Mick Maynard’s Shoes: What’s next for Jailton Almeida after UFC on ABC 4 win?

Jailton Almeida continued the unbeaten start to his octagon tenure on Saturday when he ran through Jairzinho Rozenstruik in the UFC on ABC 4 headliner.

Almeida (19-2 MMA, 5-0 UFC) shined under the spotlight of his first UFC main event when he overwhelmed Rozenstruik (13-5 MMA, 7-5 UFC) on the mat en route to a first-round submission win in the heavyweight bout at Spectrum Center in Charlotte, N.C.

After the fight, the Brazilian called for a showdown with Tai Tuivasa next. However, is that the best option as Almeida navigates his path forward?

Watch the video above for thoughts and analysis on Almeida’s future after UFC on ABC 4.
