Adesanya gets a title shot over Glover

[Conor_Is_Overrated]

Because Glover is like 41 and has no long term future in this sport? The UFC is hoping that Israel beats Jan, and Jones beats the winner of Stipe/Ngannou so that they can make a super fight at HW between Jones and Israel. If Israel wins he becomes the first 3 weight champ.

This is ridiculous.
A lifelong MW fighting a lifelong LHW for the HW title. So what? Adesanya would be HW champ (LOL), without ever fighting legit HW's?

I am huge Izzy fan but I agree that Glover deserves next shot. Hope that Izzy at least defends it against him, if he wins.

It’s the money, stupid. People pushing the “deserving” angle must have not been paying attention the last five years, this is an org that headlined CM Punk and Greg Hardy FFS.

And Jones gets a title shot at HW. What's up guys fighting for a title in a division they never spent a minute in?

I understand Jones but why does Adesanya gets a title shot over Glover who just beat Santos...

yes, Glover deserves it, but I would rather watch Izzy vs Jan, and so would most people, that's why you get that fight.

I hope he doesn't. Izzy vs Jones next.

Hope adasnoozer gets put to sleep.

Won't happen, so you can keep praying and crying simultaneously

Super fights sell more PPVs.

Gimme a fuckin break, "super fight"

Lifelong MW? Sure it's true that Adesanya has only fought at MW in the UFC, but he has fought as a HW in Kickboxing. Adesanya literally has the same height and reach as Stipe. If he put on some mass, he could easily be a HW.

 

[Straatblaffer]

It would be Glover's SECOND chance, since he fought Jon Jones for the LHW belt back in 2014. UFC 172

Yeah, you are absolutely right.

 

[RemyR]

How much ass does a contender have to kick to get a title shot? Dana just doesn’t want a 40 year old champ. Fuck him. Yet another reason why the fighters need a union, undeserving title shots are a cancer to the sport.

 

[Straatblaffer]

Only chance?

Yes. That wasn't a chance, that was manslaughter

Hope adasnoozer gets put to sleep.

I hope you get better at insults

Why is this so hard to understand

 

[Brock Sapp]

And Jones gets a title shot at HW. What's up guys fighting for a title in a division they never spent a minute in?

I understand Jones but why does Adesanya gets a title shot over Glover who just beat Santos...

Uh...because its a way more interesting match up.

 

[DOMMA]

How will Izzy ever continue his great career after the heartbreak of knowing that he didn’t gain the respect of a random guy On a Mma website lol

You seem to to misunderstand the concept of a website forum. If you did, you would acknowledge that your comment above is nonsensical.

 

[Dreyga Hates You Sherbums]

They should care about money above everything else, they are a business. You will never get enough people to side with you and stop watching fights.

Side with me? Sir you are confused. I am for Adesanya becoming Champ Squared

Just giving advice to the opposition

 

[Lemmy Caution]

How does Izzy get a crack at LHW but Jon has to wait for a shit at Stipe? I get Francis's run be he already got the breaks beaten off of him by Stipe.

Jon has been running away from HW. He can wait.
