Which UFC champion is next to lose their belt?

Title fights are popping off soon, along with some massive events coming our way.

Who do you guys think drops their belt next?

The biggest shock lately was definitely when Rafael dos Anjos absolutely dismantled Anthony Pettis to snatch the Lightweight title. Not just because he won, but how he did it... pure dominance and straight-up brute strength.

Honestly, I’m looking at Cain Velasquez. He’s up soon, but Fabricio Werdum has been locked in for a while now. Cain is coming off an injury and won't be at 100%... last time he stepped in there was October 2013, which is a lifetime ago.

Same goes for the Welterweight division where Robbie Lawler is fighting soon, and Chris Weidman defending his Middleweight strap against Vitor Belfort.

Then there's Ronda Rousey in the seventh, but zero chance she loses that belt.

Another huge one is in the Featherweight division with the biggest fight in UFC history...

Aldo vs McGregor is coming up fast. A lot of people think Conor McGregor might finally knock Jose Aldo off the throne. Despite all the trash talk, McGregor is a legit fighter—he's proven it. The chances are definitely there.

It's all getting pretty wild. Hard to say who's actually in danger because, realistically, everyone is.

I skipped Jones vs Johnson in the light heavyweight division since Jon Jones was involved in a car accident today, so we don't even know if that fight is still happening.🙂

my voice goes to Cain... mostly because he's been totally out of form, while Werdum is ready to go. Werdum's ground game is elite, and he can hold his own in the standup against Cain without much trouble.

I mean, Weidman could honestly lose this one to Belfort. It might actually be our first title change, I guess. And yeah, I'm with you on Werdum—Cain is gonna have a hell of a time in there.

I’m all for it. It would totally wreck the UFC’s big plans to host Weidman vs Rockhold in New York City, especially since they fought so hard just to get this sport legalized and back in the spotlight there...

The whole grudge thing comes down to how everyone's already written off Vitor Belfort. Since the new testing rules and the ban on TRT, people think he's washed. But honestly? I bet most of you would love to see Vitor grab one more belt. The guy’s a legend—if I remember right, he stepped into the UFC when he was barely 19...

Now that would be one hell of a story...

I don't follow anything below middleweight, so I'll just give my take on these heavier divisions.

I agree regarding Cain—he hasn't fought in a year and a half, so who knows what kind of shape he's in. Then again, knowing him, he’ll charge in like a wasp. Still, I think Cain takes Werdum. I'm not a fan of Werdum's style; he plays it too tactical, which isn't my thing. I prefer fighters who go for the KO. 😁

Jon Jones is undefeated, but I actually think Anthony Johnson could pull off an upset here. Anthony is pure aggression—always hunting the finish, and I dig that. He's an exciting fighter, and even though he isn't the favorite, he gets my vote. And yeah, it would be a total disaster if they pulled Jones from the UFC 187 card because of that incident he was involved in. We'll see in a few days if there's a suspension coming or not. Honestly? I doubt it. From what I've read, the police just need him for questioning; I don't see him facing any real penalties.

In the middleweight division, I still think Weidman beats Vitor Belfort. Look, Vitor Belfort is a legend and has the experience, but if you ask me, Weidman wins this.

Werdum’s a tactician, but he didn't look all that impressive against Anthony Johnson until that knee landed.

I'm with you on Anthony Johnson. Reminds me of a young Mike Tyson... just charges at you with that pure animal instinct. Really hope this fight doesn't get scrapped.

Now I'm reading that Jones fled the scene. In my book, the only reason he'd bolt from an accident like that is if he was high on coke and knew if he crashed again, he'd be absolutely screwed.

He's probably laying low right now... basically "on the run."😁 Waiting for the coke to clear his system so he can turn himself in. He'll likely sit tight, talk to a lawyer, and do the smartest thing possible.

It's wild that nearly 24 hours after news like this drops, there's still no official word from the UFC or big names like Ariel Helwani or Karyn Bryant. Nobody's said anything besides a few MMA sites and people on forums speculating about what went down.

If Jones is out, I have a feeling Johnson won't want some random replacement. This is a massive opportunity for him, so I bet he'll insist on facing Jones instead.

Well, Jones lost the title. Does that make me the winner of the poll? 😬

Jack, this isn't worth it 😁
