She's defended the title twice get back at me when she's done it a few more times, and maybe then we can start comparing her to others.

agree, it's gonna be interesting at 135. Mcmann-rousey might be next, since ufc signed mcmann. mcmann has a solid standup for a world class wrestler don't know about her bjj. 135 is the deepest division of all womens mma, invicta played a hand in that showcasing that division in all of their cards. ronda will have her work cut out for her.

Some interesting news, Ariel Helwani just tweeted:

'Dana just said Aldo told him he is refusing to fight Pettis because he doesn't think he deserves it.'

'Dana said Aldo will fight Pettis or he's not going to like the way this turns out. He's absolutely refusing right now.'

I normally would be opposed to this refusing to fight shyt but Aldo does have a point. This is the second guy to drop to his weight class and automatically get granted a title shot. I understand its business but its fukking disrespectful to already established guys like Lamas and Swanson who have winning streaks with finishes and they continue to get passed over for whats profitable to Dana.

so Rogan thinks Aldo, Anderson & GSP are top 3 P4P. I think Bones deserves to be in consideration as well. His reign hasn't been AS long but it's been damn impressive.

I would put Bones 3rd on the list n move GSP to 4th, but really thats jus picking at bones.

I think the thing every1 gotta remember is the whole point of p4p, take a guys size or reach advantage out of the equation, wld he still be the best. i dont see gsp laying on top of dudes at welterweight if he wasnt comin to the fight 20 lbs bigger than most of em. Aldo beat faber, and edgar and florian who have been champs or faced champs at other weight classes. Anderson has destroyed sum light heavies, n former heavies n his own weight class.

if pettis has a strong showing against aldo, he's gotta b put in the top 6 for p4p as well then.

I wonder if the UFC will actually cut a TUF OG in Koscheck.

-P-

why wld Kos get cut, dude should get a new fight deal. he lost a very close split to Hendricks who's knocked out every1 else. but he cldnt finish kos, dats impressive.

The lawler fight was obvious a premature stoppage. He clearly wasnt out, arms were still up, not limp there was no need for that stoppage. if ur gonna argue that lawler wldve knocked him out or put em to sleep in the next few punches u would be guessing, every1 should remember the barry/kongo fight, its never over, till its over.

For a bytch fight, Ronda n lesbo put on a good quick show.

Two things:

I doubt Aldo is :whoa: because its disrespectful to Lamas and Swanson

Why do yall keep forgetting that Zuffa is a fight promotion, they are in this to make fights that generate $$$

I understand that (as I mentioned in my OP) But now its getting ridiculous and real bush league with how they determine title fights

But it's almost always subjective. It is likely not going to be a clear cut answer.
Actually the answer is what makes the most $ and how well can Zuffa sell fans on it being valid?

That kind of shyt is why I can't fukk with Nick Diaz. He's talked all this shyt about wanting to fight Georges, but then he can't do simple shyt like show up to Primetime film shoots.

Just move Hendricks into the title fight already. Dana is really starting to annoy me with all his bullshyt and they really need to quit handing out title shots to whoever requests them. What the fukk happened to earning it? Bones had to earn it, Bendo too but now if you kiss ass, bytch and moan you get handed anything.
