5 Fights To Make After UFC 249

We know it isn't the fight that he wanted to end his career on and that he planned on having a rematch with Stipe Miocic for the heavyweight title. However, with the champion out of the picture for now due to Cleveland, Ohio, being on lockdown, the next best option for former UFC light heavyweight and heavyweight champion is Francis Ngannou.

At 41-years old, father time certainly isn't on Cormier's side and if he wants to end his career with a title, he's going to take on The Predator to get there. Everyone watching Ngannou's fight with Rozenstruik knew it would be a quick shootout, simply due to the fact that both men are heavy-hitting individuals. It turns out that Ngannou was the man with the quicker draw and is now on a four-fight win streak with very little competition ahead of him.

While it might be tough ask of Cormier, who has one eye on becoming a full-time broadcaster, it's difficult to deny that his Nigerian counterpart isn't in line for another shot at the strap.
