Things have been a little slow the past couple weeks in mixed martial arts, but the year will end with a bang, as December features a big slate of important fights.
There are several matchups which will have major implications on both their respective divisions and, in some cases, the pound-for-pound list. Matches such as:
- Kamaru Usman vs. Colby Covington at welterweight
- Max Holloway vs. Alexander Volkanosvki and Brian Ortega vs. Chan Sung Jung at featherweight
- Amanda Nunes vs. Germaine de Randamie and Aspen Ladd vs. Yana Kunitskaya at women’s bantamweight
- Jose Aldo vs. Marlon Moraes at men’s bantamweight
Those are just some of the matchups over the next several weeks which will have a major impact on the future. What might they mean for the USA TODAY Sports/MMA Junkie rankings? Let MMA Junkie’s “Gorgeous” George Garcia and John Morgan walk you through the changes in the video above.
