“There’s no way to be joyful with the way we are being screwed over,” Souza told MMAjunkie. “When I fought (Yushin) Okami, it was like, ‘If you get past Okami, it’s the belt.’ I knocked him out. Okami had never received such a beating in his life, so I knocked him out.
“Then Lyoto (Machida) fights Mousasi, puts on that bland, five-round fight and gets the title shot. I fight Mousasi, submit him, beat him up, and then what? I don’t fight for the belt. Same with Vitor Belfort.
“The guy is a phenomenon, fought for the belt millions of times. ‘If you get past him, you get the fight.’ I beat him up – beat him up a lot, by the way. And I don’t get the shot. OK, then – what am I going to do? Be happy? I can’t.”
"Bisping is a liar. He picked Dan Henderson. He doesn’t want to share the octagon with me because I’ll beat him and he knows it. I spoke the truth."
These are all valid points by Jacare. The fact is, there is no logic or fairness in the UFC's matchmaking and titleshots anymore. If you're Conor McGregor, you get to do whatever you want. Wanna fight Diaz twice after beating Aldo ? Sure ! You then want a free title shot for the LW belt against Eddie ? Why not ?

It's amazing how much the UFC is willing to fuck over their own fighters. The "it's a business" line is played out. The fact is, the UFC is losing credibility and fast. Dan Henderson has no business with a title shot, and neither does Conor. Good men, great fighters, are getting hosed just to appease a bunch of limp wristed groupie-like fans who salivate at everything Conor says and does.
