Dana White noncommittal regarding next No. 1 contender at featherweight
Movsar Evloev hasn’t been guaranteed a title shot despite his win over Lerone Murphy at UFC London.
Evloev and Murphy (17-1) put their undefeated records on the line in the main event at UFC London on Saturday. Despite getting penalized due to a low blow, Evloev earned a majority decision win over Murphy. While the fight was widely considered a featherweight title eliminator, Dana White hasn’t guaranteed the next featherweight title shot to Evloev.
“Possibly, yes,” White said about Evloev potentially fighting for the title next. “Again, I’m not even thinking about that; the fight just ended.”
