6 Champions with Zero Title Defence *****

These are strange days in the UFC my friends.

We now have 6 champions who have yet to defend their belts.
Stipe
Bisping
Woodley
Alvarez
McGregor
Nunes (credit to woodward50)



Cormier and Cruz have defended once.

Mighty Mouse has 8. Save us DJ.

 

Looks like vince was right

Can't build stars without controlling the outcomes

Ufc is doomed

 

Nunes makes 6

 

Touche. Done clean forgot.

 

Woodley just won the title tonight so he is exempted to this question and Miocic is scheduled to fight the Seem this August,Bisping is scheduled to defend his belt against Henderson?I don't know about Alvarez.

 

Proves just how GREAT guys like Jose Aldo, GSP, Anderson, DJ and Jones really are/were.

Keeping a hold of that strap is difficult as fuck.

 

You gut Thug Rose in your AV and you forgot about the women? For shame.

 

That gif

 

Not saying there isn't a chance of them defending.

The point is that a lot of belts have changed hands in a short enough period of time that we now find ourselves in the unusual position.

 

There was a time when I thought they were doing exactly that, capped off by the ridiculous Conor-Aldo fight. And who knows, maybe they were. But it's definitely not happening now.

 

Lol dude none of them.can help it if they just won the belt. ALL of them are exempted.

 

You forgot little Marco. He won the title from Dillashaw and hasn't defended it.

Stipe, BIsping, and McGregor would defend their titles very soon. Can't say the same for the others.

 

The Seem?

Who's that, Kyle Kingsbury?

 

Whos gonna beat BisKing in the middleweight division? Hes gonna retire Hendo then its either Weidman or Jacare. Neither are good enough to compete post usada imo

 

Yeah but when it was all dominant champs people hated that too

 

Joanna 3 title defenses

 

He's not completely incorrect. Certainly makes it more difficult, knowing an investment can just go stale at any given moment. But vince is also sacrificing in other areas to be able to have that freedom of controlling outcomes. Which is the realism, which obviously will limit his audience to a degree. But it's definitely worked out for him for a long time. Both business models have their merits.
