UFC Seattle <\/a>went down last night (Sat., March 28, 2026) in Seattle, Washington, which saw Joe Pyfer defeat Israel Adesanya via second-round technical knockout (TKO) (see it again here<\/a>). In the co-main event of the evening, Alexa Grasso stopped Maycee Barber in the very first round with a wild knockout, her second win over \u201cThe Future\u201d (see it again here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Who He Should Face Next: Caio Borralho<\/p>\n

With his win over Adesanya \u2014 who was ranked No. 4<\/a> coming into the fight \u2014 Pyfer should expect a spot in the Top 5, which means the challenges will only et tougher. A fight against Borralho (No. 5). seems appropriate to book next. Borralho is coming off a big win over Reinier de Ridder and is 8-1 overall inside the Octagon. The winner of this potential slugfest could jump to the top of championship line.<\/p>\n

Who She Should Face Next: Manon Fiorot or Erin Blanchfield<\/p>\n

This one is a little bit tougher to zero in on because matchmakers wouldn\u2019t be totally wrong if they wanted to book a rematch between Fiorot and Blanchfield, but I putting Grasso up against either one of those ladies next would also make sense, too. Fiorot is currently ranked No. 2 at Flyweight, while Grasso is tied with Blanchfield for the No. 3 spot.<\/p>\n

Who He Should Face Next: Joanderson Brito vs. Jordan Leavitt winner <\/p>\n

Douglas made a splash in his UFC debut thanks to his destruction of Julian Erosa,<\/a> which made him the talk of the town and fattened his bank account a bit more. The up-and-comer quickly showed a lot of potential and talent and would make a tough challenge for the winner of the upcoming 145-pound showdown between Brito and Leavitt, who are set to throw down on May 16.<\/p>\n

Who He Should Face Next: Cesar Almeida<\/p>\n

Belgaroui earned his second straight technical knockout (TKO) win inside the Octagon thanks to a stellar performance against Mansur Abdul-Malik, who suffered a knee injury in the third round. Despite the setback, Belgaroui is 2-0 under the UFC banner. Up next, a fight against Almeida sounds appealing. Alemida is 3-2 so far under the UFC banner, though he was last seen coming up short against Cezary Oleksiejczuk in Dec. 2025.<\/p>\n

Winner: Terrance McKinney<\/p>\n

Who He Should Face Next: Alexander Hernandez<\/p>\n

McKinney got back to his head-hunting ways and secure yet another fast knockout win after destroying Kyle Nelson in just 24 seconds (see it again here<\/a>). He is now 3-1 in his last four fights with all three victories coming in the very first round. A fight against Hernandez sounds like a good matchup for both men, as Hernandez is also on an ice little run, having won his last four fights including his last two against Chase Hooper and Carlos Diego Ferreira by technical knockout (TKO).<\/p>\n
