Interim Interim champ?

[greenhawk]

So we know that Conor will never fight nor be stripped of the belt. What if the Interim champ Tony gets injured? Will we have the first Interim Interim champ in Khabib?

 

[Übermacht]

Nah uncle Dana would just strip Tony

 

[Clear Winner]

Interesting. It'd be like an Interim within an intierim.

Interimception?

 

[Fatal Catro]

This is so fucking depressing and true.

 

[cyrusthevyrus]

Will they make a second interim belt? Khabib vs Iaquinta, then winner vs Tony for the REAL interim belt !!!!

 

[HomeRun916]

Stop, please. Just don’t go there.

 

[MMA since 1993]

Then the fight is off

 

[Fatal Catro]

Like someone else posted they would probably just strip Tony.

 

[Frank McEdgar]

Imagine Khabib gets a belt. You think he has been inactive so far? Just wait until he has a title.

That would be so preposterous, yet very possible in this WME era, that I would just laugh it off at that point.

 

[WAR RANDLEMAN!]

every time I see tony I hope it's james toney and I'm always disappointed. I care more about that mush mouthed stumble bum than I do anything tony fergeson related

 

[007]

More concerned about Khabib making weight

 

[ALAN PARTRIDGE]

And new Interim Interim Lightweight champion...

 

[HUGHPHUG]

Hasn't there been two interim champs in the same division before? Or was there almost or something?

Not long ago, I might be way off here

 

[Zefram Cochrane]

Interim-interim and winner of that fight vs Tony gets promoted to 2 stripes interim belt

 

[LockardTheGOAT]

Khabib would just get another opponent (provided he's cool with fighting someone on short notice) and there wouldn't be any belt on the line at all.

I think you're thinking of Royal Rumble 1994, when Bret Hart & Lex Luger were co-winners

lol, i just came with the same idea. we should have merged the threads

 

[cyrusthevyrus]

Actually, the answer would be a 8-men tournament for the .... interim title
