My thoughts on TJ vs Henry Cejudo

1. MMAth doesn't work.

2. Even if you want to use MMAth, TJ and Dominick had a very competitive razor thin split decision fight while Dominick wrecked DJ with ease.

If I were using MMAmath I'd bring up Dodson KOing TJ. Fight analysis should be a bit more complex than that.

Dom was struggling to deal with DJ's striking and relied on his wrestling to win. That was back when DJ was working a part time job and not nearly as good as he is now.

I'd expect TJ to struggle with DJs speed same as Dom did. The big question for me is if TJ would have the same success with his wrestling. He's not as big as Cruz and DJ got a helluva lot better since then.
 
If they are going to merge the divisions, the 2 champions are going to have to fight each other anyway. Before any contenders challenge for the belt, the belts need to be unified.

I really don't understand why people are crying about this fight so much.

In order to merge the divisions, the champions have to fight. There really is no other fight to make.

Your point would (superficially) make sense if they were fighting at 135 lbs.

They are fighting at 125 lbs, so even if Cejudo wins he won't unify shit.
