Next fight for Delija?

[Trigger Dave]

Delija is back in Croatia after huge win against Tybura. Yesterday he gave a interview to small local TV station in Dubrovnik where he said that he already got an offer from the UFC this monday to fight in one event till the end of this year. He even told that it should be main event fight.

Based on this info and as he is currently 9th in the rankings, I assume that his next opponent should be one of the trio Lewis-Blaydes-Pavlovich. It could also be Cortes-Acosta or Spivac, but I am leaning towards one of the guys earlier mentioned as both of them are coming from a loss.

Back to the interview, Delija also mentioned that he will be staying at the hometown just for this week. He will probably fly to England and already next week be available to Aspinall and his training camp for fight vs Gane. True warrior!

Delija vs Cortes Acosta who is ranked #6 makes sense, if he wins that he can get a title eliminator.

Yes feed him Cortex-Acosta. Lewis needs to be back up for Tommy vs. Gane.

Yes feed him Cortex-Acosta. Lewis needs to be back up for Tommy vs. Gane.

Maybe if he's just the backup if Gane dropped out. Imagine something happened to Aspinall and they made Gane vs Lewis 2 for another belt.

Can't have that happen lol.

Tom Aspinall

Waldo Costa, to double fraud check him. That or Pavlovich.

Kind of crazy that Delija was originally scheduled to fight Ciryl Gane on the Ortega / KZ card.
