What is next for Rich Clementi?
The old vet came away with a big win on Saturday and it was a satisfying one over his biggest enemy. The win also makes him 2-0 since re-dropping to the lightweight division in September. So is Clementi ready to make a run at the top contenders at 155lbs? No. That may be a cold response, but it’s the truth. At 31-years-old Rich has become as good as he is going to get — which is pretty damn good considering his 30-12-1 record. In the UFC though, he will remain a journeyman. Clementi has adequate hands, good ground skills, and most of his fights end without going to the judges this will all help him stick around for awhile. A perfect candidate for his next opponent would be Clay Guida on a PPV main card. It would give Guida a chance to fight easier competition after a string of tough bouts and it would give Clementi a chance to defeat an established contender.
