UFC San Diego: Vera vs. Cruz - Fights to make

UFC San Diego was a far better event than the UFC deserved, given how slapdash much of the card’s booking felt. Marlon Vera picked up a statement win in the main event, Nate Landwehr & David Onama put on a fight of the year contender in the co-main, and Yazmin Jauregui made a splash in her UFC debut against Iasmin Lucindo.

So, how many more fights does Vera need to win before he’s the top contender in the bantamweight division? Is there any way we can get Landwehr vs. Shane Burgos booked, like, tomorrow? And is Gerald Meerschaert suddenly a darkhorse contender at 185?
