I'm not mad. I already watched two bouts of him vs. Nate Diaz. Who wants to watch re-runs?You're so mad at him that even now, that he doesn't have a title so doesn't have title related obligations, you want him to be forced to fight contenders...

Guys he didn't face yet? Re-runs? Are you intoxicated?That's not the reason you mentioned earlier. You just made it up to sound better
"lineal" champ is meaninless BS - de facto he's not a champ so these fights are irrelevant.
And his last FW fight was 3 years ago - and I'm pretty sure he's only getting fatter
The title doesn't matter that much. The sport of fighting should be valued over the titles. And the business of fighting is what the UFC will value over both the sport and the titles. Fortunately, putting on good fights matters more than "maintaining divisional hierarchy" to the UFC's business. So generally, fight fans and I are more likely to get what we want than title fans and you.Conor has no business fighting for a title. This gets the Diaz Bros exposure right in time for Nick's comeback, and lets the UFC get their payoff while keeping their title safe from Conorrhea. They can then bank it and play harder ball in negotiations.
I like it.
Meaningful to the game of rankings or meaningful to the sport of fighting?This fight would represent everything that is wrong with modern era MMA, as did the rematch.
Can we have meaningful fights please?
Useless to anyone/everyone? Or just you?A couple of retired LW fighting another useless fight at WW.

maybe you should learn what 'lineal champion' means... he is the lineal champ of fw and lw whether you like it or not lol.
as for not being a fw - he has 7 fights at fw, 1 at lw and 2 at ww - what weight class is he then :s
Dude no one gives a shit about "lineal champs" except "hardcore" nerds who don't even buy PPVs. Your opinion doesn't matter.
UFC should absolutely make this fight -- at this point they can't risk putting McGregor in any more championship fights, they just need to put him in fan-friendly fights that sell.
This one is an absolute no-brainer.
