After his majority decision win over Lerone Murphy in the main event of UFC London, Movsar Evloev called for his shot at the UFC featherweight title and Alexander Volkanovski. Moments later, Volkanovski obliged, accepting the undefeated fighter's challenge. But with the UFC's head-scratching matchmaking practices as of late, should Evloev be concerned he could get leapfrogged again?

On an all-new edition of On To the Next One, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck discusses what could — and should — be next for Evloev after his hard fought victory over Murphy. Additionally, future matchups are discussed for Luke Riley following his co-main event win over Michael Aswell, Michael Page after his win over Sam Patterson in the lackluster featured bout, along with other main card winners Iwo Baraniewski, Christian Leroy Duncan, Danny Silva, and more.

Plus, the listeners get their say with their matchmaking submissions on the second half of the program.

Movsar Evloev picked up the biggest win of his career in the main event of UFC London as he defeated Lerone Murphy, handing the latter his first MMA loss in the process. While the fight was ultra-competitive, and included a rare point deduction for Evloev, a lot of people feel the judges got it wrong — and that it should've been a draw, or a win for Murphy.

Following UFC London, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and Jed Meshew react to the Fight Night card, Evloev's win and the scorecards, how the commentary was during the fight, and if Evloev will get a title shot against Alexander Volkanovski after the win. Additionally, topics include Luke Riley's co-main event win, the lackluster featured bout between Michael Page and Sam Patterson and if it was one of the worst fight's in UFC history, the incredible Mason Jones vs. Axel Sola Fight of the Year contender, and much more.

It’s an MMA double header this weekend.

This Saturday, the UFC returns to the O2 Arena for another edition of UFC London, this time headlined by a possible featherweight title eliminator between undefeated contenders Movsar Evloev and Lerone Murphy. It’s possibly the best fight the UFC has put together so far in 2026, and the stakes are high, with the winner being in prime position to challenge Alexander Volkanovski for the 145 title. But before that, we’ve got 13 other UFC fights, and PFL Madrid on Friday, and No Bets Barred is here to break it all down.

This week, Jed Meshew flies solo to dive into this big MMA weekend. Topics discussed include a big breakdown for Evloev vs. Murphy, why Michael “Venom” Page is back at welterweight against Sam Patterson, a couple of live dogs on the undercard, the best action on Friday at PFL Madrid, the latest step in The Climb, and more.

Tune in for episode 151 of No Bets Barred.

Kevin Vallejos is on a roll. The rising featherweight star made short work of respected veteran Josh Emmett in Saturday’s UFC Vegas 114 main event, and the sky looks to be the limit for Vallejos going forward. A number of notable names make sense for him now, what’s the best option for the 24-year-old super prospect?

On an all-new edition of On To the Next One, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and Alexander K. Lee discuss what could be next for Vallejos after a career-best performance. Additionally, we determine whether Gillian Robertson has done enough to secure a strawweight title shot after outworking Amanda Lemos, plus future matchups are discussed for budding featherweight talents Jose Miguel Delgado and Marwan Rahiki, the mercurial Ion Cutelaba, the always game Charles Johnson, and more.

All that and a slew of fantastic matchmaking suggestions from the listeners.
