Woodley is a beast.
Have a feeling the ww division is about to go the same way. Woodley ain't going to stand the reignUFC 196 on FS1
Crazy that neither Holm or Tate have the belt so soon after.
And likely losing in a boring mannerHave a feeling the ww division is about to go the same way. Woodley ain't going to stand the reign
^Ferguson is getting screwed if that goes through. The fuk are they doing sacrificing an entertaining fighter (primed to be a #1 contender) on a 8 fight streak to engineer a rematch no one is clamoring for? Dude was due ever since he humbled barboza. Blonde afro guy and RDA had there chances
No one is clamoring for Eddie vs anybody, so who fukking cares. Get RDA back in there^Ferguson is getting screwed if that goes through. The fuk are they doing sacrificing an entertaining fighter (primed to be a #1 contender) on a 8 fight streak to engineer a rematch no one is clamoring for? Dude was due ever since he humbled barboza.

in the sense he's been in the ufc 4 years gone undefeated (to no fanfare mind you) and can't seem to stay healthy enough to fight consistently. If he became champ he would take the div hostageHow did Khabib get his chance?
It does kind of suck for Ferguson. On the bright side, the fight will be exciting.
Besides he's never said in the past "I am a true mix martial artist, I don't do this for the money I do this for the love" so it's not like he's a hyprocrite who is ducking the number 1 contender to fight diaz like someone in the pastNot liking the heat Woodley is getting for treating this like a business. Dude is 34 and is trying to get paid, people can kick rocks with this "love of the game" " jargon.
It IS a business and he now owns a major bargaining chip. .. it's barely a step above WWE in the sense that there is no clear cut architecture to a title shot.
The Phrase "needle mover" is the criteria for $$ and belts in the UFC ...period.
By making the Internet angry for "ducking wonderboy" as they put it, they're now gonna tune in to see whoever he fights in hopes he gets his head knocked off. So the very thing the Internet is angry at him for (looking at it like a business) they're gonna help him with.
Him vs Wonderboy as a fight makes "sense" sure but doesn't change his life the way a GSP or Diaz fight could and he ain't wrong for the reach IMO.
