So who do you think is next for all the fighters of UFN 13. Here are my predictions...

Florian- Once again Florian had another great performance against a tough competitor. I predict he will either get a shot against the winner of Penn/Sherk or if they want to give him one more fight before then it will probably be against Huerta to determine the #1 contender.

Alves- Seeing how Fitch is pretty much means Alves will have to win atleast one more if not two more fights before he can get a shot, because you have fighters like Davis and Koscheck fighting their way up the ranks also. I think there are three choices for Alves. Either Davis and Koscheck if they win their next fights OR maybe Diego Sanchez since he just won his last fight.

Hamill- He looked alright, but I still think he needs to improve a lot. He is strong, but I think he needs to speed up a little bit. They might give him the fight with Bonnar again. There really isn't much to choose from. If not him maybe Irvin

Diaz- Diaz was getting pounded, but pulled out the win regardless. I predict they will give him an even bigger name next time, someone like Joe Stevenson

Irvin- Well Irvin had a nice return, but we didn't get to see very much lol. Once again there really isn't much to choose from. Like I said earlier, he might get Hamill

Maynard- This was my underdog pick of the night and he pulled it out. He took out a pretty big name in the division, so they will probably give him another really big name next. I'm hoping for Tyson Griffin

Neer- Well Neer has been out for a long time so I doubt he will get a big fight next. I think they will give him a TUF fighter next. Probably another winner from tonight, like Sotiropoulous.

Guida- Well, I'm sure whoever Guida fights it will be a tough opponent. I wanna say if Diaz doesn't get Stevenson then Guida will, but just in case I'll go with someone like Edgar

Sotiropoulous- Neer like I already said.

Aurelio- I'm gonna throw out a wild guess here, but I predict it will be someone you wouldn't really expect, like Cole Miller.

Gamburyan- Manny will probably get Pellegrino next.

Johnson- Ehh, not a big fan of his even though he does have KO power. He'll get another TUF guy like Koppenhaver probably.


Well thats my predictions for the winners. Whats yours.

Kenny Florian
Like you said I don't think theres a question whether he deserves a title shot or not. he put up a good fight against sherk and had him gushing. Hes been dominant ever since then. He has taken out some big name guys like joe and din thomas. They can give him another fight in between but really I dont see any one else in the lw division besides huerta getting the next title shot and huertas out for awhile. Kenny Florian is the next number one contender after this.

The timing is perfect to because they are both competing so close to each other they will be free at the same time. I think they planned it this way to possibly set up kenny florian.

Thiago
Right now the ww division is stacked. The only two people I see ready for a title shot is Fitch and Thiago. Fitch has been mowing through people but hasnt really faught any one big yet on the ww contenders. Thiago was at the same point as fitch was but they gave him a huge oppertunity with karo. I beleive that this match tonight was to decide who gets to face off next for the ww title. Thiago will fight the winner of GSP vs Serra for the title soon.

matt hamil
he will probably just fight some other random guy in the 205 division. They are padding his record right now like they do with most tuf guys. I can see him dropping to 185 eventually to rematch bisping. I really dont see anything big happening from hamil any time soon.

Nate Diaz
will fight manny his next match

James Irving
Will probably fight some other random 205 guy his next fight or hes going to be fed to some one. He doesnt have what it takes to be a contender and at the same time he isnt that marketable either.

Gray Maynard

Hes going to fight some one else in his skill level. Eventually they are gonna put him against one of the other tuf guys floating around in the division and market the hell out of the fight.

Josh Neer
nothings going to happen with him hes just going to fight some other random guy or they will feed him to one of the contenders in the division and see what happens.


hes been doing great and they have been giving him some good competition. I think in a few more fights he will be ready for a title shot if he keeps it up. Maybe a year down the road.

Marcos Aurilio
Not really sure.

Manny
will fight nate in a rematch his next fight

rumble johnson
they will probably put him up against another tuf guy
