It's always going to be near impossible to prove a ducking claim. Professional fighters get into their career by fighting people, but it is a career, so we can't really blame them for accepting "better" fights. It's like our Leon-Belal back and forth too. I'll contend that Mike COULD have asked...
Like I said, I don't listen to the guy, but every new statement im reading here is just worse and worse.
I've had plenty of people I've sparred with who will go high speeds to be impressive, but no contact so they never get challenged, with a few saying stuff like "oh you can't block that...
I mean, I had only popped in here to correct the narrative about Yoel being suspended when he wasn't and the veiled pass at the test he failed. But if ya like, I'll find you the quote of Bisping himself directly asking for it...
That's true. There are certainly levels to how legitimate we can see people are, and his seem to only go as high as it can without actually being tested in the public eye. Hell, even Joe did your usual regional level tournies
I was just thinking purely on the MMA level, since that's what we're...
Not sure MJW had much of a chance to compete, considering his age.
For comparison's sake, he's sitting across from Rampage who is an early and old legend of the sport. Rampage turned 26 the day he powerbombed Arona. MJW was coming up on 37 in a few months.
Only the really early nhb guys, who...
Hello new goal posts. Not quite sure where the old ones went, but it's always nice to meet new friends

UFC president Dana White had previously remarked that the fight between...
Well, Perez and Dvorak are #8 and #14 respectively at fly, both on a 3 fight losing streak. Calvin Kattar is #9 losing 3. Ya also got #14 Reyes on a 4 fight streak, Tuivasa at #10 on 4 as well.

It's a conundrum. My answer there is that, most likely, it's due to some rankers not ranking him at LW, since he'll likely continue at FW, so those rankings drag down his average
True, but that also harkens back to my point on: a fight company shouldn't put on a fight where they won't or shouldn't give the lower guy what the higher one has if they happen to win.
It was nice that Serra won the comebacks, but the fact that everyone coming out of his GSP match thought of...
Romero was suspended from January 12, 2016 to July 12, 2016. (I know he fails the "eye test" but tainted supplements don't belong in quotes here. It's one of the most open and shut tainted supplements case in the history of the UFC)
Bisping won the belt June 4, 2016.
Bisping vs Hendo was...
That's the way to do it: say that you'll do literally everything in order to secure the fight and sell yourself on the crazy, low IQ approach with wild striking for months on order to secure the fight. The second the fight is signed, "I'll choke him out of I want."
So let's not get dredged down on 'feeling' when it comes to booking Belal as a challenger cuz this business is all about money and buys. Now Suga gets buys, but let's get deep into our feelings as to why Leon doesn't. See, as a black guy from the UK, Leon is only hampered because of racism. But...
