Where does this stupid trend of champions picking opponents come from? What happened to the I fight anybody blah blah?
1. Nunes said she thinks Valentina should win some more fights, doesn't plan to give her a rematch.
2. Bisping demanded a fight with #13 Hendo.
3. Alvarez wasn't interested in Khabib or Ferguson but wants to fight McGregor-Diaz winner, even though he said both suck but it's a money fight.
4. Woodley ducks Wonderboy and tries to put together some "money fights" instead
5. Conor demanded a stupid rematch with Nate even though he's champion in a different weight class
6. Cruz talks about how he doesn't want to give TJ a rematch and looks for different fights
No matter if some of those decisions are or aren't ducking, why do they pick their fights in first place?
Yes Cruz doesn't pick an easy fight if he campaigns for Aldo or Conor but he shouldn't handpick fights he wants in first place, even though it's the most reasonable one on that list.
Bisping, Alvarez and Woodley are straight up ridiculous, Nunes also a clear case of ducking.
6/11 UFC champions want to decide who they fight on their own.
UFC should stop that nonsense and return to traditional matchmaking instead of fun fight here, super-fight there, money fights blah blah
The champ fights a high ranked guy in his division, that's it.
