Fuck this division.
The UFC have proven over the time span of about 5 years that they don’t give a fuck about it. Nothing but fuckery by the UFC, cherry picking, and ducking at the top.
1 - Usman. Cherry picking clown no longer in the division. Get him the fuck out of the WW rankings you assholes.
2 - Belal. Already at least a year past his earned TS. He’s earned it. And was publicly PROMISED the TS after Colby.
3 - Shavkat. The clear next number 1, after Belal. But may just end up sitting for a while. Or risks his rank fighting somebody behind him. Unless of course the UFC does actually break the ironclad public, verbal contract put they put forward to both Belal, and Burns.
4 - Colby. Completely, and utterly.. He, and Dana can fuck eachother.
This is a fucking joke.
Made Edwards wait much longer than he should have had to for his earned TS. Then the UFC were trying to shove Borz into a TS off of a single win over Edwards. All while giving assholes like Masvidal, and Colby unearned TS. They extorted Edwards into signing to fight Borz by stripping Edwards of his number 3 ranking.
I’m sick of it. The unbelievable rank squatting, cherry picking, and everybody talking about money fights, and/or wanting a free TS at MW, etc.
There are ZERO merit based arguments for Colby, and Masvidal getting their last TS. I MEAN FUCKING ZERO!
Give Belal his shot, ffs. I can’t guarantee who wins that fight. I’d pick Edwards by decision 100%, though. But the Edwards rematch was a mere formality according to most people in here. And I did pick Usman for the rematch. But I had Edwards in the UNNECESSARY instant rematch.
Give Belal his shot. Without the fuckery we’d have already seen Edwards, Borz, Belal, and Shavkat have their TS. The question would be who is next. after Shavkat.
Do people not realize that?
No Usman getting a free win against the fucking clown he beat 50-45 the first time. That should have been Edwards.
No completely unnecessary instant rematch for Usman. That was Belal’s.
No third TS for Colby. That would have been Shavkat.
And Borz could have been put in there instead of the Usman instant rematch as well.
Fuck this DNB division. Look how far it’s fallen since GSP ruled the roost.
