did he not defend the belt because he didnt want to lose it? or because floyd was always gonna be his next fight?
lol i dont think conor cares whether or not he was champ. he wanted the floyd fight. if its doable now, why defend in the meantime? its a waste of a camp and time. he made the floyd fight happen, hes not ducking any of the ufc lightweights.
It's the second time he's done this. Why do you think he refused to defend the fw belt over and over again last year? Because he might lose and never get to fight for the LW belt or, at least, never become two division champion. He was scared he couldn't do it legitimately so he decided to just not bother ever defending the fw belt no matter how much time had past. Like I said, keeping a belt by refusing to defend it is cowardly and no amount of dressing it up or excusemaking or shitty circular logic changes it no matter how much you people pretend otherwise. You want to argue it was the "right" decision of he's better of it then fine, cowardice can often be beneficial, but that does absolutely nothing to change what he did.
