UFC Austin was a thrill. The main event bout between Josh Emmett and Calvin Kattar may have been just a touch more cautious than fans would have hoped, but on a card where nine of thirteen fights ended inside the distance, fans were left with little to complain about in terms of entertainment value. Kevin Holland made it clear he’s a force at welterweight, Damir Ismagulov continued his lightweight rise, and Gregory Rodrigues kept his status as a must-see action talent.
So, is Emmett the next man to challenge for featherweight gold? Is it time for Holland to get a shot at the welterweight rankings?
