Lots of you "sherdoggers" are getting mad at Izzy likely getting the rematch
That's more do to with your lack of logic or ability to look at things objectively than it is with any weird misjustice or favoritism toward Izzy. Common to this forum though.
The reason Strickland got the fight in the first place is cause Izzy keeps an insane schedule, likes to fight every 3-4 months. Izzy was arguably always going to be on this Sydney card, as it was a PPV (not a fight night) and Volk was out. So always Izzy in the main event.
DDP was out, so Izzy not wanting to just chill and wait, did as he always does and calls out next in line, Strickland.
Izzy got Strickland to the dance in the first place.
All of the above, make Dana very happy. And remember this is not the first time Izzy has done this.
Dana also respects Izzy's schedule. That gets lots of Dana points.
Lastly, Dana loves how the last rematch he granted to Izzy turned out - the hype, the moment, the numbers, how Izzy delivered.
So Izzy will in in likelihood get this rematch. Based off what hes done of the company and the sport, and based of what he did for Sean Strickland.
So its hilarious, like in a mocking kind of way, to see all these sherdoggers mad and this fact, when they can't piece together a logical flow in their brains that...
"what a minute, all the things that are likely to get Izzy the immediate rematch.. are all the things that got Sean the title shot in the first place"
