Terence Crawford was absolutely brilliant over 12 rounds of boxing against Canelo Alvarez in the main event of Canelo vs. Crawford on Saturday night in Las Vegas, while Diego Lopes delivered a brutal knockout of Jean Silva in the headline act of Noche UFC. What is your biggest takeaway from the doubleheader of combat sports action? Following Crawford's undisputed super middleweight championship victory over Alvarez, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and Jed Meshew react to a loaded day and night of fights, where Crawford sits currently, where "Bud" goes next, and more. Additionally, they recap Lopes' wild finish of Silva that led to two post-fight bonuses, other highlights from the main card, the pretty rough preliminary slate, answer listener questions about both fight cards, and more.

Diego Lopes isn't stepping out of the championship contender picture just yet. With a resounding win over Jean Silva in Saturday's Noche UFC main event, Lopes kept himself in line for another shot at the featherweight title he fell short of capturing this past April. But just how much closer is he to going another five rounds with Alexander Volkanovski? 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 Lopes as he looks to further separate himself from a crowded 145-pound pack that includes rivals Movsar Evloev and Yair Rodriguez, and former bantamweight champion Aljamain Sterling. Additionally, future matchups are discussed for the fast-rising David Martinez, surging lightweights Alexander Hernandez and Rafa Garcia, and 21-year-old debutant Santiago Luna. Plus, what to do with Kelvin Gastelum after another weight miss debacle, and listener picks to close out the show. Follow Mike Heck: ⁠⁠⁠@m_heckjr⁠ Follow Alexander K.

Nassourdine Imavov checked off the most important box on Saturday with a dominant decision win over Caio Borralho in the main event of UFC Paris. With Dana White setting up a two-fight tryout, of sorts, to face Khamzat Chimaev in his first title defense, was Imavov's performance enough to make him the undeniable guy to face the new champion next?

Darren Till absolutely destroyed Luke Rockhold in the main event of Misfits Boxing 2022 on Saturday in Manchester, England, and the finish of the fight saw Till deliver one of the scariest knockouts in the boxing ring in 2025. What is next for Till, and should Saturday mark the end of the combat sports career — at least from a striking aspect — of Rockhold? Following the event, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and Jed Meshew react to the card, Till's big win, the possibility of Rockhold continuing on, and if Till vs. Carl Froch is the fight to make. Additionally, they discuss Tony Ferguson getting his first win in over six years with a very questionable TKO stoppage of Salt Papi in the co-main event, Dillon Danis making is look easy against Warren Spencer in his MMA bout, and more.

UFC Shanghai goes down in the early morning hours on Saturday, and during Thursday night's weigh-ins, Brian Ortega appeared to be in rough shape ahead of his pivotal matchup with former bantamweight champ Aljamain Sterling. While reports stated the fight was off, it will indeed take place at a catchweight of 153 pounds, despite Ortega looking horrible during his final staredown with Sterling. Should this fight go on? Ahead of this weekend's UFC Fight Night event, MMA Fighting's Jed Meshew and Mike Heck preview the card, react to Ortega's weigh-in drama, and discuss the fight with Sterling. Additionally, they talk the light heavyweight main event between Zhang Mingyang and Johnny Walker, the stakes for the division that needs as much excitement as possible, the heavyweight featured bout between Sergei Pavlovich and Waldo Cortes-Acosta, and much more.
