The show in Detroit in December 2018 featured nine finishes in 13 fights – including six of eight on the prelims. But when it came time for bonuses, the UFC gave out two Fights of the Night, including one to Eddie Alvarez and Justin Gaethje for their main-card lightweight banger. Alvarez still was in the process of trying to rebound from the loss of the lightweight title to Conor McGregor in November 2016. His follow-up was a no contest against Dustin Poirier when he landed illegal knees. But Gaethje was the one with perhaps more eyes on him.

The Hawaiian considers himself a classic UFC champion, and that means defending his belt with regularity. Holloway (19-3 MMA, 15-3 UFC), who made his first title defenses with a third-round TKO of Jose Aldo (26-4 MMA, 9-3 UFC) at UFC 218 this month, is likely lined up for a fight with former UFC lightweight champ Frankie Edgar (22-5-1 MMA, 16-5-1 UFC) next. After that the likes of Brian Ortega (13-0 MMA, 5-0 UFC) and Josh Emmett (13-1 MMA, 4-1 UFC) could be in line, and the champ has already showered them with praise .

Champion Max Holloway made his first successful title defense, Brian Ortega scored a slick submission in a televised main event, and Josh Emmett connected with a massive knockout in the co-headliner of a network-televised fight card. Holloway (19-3 MMA, 15-3 UFC), who defended his title with a third-round TKO of Jose Aldo (26-4 MMA, 9-3 UFC) at UFC 218, said he liked what he saw out of the latter two, who are making a surge up the 145-pound rankings toward a crack at the gold. Ortega (13-0 MMA, 5-0 UFC) remained undefeated in MMA when he tapped Cub Swanson with a tight choke in the UFC Fight Night 123, and Emmett (13-1 MMA, 4-1 UFC) made a statement when he put the lights out on Ricardo Lamas at UFC on FOX 26. Both men beat opponents who have long been ranked in the top five, and Holloway said that’s a big deal. “I was impressed by the two wins by those guys – of course,” Holloway told MMAjunkie.

That’s just going to leave more opportunities for him to swoop and get an eventual title shot, he recently told MMAjunkie. Felder (15-3 MMA, 7-3 UFC), who’s fresh off a violent stoppage victory over Charles Oliveira (22-8 MMA, 10-8 UFC) at UFC 218 earlier this month, discussed that strategy when asked about another UFC 218 fight. Related UFC 218 results: Paul Felder survives Charles Oliveira's ground game, gets second-round KO Later on that card, after a week of debating the criteria for the unofficial “ Most Violent Fighter ” title in the UFC, Eddie Alvarez (29-5 MMA, 4-2 UFC) scored a a third-round TKO win over fellow slugger Justin Gaethje (18-1 MMA, 1-1 UFC) in a bout that lived up to its “ Fight of the Night ” expectations
