Sherdog’s Jack Dankoff examines potential Ultimate Fighting Championship sequels in the year to come.
. The promotion has thus far staged 11 pay-per-view events, which have included several upsets that have undoubtedly shaped the schedule ahead. Such upsets often lead to rematches, and the UFC could be looking at plenty of them in the calendar year to come.
The circumstances will surely be different in a rematch scenario. For one, we can only imagine the fight will not take place inside the UFC Apex, which will allow for a full-sized Octagon. One can only assume that this would benefit O’Malley’s vast and unpredictable movements. The fight will also be scheduled for five rounds, which, if one had to guess, would probably benefit Vera due to his slow-starting habits and seemingly limitless cardiovascular system.
Did Adesanya have an off night? Did he come into the fight with a pre-existing injury? Did he underestimate Strickland? Maybe, maybe and maybe. With that said, Strickland looked amazing and defeated the champion at his own game. At the post-fight press conference, UFC Presidentsuggested that a rematch between the two would be next. While nothing is confirmed, a rematch makes a lot of sense considering the magnitude of the upset and Adesanya’s global popularity.
