Brendan Allen Sets Sights on Reinier de Ridder’s Spot in the Rankings

The middleweight contender Allen sees UFC Vancouver as his path back to the top five: “A great performance puts me right back at number four. Maybe Chimaev calls me next. Worst case, we get Dricus Du Plessis next, and I beat him up.” Allen said he’s long targeted de Ridder, calling their October 18 matchup “a fight I had to jump on.”
