Brendan “All In” Allen is back in the octagon come April. But, against who?
Brendan Allen Returns
UFC’s #5 ranked Middleweight Brendan Allen is coming off of a TKO victory in October against Reiner De Ridder. With that win, a lot of fans looked at Brendan Allen as a potential next title challenger against current champion, Khamzat Chimaev. Well, it looks like Brendan is looking at one more fight to make sure UFC can’t deny him a title shot.
Brendan took to instagram today to post some pictures of a past fight, and he captioned the post with “Ready to start 2026 off with a bang! April we stamp our spot as next for the belt!” While the post gave no indication on who exactly his opponent would be, fans immediately speculated that former champion Dricus Du Plessis could be next, as he currently has no fight announced, and is coming off a championship loss.
Other names ranked ahead of Brendan include Anthony Hernandez, Sean Strickland and Nassourdine Imavov. Though, Hernandez and Strickland are set to fight each other next month. Stay tuned for an official fight announcement.
