The MMA Prospectus: UFC Vegas fallout, 199, & losing
Bloody Elbow 2.0 | Anton Tabuena

UFC 199 may not be the most prospect heavy card in UFC history, but it’s got some interesting names and fighters to examine. The most important matchup of the night being a welterweight battle between Tom Breese and Sean Strickland. Both men are big, powerful, young rising fighters at 170 lbs. It should make for a great battle between them.

Of course, that’s not all we’re looking at. We’ll also look back on Aljamain Sterling, Cody Garbrandt, and Thomas Almeida as we examine the fallout from UFC Vegas. And we’re taking our normal sweep around the MMA landscape to see what top talent is rising on the regional scene.
