Jared Cannonier isn’t interesting in anything other than a title shot or a No. 1 contender fight, and it’s hard to argue against him. Cannonier (14-5 MMA, 7-5 UFC) looked impressive in a five-round decision win over a durable Kelvin Gastelum (17-8 MMA, 11-8 UFC) in the headlining bout of this past weekend’s UFC on ESPN 29 event. Cannonier was originally expected to face Brazilian contender Paulo Costa, but “Borrachinha” passed on the proposed matchup in favor of an October booking with Marvin Vettori.
