Santiago Ponzinnibio wants a big name for his next fight.

Ponzinibbio earned a unanimous decision victory over the previously undefeated Miguel Baeza in their three-round war at UFC Vegas 28 last night.

The contest earned Fight of the Night honors as Ponzinibbio was visibly emotional after all the struggles he had to deal with over the course of the last two-plus years.

Now back in the win column, the Argentinian wants to be ranked again in addition to fighting a top name. Targeting a return in the next two or three months, Ponzinibbio also has an idea of who he wants.

“Maybe end of August or September, I will see (when to return),” he said at the post-fight press conference (via BJ Penn). “I would really like to get back into the rankings and give me a tough guy. Maybe Vicente Luque, he’s doing very well. We can do an exciting fight. I respect him a lot and I think we can do a great fight.

“Or the guy who might lose between Stephen Thompson and Gilbert Burns (at UFC 264). For the guy that’s going to walk away, he’s going to go to the belt. The guy who’s going to lose, it’s a really good fight for me to show to the world I am back and I can be champion of the world and stay with the best fighters in the world. For sure I’m going to do an exciting fight again.”

Any of those fights are guaranteed to be bangers. It just depends on whether Ponzinibbio can find himself back in the rankings when they’re updated next week.

Jairzinho Rozenstruik Wants Anyone Ranked Above Him Following Augusto Sakai KO Win

Jairzinho Rozenstruik is only looking towards the top of the heavyweight division.

Jairzinho Rozenstruik is only looking towards the top of the heavyweight division.

Rozenstruik returned to the win column with a first-round TKO win over Augusto Sakai in the UFC Vegas 28 headliner last night. Despite what was an uneventful round overall, the Surinamese star was able to drop Sakai and end the contest with just one second remaining.

Similar to his win over Alistair Overeem where he won with just a second remaining in the fight, this time, Rozenstruik planned on picking up the pace in the last few seconds.

“Actually, I heard the clock and [head coach Michael Babb] say, ‘Hey, this is the last 15 seconds,’” Rozenstruik said at the post-fight press conference (via MMA Fighting). “So I picked it up and pushed the pace and I see he was moving too fast and then ‘bop’ and I put him down.”

After a run of two defeats in his last three outings, Rozenstruik is now looking to establish a winning streak.

As for who he wants next?

Anyone ranked above him as he mentioned a top-five opponent in his post-fight interview. Elaborating further, he also stated he has no preference over the opponent or their fighting style.

“Everybody that’s ranked above, it doesn’t matter what style,” Rozenstruik said. “If this guy’s a wrestler, then I have to wrestle and I have to do my kickboxing. If he’s a kickboxer, then I have to kickbox with him and maybe wrestle with him, so for me it doesn’t matter.

“I try to make myself more of an MMA fighter than just a kickboxer who’s doing MMA.”

Rozenstruik is currently ranked No. 6 in the division.

Jairzinho Rozenstruik Stops Augusto Sakai With Buzzer Beating First Round Knockout – UFC Vegas 28 Highlights

Suriname striking sensation, Jairzinho ‘Bigi Boy’ Rozenstruik is back on the winning track, and as more often than not, in some rather spectacular fashion.

Rozenstruik immediately starts to dictate the pace and land a couple of notable inside low leg kicks to Sakai’s lead left, as the Brazilian attempts to circle and return fire with his hands on occasion. Circling and pressing Sakai to the fence just before the culimination of the very first round, Rozenstruik exploded with a left hook, clipping the Brazilian, before following up with right hand, dropping Sakai.

Swarming just before the klaxon, Rozenstruik knocked Sakai unconscious with just a single second remaining in the opening frame via a handful of hammer fist strikes. The victory marks the Suriname native’s return to the winner’s enclosure following his February loss to Ciryl Gane — and he has sights set on a matchup against contenders ranked higher than him at heavyweight next.

Making her second Octagon walk, the flyweight upstart entered the fray off the back of an eye-catching high kick and strikes stoppage victory over Victoria Leonardo at UFC Fight Island 7 in January of this year — in her promotional bow.
