And he <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mmamania.com\/ufc-results\/429141\/ufc-vegas-114-results-flawless-kevin-vallejos-styles-on-josh-emmett-in-violent-first-round-knockout\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">made it look easy<\/a>, barely breaking a sweat in his destruction over the long-time veteran. Things are looking up for the Argentinean, who has now won seven in a row, four straight inside the Octagon. The 145-pound division is going to be very busy in the next few months, so one man who sticks out is Silva. The two men do have history, colliding on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mmamania.com\/ufc-contender-series-dana-white\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Contender Series<\/a> way back in in Sept. 2023, which resulted in Silva walking away with a unanimous decision win. Now that both men are in the big show and enjoying success, it could be the time to make it happen on the big stage. Silva is coming off a win over Arnold Allen, his first victory since losing to Diego Lopes in Sept. 2025.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Winner: Gillian Robertson<br \/>Who She Should Face Next: Suarez vs. Godinez winner<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Robertson secured one of the biggest wins of her career, defeating Lemos \u2014 a former title contender \u2014 via unanimous decision. She should be looking at a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mmamania.com\/ufc-mma-rankings\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Top 5<\/a> ranking, which means bigger fights await the long-time veteran. I would like to see her get paired up against the winner of the upcoming bout between Tatiana Suarez vs. Loopy Godinez, who are set to throw down next month at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mmamania.com\/ufc-fight-cards\/424558\/ufc-327-fight-card-start-time-date-location-jiri-vs-ulberg\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">UFC 327<\/a>. A win over either of those ladies could put Robertson in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mmamania.com\/latest-news\/428372\/gillian-robertson-believes-she-deserves-next-title-shot-with-a-win-at-ufc-vegas-114-its-a-fight-everyone-wants-to-see\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">position to ask for a title shot<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Winner: Jose Delgado<br \/>Who He Should Face Next: Jordan Leavitt<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Delgado managed to escape \u201cSin City\u201d with a close split decision win over long-time veteran, Andre Fili, after a back-and-forth, 15-minute battle. In the end, the judges decided it was Delgado who had done enough to get the victory. As far as what could be next for him, a fight against Leavitt sounds interesting. Leavitt is currently on a two-fight win streak and was last seen defeating Yadier del Valle just last month. He has quietly gone 6-3 inside the Octagon, and a showdown against Delgado \u2014 who is 3-1 inside the Octagon \u2014 could produce fireworks.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Winner: Ion Cutelaba<br \/>Who He Should Face Next: Rodolfo Bellato<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Cutelaba got back in the win column with a impressive first round submission win over Oumar Sy, tapping him with an impressive guillotine choke (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.mmamania.com\/ufc-paramount-plus-news-hub-fight-cards-schedule\/429006\/watch-ufc-vegas-114-video-highlights-results-paramount-cutelaba-submission-sy\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">see it again here<\/a>). Once again, \u201cThe Hulk\u201d showed he can have flashes of brilliance if he gets himself under control inside the cage. As far as what could be next for him, a fight against Bellato sounds interesting. Bellato is coming off a win himself, defeating Luke Fernandez via first round technical knockout at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mmamania.com\/ufc-326-live-stream-results-holloway-oliveira-2-mma\/427394\/ufc-326-results-hub-live-updates-video-highlights-holloway-vs-oliveira-2\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">UFC 326<\/a> just last week (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.mmamania.com\/ufc-mma-rankings\/428188\/charles-oliveira-bmf-domination-max-holloway-cost-blessed-five-spots-latest-ufc-rankings-update\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">see it here<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Winner: Charles Johnson<br \/>Who He Should Face Next: Steve Erceg vs. Tim Elliott winner<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Johnson got back on the winning track with a split decision win over Bruno Silva.
