The UFC's annual stop in Mexico featured mixed results for home country athletes, and ultimately the biggest name of them all fell short at UFC Fight Night 268 on Saturday at Arena CDMX in Mexico City.
As a new arrival in the flyweight top-15, Kavanagh has almost nothing but fresh matchups to look forward to. Top contenders like Manel Kape and Kyoji Horiguchi would both make very tough tests for him, but now that Tatsuro Taira is set to challenge Joshua Van for the belt, it makes more sense to match those two up against each other.
Former welterweight champion Della Maddalena (18-3 MMA, 8-1 UFC) is set to return after losing the belt to Islam Makhachev in November when he takes on surging contender Prates (23-7 MMA, 6-1 UFC) in a five-round bout on May 2 at RAC Arena in Perth, Australia.
