Jiri is always must-watch.
Dude brings the violence.

IFW is 2.5 weeks away, I HIGHLY doubt it. Pereira has already said recently he's coming back to get his belt.
My Guess would be Jiri vs Ulberg, Chicago co-main, Vegas(OCT 4th), or Vancouver main event OCT(18th).

Would be awesome if Pereira vs Ankalaev is next. But I'm 99% sure he's having a massive contract dispute with the UFC. Pereira has cancelled a bunch of meet & greets after being "hacked". Unless he's changed his mind about fighting out his current contract, I doubt he fights soon.

That dummy looks like 6ft8 and relatively lean.
He would be UFC champ with 6 months of human training.

I did see that.“[A rematch] is my focus, that’s what I want, and that will happen,” Pereira said. “I don’t know [when], we haven’t spoken, but around October. It could be September, October, November. It doesn’t matter to me. That date is perfect for me.”Alex Pereira reveals timeline for UFC return, says Magomed Ankalaev talks trash ‘because no one knows he’s champion’

But sometimes fighters say stuff like this to drum up hype for their fight, to use that to pressure the UFC in a contract dispute. I won't be convinced that Pereira has resolved his dispute with the UFC until I see an actual fight announcement with a signed contract.

Probably Jiri vs Ulberg in a title eliminator. There's no other opponent for him that makes sense right now unless they want to make Jiri vs Ank but I don't think the UFC is going to make that fight before Alex gets his rematch. Alex is going into the late stage of his career and the UFC is gonna want to maximize Alex while they still can. Where as Ank and Jiri are still in their primes so there's no need for them to rush Jiri vs Ank right now, especially not in a division in which there's not much to look forward to after Alex moves up or retires.

As a Kiwi, and also a Jiri fan - I'm a little torn. But although Ulberg is getting better, he's not ready and I think he has time to get much better, so I'd rather that fight didn't happen yet. If it is to be Jiri's next fight though...war Jiri!

Exactly how much more time do you want Ulberg to take? Dude isn't 26 years old...he's 34.

I am rooting for Jiri to beat Ank.
Except for the part where he'd face Alex again.

“I took two f***ing crazy guys from my village to here to see this event,”
“They are here. Today, I will bring them to my hotel, and they will see something.
“You are invited.”
Ya'll are invited to Jiri's hotel room with his 2 crazy buddies I hope you like what they have to show you.
