UFC Vegas 124 went down last night (Saturday, November 7, 2026) at the Meta Apex in Las Vegas, Nevada, which saw Johnny Walker score a knockout win Waldo Cortes-Acosta in the main event (see it again here). Co-star Tatjana Savez defeated Stack Jandirobaat the same time Elijah Smith knocked out Davey Grant in the very first round (highlights).
Who should he face next: Curtis Blaydes
Walker has got off to a blistering start into his run with a UFC heavyweight lock down back to back knockout wins Aid’s goal is to keep it rolling to make the Top 5 sooner rather than later. As for the next good test for him, Blaydes is a guy who might make sense. “Razor” was also last seen defeating “Salsa Boy” in his last fight and now it’s ranked No. 6. The winner of this fight will move closer to a Top 5 spot and throw their name into the championship fight conversation.
Who she should face next: Mackenzie Dern’s title fight
Suarez locked up his third straight win, which should be good enough to catch him Mackenzie Dern’s strawweight title. It would make sense to book the former division queen, Zhang Weishould he decide to return to the division after vacating the title to take the flyweight belt, but “Magnum” has been nowhere to be seen since the loss. Valentina Shevchenko over a year ago. That said, I’d still like to see Suarez get his next title shot thanks to his recent run.
Who he should face next: Timothy Cuamba
Smith made a huge statement after being the first man to knock out Davey Grant, he finished in just 60 seconds. Currently on a nine-fight streak, 4-0 inside the Octagon, “Swift” could be looking for a fight against Cuamba, who is also on a good run himself. Cuamba wins Louis Jourdain just last month, taking him 3-1 in his last four fights.
Who he should face next: Julius Walker
Fernando secured his second consecutive victory in the Octagon after the submission, making it six in a row Billy Elekana by unanimous decision. The taller Brazilian has looked very sharp thus far and has proven that he has the skills to make noise at 205 pounds. As for what’s next for him, a fight against Walker sounds right. Walker recently got back to winning ways in defeat Gerald Meerschaert via second-round TKO, ending his two-fight losing streak.
Who should she face next: Alice Pereira
Milosevic picked up his second victory under the UFC banner destroying Priscilla Cachoeira via second round TKO. He has now won 10 in a row, second under the UFC banner. Next, I really like the fight against Pereira. Like Milosevic, Pereira has won two consecutive Octagon wins and was last seen defeating Darya Zeleznyakova just last month, his second TKO win in a row. It’s a great battle between two rising powerhouses to see who can make a nice move.
Who he should face next: Imanol Rodriguez
Raposo (No. 12) moved a little closer to a top 10 spot after winning his third straight upset Marcos Degli by unanimous decision. I like to challenge him again and I think Rodriguez (#13) is the guy to do just that. Rodriguez is 2-0 under the UFC banner and was last seen in submission Alden Coria via TKO at UFC 332 (see it again here). If Raposo can stop Rodriguez’s momentum before it gathers momentum, it would be a huge boost to his confidence.
