One middleweight is likely to take a jump up in the rankings Saturday.
Derek Brunson and Darren Till have been headed in different directions as of late.
The 37-year-old Brunson is surging, having won four straight fights including a unanimous decision over Kevin Holland back in March. The 28-year-old Till has lost three of his last four matches including a hard-fought unanimous decision defeat at the hands of Robert Whittaker last July.
Those are the trends heading into their UFC Fight Night main event Saturday in Las Vegas, where Brunson or Till will look to make a dent in the middleweight standings. Entering the bout, Brunson is ranked No. 5 and Till seventh in the middleweight standings.
Will Brunson extend his streak with a win over the younger competitor or will Till bring the veteran’s surge to an end in brutal fashion?
