What's next for UFC 250 winners?

Another UFC event is in the books.

Amanda Nunes beat up Felicia Spencer for five rounds to earn the unanimous decision and retain her women's featherweight title in Saturday's headliner. Meanwhile, there was a trio of huge results in the bantamweight division.

Here's what should come next for the notable winners of UFC 250 in Las Vegas.

Amanda Nunes

Defeated: Felicia Spencer by unanimous decision
Should fight: Aspen Ladd if she beats Sara McMann

As Nunes continues her dominant reign across two divisions, it's becoming increasingly apparent that actual challenges for the pound-for-pound queen are few and far between.

After capturing her second belt in 2018, Nunes committed to moving between weight classes and defending both titles. And she's made good on her promise, as the 32-year-old became the first fighter in UFC history to defend two different belts while holding them simultaneously with her win over Spencer.

It seems likely Nunes' next fight will take place at bantamweight, and though that division is deeper than featherweight, there still aren't many fighters who deserve a title bout and have yet to face the "Lioness."

While it's not ideal, Ladd should get the next shot if she gets past McMann at UFC Fight Night on June 27.

Ladd has been considered a rising star at 135 pounds for a few years, and she's evolved into a contender with a 4-1 record in the UFC. But it's the way she beats her opponents that is most impressive, with three of her Octagon wins coming via TKO. And if she beats former title challenger McMann, that'd be a solid name added to her resume.

The biggest criticism of booking Nunes-Ladd would be that the latter is still just 25 years old and probably shouldn't get rushed into a title fight. Also, a win over McMann would only be Ladd's second in a row. However, since Nunes has already beaten the likes of Holly Holm and Germaine de Randamie, the UFC doesn't have much of a choice.

Cody Garbrandt

Defeated: Raphael Assuncao by second-round knockout
Should fight: Marlon Moraes

Garbrandt badly needed this win, as he came in riding a three-fight skid and with many people doubting him. After his walk-off knockout of Assuncao, the former champ is absolutely back in the mix at 135 pounds.

Now he's due for another big fight, and it should come against former title challenger Moraes, who's ranked No. 1 in the division.

Bantamweight is loaded with contenders: Petr Yan and Jose Aldo are getting ready to fight this summer for the vacant belt and Aljamain Sterling already has dibs on the winner. Moraes and Garbrandt seem to be the odd men out in the title picture, so a fight between them makes sense. And depending on when the bout would happen, the winner could possibly receive a title shot.

Stylistically, this would be an awesome matchup. Garbrandt and Moraes are two of the hardest hitters in the division, and it would surely end in a brutal knockout.

Aljamain Sterling

Defeated: Cory Sandhagen by first-round submission
Should fight: Petr Yan vs. Jose Aldo winner

Sterling should really be the one fighting Yan for the vacant belt.

By making a gigantic statement with his win over Sandhagen (his first UFC loss), Sterling cemented himself as the No. 1 contender and left no doubt that he deserves a title shot.

"Funk Master" extended his winning streak to five, with this most recent one arguably the most impressive of his Octagon tenure. Sterling attacked his opponent as soon as the fight started and quickly sunk in a rear-naked choke, putting Sandhagen to sleep.

Sterling was considered a future contender as early as his UFC debut in 2014 but suffered a few setbacks along the way. However, he's really come into his own the past two years, and he absolutely needs to fight the winner of Yan-Aldo for UFC gold.

Sean O'Malley

Defeated: Eddie Wineland by first-round knockout
Should fight: Rob Font

O'Malley made it clear against Wineland - a 35-year-old veteran who's been around for more than a decade - that he's for real, and now "Sugar" deserves a big step up in competition.

The 10th-ranked Font should be his next opponent. Font is 7-3 in the promotion, for which he's competed since 2014. Historically, the Massachusetts resident has beaten mid-tier fighters but lost to top contenders such as Assuncao and John Lineker.

Like O'Malley, Font prefers to strike and has a lot of power, so a fight between the two would definitely result in fireworks.

It's important the UFC doesn't rush O'Malley into too big of a fight because that could ultimately backfire and ruin his potential. Font would be a good litmus test to see exactly how good O'Malley is, and a victory would all but confirm he's a contender.
