UFC 188: Velasquez vs. Werdum post-fight results - Fights to make for main card fighters

UFC 188 is in the books, so what's next for the main card fighters? Mookie Alexander plays fantasy matchmaker in another edition of Fights to Make.

We're all done with UFC 188, and from it we've got ourselves a new heavyweight champion. Fabricio Werdum started out his UFC career 2-2, didn't want to take a pay cut, ended up getting released because of it, and now he's made the most of his return by running through the division en route to usurping Cain Velasquez atop the heavyweight throne. Werdum has solidified himself as one of the greatest heavyweights to ever compete in the sport, and he can add to his legacy with some successful title defenses along the way.
