Wouldn't mind seeing him and Mighty Mouse square off again.
 
I have a feeling it will be Garbrandt, which will be a fun fight, but I'd rather see the Cruz/Mighty Mouse rematch first.
 
Assuncao-Dillashaw winner.
 
TJ/Assuncao winner imo, MM is a close 2nd option, but i believe he is sort of scheduled for two fights, (or at least the belt is).
 
Might Mouse already said he wanted to break Anderson`s record so 3 more fights for him, he said he could fight Cruz sooner than that but for the right amount of money-2 million- and Dana said no, so that`s out of question at the moment.

Dillashaw vs Assunção winner gets the shot.
 
A long hiatus. Injury news coming soon. Better get the interim title ready Dana..
 
I would assume if Mighty Mouse wins his next fight he has no other option but to move up. I think Garbrandt is close, but I also think he is a potential superstar in the making and I'd assume they'd like to get him one or two more fights to gain some more experience and build a bigger fan base before throwing him into a championship fight with Cruz.
 
Since Johnson has no intentions of moving up for now, it should be the Assuncao/TJ winner, provided they win clearly and aren't too banged up.

Plan B would have to be Lineker? I guess? If he KTFO's MacDonald, I wouldn't hate that (wouldn't love it either though)

Mighty Mouse would be the best choice, but he has two other fights scheduled right now lol.

Garbrandt or Dillashaw/Assuncao winner if Mighty Mouse doesn't move up. If he does, let there be an interim title fight and he can keep his title until he's back or give it up if he decides to stay at 135.

...although, the thought of Mighty Mouse fighting Garbrandt (assuming DJ wins) would be a serious size mismatch.
 
Killashaw/Assucao

Caraway vs No Love makes the most sense next, and winner of McDonald/Lineker gets pretty close to a title shot IMO. Mighty Mouse and Cruz should fight after they completely clear out their divisions. Both champs still have some match ups that make sense within the division.

He's fighting the TUF winner in December no matter what. After that, who knows.
 
As much as I want to see Dj vs Cruz II ..... You gotta give it to the Assuncao/Silly Dilly winner. Especially if Dillashaw wins.
Cruz/Dillashaw was a literal draw in my eyes. Nobody won.
 
Mighty Mouse is the money fight. Plus it might actually get a few fans to pay to watch a Mighty Mouse fight....

Dillinshaw assuming he wins somewhere down the road makes sense. Caraway and Garbrandt need at least one more win over a 10 each to get into position. McDonald as well needs at least one more top win.
 
Dillashaw rematch should he beat Assuncao.
