On To the Next One: Matches to make after controversial UFC Vegas 123 event
Published
17 hours agoon
November 2, 2026
UFC Vegas 123 went down this past Saturday at the Meta APEX. The Halloween-themed event ended in controversy following referee Dan Miragliotta's decision to stand up Renato Moicano and Tom Nolan with Moicano in a dominant position, thus leading to Nolan getting the finish the third round. Where does Nolan go from this victory where the headlines are solely about the referee?
On an all-new edition of On To the Next One, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and Alexander K. Lee discuss what's next for Nolan after getting his biggest win, yet not getting the rub despite not doing anything wrong. Additionally, future matchups are discussed for Jacobe Smith following his impressive win over Randy Brown in the co-main event, Cody Durden after defeating Ode Osbourne in the featured bout, along with fellow main card winners Luana Santos and Jean-Paul Lebosnoyani, and more.
Plus, your matchmaking suggestions during the second half of the program.

Rosas Jr. has accepted a short-notice grappling matchup against
Colby
Covington after Dillon
Danis withdrew.
Danis was scheduled to face Covington in a submission-only match on
Nov. 3 at Pala Pellicone in Rome. However, Hype FC CEO Armand
Martirosian announced at Sunday's press conference that Danis had
pulled out. “El Nino Problema†stepped in to face the former
interim
Ultimate Fighting Championship welterweight titleholder.

ahead of their RAF matches
Rosas, who was attending the press conference, volunteered when
Martirosian called for a replacement.
“Let's do it, f*ck it… Chiwiwis!†Rosas Jr. said at the
presser.
Covington competed at welterweight in the UFC, while Rosas is a
bantamweight. Covington last fought in December 2024, losing to
Joaquin
Buckley, and has since notified the promotion of his retirement
from mixed martial arts. Rosas has won six straight and is coming
off a fifth-round technical knockout victory over Raoni
Barcelos.
Both are scheduled to compete in Real American Freestyle wrestling
matches this month. Covington faces Khamzat
Chimaev at RAF Abu Dhabi on Nov. 14, while Rosas takes on
Clay
Guida at RAF 15 on Nov. 28.
