LAS VEGAS – After knocking out Ryan LaFlare in the UFC 229 opener, Tony Martin ’s first order of business was to call his shot. Before the fight, Martin (14-4 MMA, 6-4 UFC) had heard through the grapevine that he and LaFlare (14-3 MMA, 7-3 UFC) were considered by the UFC the most boring fighters on the roster, and the loser was going to be cut. When he flattened LaFlare with a brutal high kick , he was amped to dodge a pink slip. He let UFC commentator Joe Rogan know just how much with a series of expletives – and a matchmaking request. “I told him to tell (expletive Donald) Cerrone and Mike Perry that they’re next,” Martin told reporters after his UFC Fight Pass streamed win at T-Mobile Arena
