this guy literally says he’s not going to defend the belt against lightweights in his own division, and he’s made good on that promise so far. idk what sort of fight fan you are, but most people expect the champ to at least fight. if he pulls this shit for another year, absolutely he should be stripped, and nothing of value will be lost.

good, if it happens.

if he does that, good. that’s his job.

favored? probably no one. thats pretty typical, as the champ is usually favored against the rest of the division.
but that doesn’t mean they can’t beat him, and that doesn’t mean islam should be allowed to skip his division. there is only one path to greatness, and it goes through everyone.
