That’s a tough sell buddy. Ortega is at the top of the division while Mendes has only just returned with a W over... I don’t even know where Jury is/was ranked... but Mendes definitely aint gettin Ortega. Mendes vs Frankie II sounds right to me.
If he is he is right at #5
1. Max
2. Ortega
3. Aldo
4. Edgar
I dont really think he's done much more to earn it than say, Zombie, Bellator champ Pitbull, Cub, or Stephens.
How in the blue hell is this suppose to be an example of him using his reach advantage?
I'm beyond worried about today's MMA fans. They truly don't even slightly grasp the sport their watching.
He framed the distance with his left arm, and loaded up the uppercut. Im guessing youve never taken classes for any form of striking
