Not at all, because unlike Connor, most fighters have to earn title shots, not have them gifted to them because it sells tickets and PPV's.
It's one thing to beat the champion. On any given night most people in the top 5 could probably do it at least once.
It's quite another to take out contender after contender and finally, if you're lucky, defeat the champion.
Connor earned the FW title, but no one in their right mind has the right to say he's earned a LW title shot, or even a WW title shot
