USA TODAY Sports/MMA Junkie rankings, Sept. 7: Behold blond Brunson
Five-fight winning streaks in the UFC don’t come easy, but Derek Brunson is currently enjoying just such a run.
After Brunson (23-7 MMA, 14-5 UFC) scored an impressive submission win over Darren Till at UFC Fight Night 191, the middleweight contender is unbeaten since his November 2018 loss to now-champ Israel Adesanya. Brunson believes his next fight should be for the UFC title, pending the result of a planned matchup between Adesanya and Robert Whittaker.
