what I meant was that he is the interim champ, and now there is an interim champ for the interim champ..... so he is the ultimate paper champWell his latest belt is part of a messy situation and it kinda sucks for him that it's gone down how it has. He does kind of seem like a paper champ but Conor clearly has no intention of defending so it what it is.
I still belive Aldo is the best 145er but it doesn't look like he's going to get a chance to get his rematch and I understand Conor has nothing to gain from it really. If he beat Aldo down for 3 minutes before stopping him then that would leave all doubts that he's the better fighter and just a bad match up for Jose.
The first belt was fair to give to him for sure tho; I think Cruz became UFC champ also just by being the wec champ
