Reinier de Ridder and Robert Whittaker are now heading in two very different directions in the UFC's middleweight division following de Ridder's split decision win in the main event of UFC Abu Dhabi this past Saturday. Is de Ridder now in line to fight for the UFC title, and is Whittaker out of the championship picture at 185 for good?

On an all-new edition of Between the Links, the panel reacts to this past weekend's headliner and what could be next for both de Ridder and Whittaker in the fallout. Additionally, topics include referes Jason Herzog's non-stoppage in the controversial Steven Nguyen vs. Mohammad Yahya fight at UFC Abu Dhabi, the UFC's return to the APEX this Saturday for UFC Vegas 108 headlined by Tatsuro Taira vs. Hyun Sung Park, news and notes for this past week including Aaron Pico's new matchup against Lerone Murphy at UFC 319, Dan Hooker ripping the UFC over tickets, Tom Aspinall taking shots at Michael Chandler, and more.

Host Mike Heck moderates the matchup between MMA Fighting's Jed Meshew and José Youngs.
