    -Ray Borg-2 wins in a row in Smolka and top 5 Formiga

    -Dustin Ortiz vs Brandon Moreno winner (fight next Saturday). Ortiz is coming off a win over top 15 Makovsky and Moreno is coming of 2 top 15 wins over Smolka (who was top 10 at the time) and Ryan Benoit.

    -Sergio Pettis if (big if) he beats Henry Cejudo at UFC 211.

    -Benavidez vs Nguyen winner (fight June 10th). Doesn't seem like the UFC wants to go with the 3rd Benavidez fight, but he will have beaten 7 ranked opponents in a row with this win (Nguyen doesn't have much of a shot).


    Those are the options. My guess is they go with Borg, hes coming off the biggest win. Formiga has recent wins over
    Ortiz and Reis. Supposedly Garbrandt wants to go down to 125 and fight DJ, but hes got Dillashaw 3 months from now so DJ will likely take another fight in late July or August.
