228 needs another big fight, how bout Smith vs Gustafsson for the interim title?

[SUBLIME FAN]

No matter when or weather it’s for the interim title (should be imo) Gus vs Lionheart is without a doubt the fight to make. I think that’s one hell of a matchup and I cannot wait for it.

Gets smashed by Thiago Santos

Beats two men who are 5+ years past their best

Gets a title shot

Pass on that

 

[Eater of Souls]

Gus is hurt.

2 fights in the current ufc is usually 18 months. Reward fighters for being active

Reward him with a bonus then. A dude who got smashed by a MW and beat up two old men has no business in a title fight

 

[Soul On Ice]

Interim title is a waste of time
DC is never going back to 205
Gus X Someone for the vacant title.

 

[BenRichards]

Gus will return when volkan/Luke/Yoel are ready.. and yeah probably for an interim title

But a guy with 1 win in the last 23 months over an old guy deserves it

Gus is hurt.

No he’s lazy

Smith is the future of LHW.

Had he started his MMA career at LHW instead of dehydrating himself to make MW the whole time he very could be have been a champ.

So far 2-0 over 2 former LHW champs

Much better at LHW.

Based off his performances alone give him the gus fight

War Lionheart!!

 

[Bend NvR Break]

Gus is on his period again

 

[RealMadridMMA]

They said it was a minor injury I think. Romero or Rockhold vs Gustafsson for the interim or vacant title next. Smith vs Oezdemir, Manuwa vs Teixeira.

 

[Joseph_McBride]

If Gust is ready by then, Gust vs Yoel please

More than a career journeyman who just beat a couple guys who should be retired. Yes

In a normal division Gustafsson wouldn't deserve it either but LHW is dog shit so here we are...

You are rewarding inactivity which is a major problem in the sport.

Neither deserves it. Why u don't book it.

Gus has the best streak currently at LHW, yes even with just two wins. Glover and Jan B are better wins than Evans and Shogun.

Anthony Smith is less deserving of a LHW title shot than Chael Sonnen was. That is the actual problem in this sport

Bullshit interim belts fought for by bullshit contenders

I could still make about 7-8 more deserving title fights even in this trash heap of a division
