After her impressive second-round submission win over former champion Holly Holm in the main event of UFC Vegas 77, Mayra Bueno Silva has certainly made a case to fight for the bantamweight title recently vacated by Amanda Nunes. Was the victory enough to push Bueno Silva ahead of either Julianna Pena or Raquel Pennington, or is there more work to be done? On an all-new edition of On To the Next One, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and guest host Jed Meshew attempt to answer that question from a matchmaking perspective following Saturday's card at the APEX. Additionally, future matchups are discussed for Holm, Jack Della Maddalena after his very close split decision win over Bassil Hafez in the co-main event, along with fellow main card winners Francisco Prado, Jun Yong Park, Norma Dumont, Nazim Sadykhov, and more.

Fresh off the incredible UFC 290, the world's premiere MMA promotion returned with another APEX offering, UFC Vegas 77, and while the card as whole was somewhat forgettable, the main event gave us something to talk about as Mayra Bueno Silva staked her claim to a bantamweight title shot by submitting former champion Holly Holm in the second round. Following UFC Vegas 77, MMA Fighting's Jed Meshew, Eric Jackman, and José Youngs react to Bueno Silva's big win, Jack Della Maddalena's difficult test against short-notice opponent Bassil Hafez in the co-main event, the lightweight futures of prospects Francisco Prado and Nazim Sadykhov, the consistent entertainment value of "The Iron Turtle" Jun Yong Park, and what was quite possibly the final women's featherweight fight in UFC history.

Following an epic UFC 290 event, the UFC returns to the APEX on Saturday for UFC Vegas 77, and with the women's bantamweight title currently vacant, the stakes are high for headliners Holly Holm and Mayra Bueno Silva. But could the stakes have been even higher by adding the title recently vacated by Amanda Nunes? MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and Shaheen Al-Shatti discuss the main event between Holm and Bueno Silva, the stakes involved in the bantamweight tilt, if the belt should've been on the line, and, at worst, if a title shot could await the winner following Amanda Nunes' retirement. Additionally, they'll discuss the card as a whole, Jack Della Maddalena getting rebooked against a promotional newcomer in the main event, the backstage pull-apart between Norma Dumont and Chelsea Chandler, and more.
