Why not? Topuria been banging people out left, right and centre.Topuria doesn't qualify for a BMF contender. Maybe in the future, but not yet
I haven’t seen anything where Max draws any kind of line about under what circumstances he’d take the fight, and people are deluding themselves if they really think Max of all people, the guy who was down to fight Khabib on no notice as the 145 champ, has any reservations.I mean, did Max ever say he wouldn't? The way it sounded, seemed like Max was under the impression Volk was first (which Ilia turned down), and the only comment Max had made was how un-BMF demanding the BMF belt was, which is 100% true.
Bringing up Ortega's name is a joke, and putting his name anywhere near the word "sense" vaults right over a joke and straight into obvious bullshit
Usman knocked out the BMF champ and got nothing for itIf you fight the BMF champ, and beat him, wouldn't that make you the BMF?
Yeah UFC call the shots, and they NEED enough title shots to fill each PPV so they're not gonna have one fight "waste" one title shot by having the 145lb belt AND the BMF belt on the line for a single fight. Nope.I mean, the UFC is the one that decides if the BMF is on the line, not Max, I don't get how these guys work in the UFC but don't seem to know how it works.
When GSP beat the LW champ BJ Penn, did that make GSP the LW champ?If you fight the BMF champ, and beat him, wouldn't that make you the BMF?
