within the meantime, I like that she’d favor to remain busy towards Grasso, who misplaced her title to “Bullet” at UFC 306.
Winner: Brendson Ribeiro
Who He Ought to Face Subsequent: Ryan Spann
Ribeiro snapped his two-fight win streak and picked up the primary win of his UFC profession by narrowly defeating Caio Machado through split-decision. Up subsequent for “The Gorilla,” a battle towards Spann is sensible as a result of “Superman” additionally simply bought again within the win column, snapping his three-fight skid by defeating Ovince Saint Preux at UFC 307 through submission.
Winner: Jasmine Jasudavicius
Who She Ought to Face Subsequent: Winner of Karine Silva vs. Viviane Araújo
Jasudavicius secured her third straight win with a formidable submission win over Ariane Da Silva. She is going to get nearer to the High 10 — she is at present No. 14 — however will seemingly want yet one more win to get there. I want to see her tackle the winner of the upcoming showdown between Silva (No. 11) and Viviane Araujo (No. 9), who’re set to throw down on Nov. 16 at UFC 309 in New York Metropolis.
Winner: Dustin Stoltzfus
Who He Ought to Face Subsequent: Abusupiyan Magomedov
Stoltzfus secured an enormous win by completely obliterating Marc-André Barriault through devastating knockout within the very first spherical (see it right here). It’s a superb bounce again win for him after he was beforehand knocked out himself by Brunno Ferreira. Stoltzfus has been quite inconsistent with regards to choosing up wins, as he’s simply 3-5 in his UFC profession. He’ll look to maintain his present momentum entering into his subsequent outing, and I’d like that to be towards Magomedov, who’s coming off a win off the aforementioned Brunno Ferreira at UFC 308.
