Fighter vs Writer: Matt Brown Reacts to Wanderlei Silva Suffering Brutal Knockout, UFC 320 Picks and Predictions

Carlos Ulberg has done just about everything he can to make his case for a title shot.

“Black Jag” was already on a red hot win streak with eight straight wins, but he put an exclamation point ont hat run Saturday with a first-round knockout of the resurgent Dominick Reyes. With Magomed Ankalaev and Alex Pereira rematching for the light heavyweight championship at UFC 320 next Saturday and top contenders Jiri Prochazka and Khalil Rountree also on that card, is there still too much noise at the top of the division for Ulberg to get his opportunity?

On an all-new edition of On To the Next One, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and Alexander K. Lee discuss whether Ulberg has placed himself firmly at the front of the contender pack with his statement win. Additionally, future matchups are discussed for Jimmy Crute, Jack Jenkins, budding Hall of Fame candidate Neil Magny, top lightweight prospect Tom Nolan, and more.

Plus, what to make of the public and critical reception to UFC Perth, and listener picks to close out the show.

UFC Perth Post-Fight Show: Reaction To Carlos Ulberg's Brutal Knockout Of Dominick Reyes

The light heavyweight title is on the line at UFC 320 next week, but the UFC Perth main event could produce a surprising No. 1 contender.

Carlos Ulberg takes on Dominick Reyes on Saturday and while the two have taken vastly different paths to get to this spot, what they have in common are a string of results that have pushed them towards title contention. Will the surging Ulberg make it nine straight wins to force the matchmakers to consider a fresh challenger, or will the resurgent Dominick Reyes continue his storybook march towards a second championship opportunity?

Ahead of Saturday's Fight Night event at RAC Arena, MMA Fighting's Alexander K. Lee and Jed Meshew figure out where Ulberg and Reyes fit in the picture with Magomed Ankalaev, Alex Pereira, Jiri Prochazka, and Khalil Rountree all in action soon, plus what to make of a 13-fight card that has struggled to sell tickets and to capture the attention of fans. Additionally, the crew debates whether Neil Magny is a future Hall of Fame inductee, who has the chance to steal the show, and we take listener questions and comments.
