Match Ups to make at Welterweight

1) Kamaru Usman vs Gilbert Burns (UFC Welterweight Championship)

2) Khamzat Chimaev vs Leon Edwards

3) Colby Covington vs Jorge Masvidal

4) Stephen Thompson vs Michael Chiesa

5) Neil Magny vs Tyron Woodley

6) Robbie Lawler vs Tony Ferguson

Notes

1) If Leon defeats Khamzat , Leon fights Usman for the title next in a rematch (If Masvidal defeats Colby)

2) If Colby defeats Masvidal , Colby fights Usman for the title in a rematch (If Khamzat defeats Leon)

3) If both Leon and Colby win their fights (Leon vs Colby will be title eliminator to see who get to fight Usman in the rematch for the Welterweight Title)

4) If both Khamzat and Masvidal win their fights (Khamzat gets the next title shot because Usman vs Masvidal was pretty one sided)

5) Lawler vs Ferguson would be a great stand up fight at 170 lbs. I think Ferguson should move up and Lawler would be the ideal candidate. Neither guy will get a title shot in the near future

6) Neil Magny is on 3 fight win streak and Tyron Woodley is on 3 fight losing streak. It would be a step up for Magny against Tyron Woodley (A former champ)

7) Chiesa vs Thompson would be interesting . Chiesa is on 3 fight win streak and a win over Thompson would get him in the top 5 at Welterweight
