Battles we need to see after UFC 250

In the main joint event, we watched former UFC champion Bantamweight Cody Cod Garbrandt return to track after three consecutive knockout games by defeating Knockout on Raphael Assuncao.

Saturday night, UFC promoted its first ever pay-per-view event from the new Apex facility in Las Vegas, Nevada.

In terms of business, the card was an absolute success.

At the main event for UFC 250, we watched UFC's heroine and featherweight Amanda Nunes

In the main joint event, we watched former UFC champion Bantamweight Cody Cod Garbrandt return to track after three consecutive knockout games by defeating Knockout on Raphael Assuncao.

Other major points of the main card included impressive victories such as Aljamain Sterling and Sean O'Malley, while the lower card featured major victories from talents such as Cody Stamann and Alex Perez, to name a few.

So where do the stars of this action-packed card go from here? As always, there are a lot of interesting matches to play, but these are the six fights that we hope to see next.

Amanda Nunes v. Valentina Shevchenko

At this point, what do you do even with Amanda Nunes?

UFC's badminton and puntamweight champion has ever won the best in its governing divisions: Miesha Tate, Ronda Rousey, Cris Cyborg, Holly Holm and Germaine de Randamie and at the main event for UFC 250, former Invicta champion featherweight Felicia Spencer.

From here, you can always match Nunes with Megan Anderson in featherweight or Irene Aldana in body weight, but good luck in convincing anyone that either of these two games will be competitive.

Among the few remaining options available to the largest fighter in the sport, perhaps the best is a third battle with Valentina Shevchenko, who currently rules the UFC flyweight division with an iron fist. Nunes Shevchenko was defeated twice by the weight of the Pantam, but both fighting were incredibly close. For all Shevchenko's talents, you'll enter into a third battle with Nunes as an important underdog, but this credible challenge we'll find for "The Lioness" at this point.

In the worst case, it's a pay-per-view confrontation between two of the most dominant heroes in the promo.
