Tatsuro Taira<\/a> is back on the winning track, but where does he currently stand in the contender line at 125 pounds?<\/p>\n

The 25-year-old super prospect took out Hyun Sung Park<\/a> in dominant fashion in the UFC Vegas 108<\/a> main event, needing a little more than a minute to submit his short-notice opponent. Afterwards, Taira discussed possible matchups with flyweight champion Alexandre Pantoja<\/a> and two-time champion Brandon Moreno<\/a>. No matter what, the future is clearly bright for Taira.<\/p>\n

On an all-new edition of On To the Next One, MMA Fighting\u2019s Mike Heck and Alexander K. Lee discuss what\u2019s the right career move for Taira after bouncing back from his first loss. Additionally, future matchups are discussed for Chris Duncan<\/a> and Esteban Ribovics<\/a> after both fighters scored thrilling wins and Fight of the Night honors, along with fellow main card winners Karol Rosa<\/a>, Neil Magny<\/a>, Kevin Vallejos<\/a>, and more.<\/p>\n

All that and another fine selection of listener picks.<\/p>\n
