Brendan Allen put on a fantastic display at UFC Vegas 82 on Saturday night and raked in a performance bonus in the process. The rising star managed to out-grapple a man known for his submission prowess in Paul Craig and cement himself as a real contender at 185 lbs. From the opening minute up until his eventual rear naked choke stoppage over his opponent, Allen was in the driver’s seat. Following his huge win, the Louisiana talent made some comments regarding his future during the post-fight press conference. Allen believes that one more win will put him in line with a shot at UFC gold and told the world who he expects to fight next. “Whoever Mick [Maynard], Hunter [Campbell], and Dana [White] say, that’s who we’re fighting,” Allen said when discussing possible matchups against Robert Whittaker and Khamzat Chimaev
