I don't know if he's just asking the question, or if he's hinting at something.

No thank you. It seems like the ufc breaks all their news to okamoto now
 
Lol you can't do a shitshow like that when you got a rematch of the best LHW fight ever just waiting to be made again.
 
They gonna make a new division only because they couldn't find anyone else to headline? They're really losing it
 
Why? So if Conor moves up he can say 3 division champ?

You just know they'd cherry-pick out the easiest possible match-up for Connor to win that belt too. They'd most likely try to convince RDA to move down to 165 to fight Connor for the belt.
 
Nate is coming off a Loss

He is 2-2 in his last 4; 3-3 in his last 6, 3-4 if we go back one more.

He’s a tad (if not very) overrated.

He lives off the Diaz grit and the one McConor win. He needs to start earning his title shots again or just sign some contender fights for starters.
 
Cant just add 165, they would need to restructure all the classes accordingly.

Why the fuck would there be a 165 champ and a 170 champ?
 
I'd rather have this as the main event than see Shev vs Joanna or Cyborg vs a 135er to be honest.

The days of "earning" title shots is long gone.

DC is about to fight Brock for the HW title.

Outside of Connor, his best wins are Cowboy and Michael Johnson. He tried fighting top guys like RDA and Bendo (at the time) and got outclassed badly. This guy can't fight for a belt in a higher weight class, it makes no sense.
