Following the Fight Night card, how can Usman bounce back, and where does du Plessis go after getting back in the win column? On an all-new edition of Between the Links, the panel discusses the fallout of UFC Oklahoma City, those suggesting Usman should call it a career following the loss to du Plessis, and how the middleweight division shifts with \"DDP\" getting his hand raised. Additionally, topics may include RAF 11 capped off by Colby Covington's win over Arman Tsarukyan, Belal Muhammad attacking Covington at the press conference and their announced matchup for RAF 12, Magomed Ankalaev's return at UFC Abu Dhabi, and much more.
