Not a fan of the "Fake" belt. But I am also tired of divisions being held up. Just hoping Dana blesses us with a Mcgregor - Ferguson sometime mid 2018. #DEFEND OR VACATE !!!
I don't get why everyone thinks they know what an interim belt is supposed to be.** What's the big deal if an interim belt is defended? I think it's a good thing. For all intents and purposes that fighter IS the divisions champion until the beltholder returns.
And if the belt holder returns and loses to the interim champ them all of those interim title fights should be retroactively changed to title defenses.
EDIT**
I reread my post after clicking submit and immediately noticed the hypocrisy. I dont get why everyone thinks they know so I'm gonna tell you all why I think I know. Good job Arrrrgh.
They can call it whatever they want but Tony is the champ, since he is the one who is fighting. Conor has a nice accessory for some of his suits, that is all;.
I don’t see the need for McGregor to hold on to the belt and keep the division hostage. If he isn’t going to fight vs Tony, he should do what GSP did and vacate the title.
Conor holding onto the belt indefinitely is an insurance policy for the UFC. They know when ever Conor feels like fighting it’ll be a big payday for them. Sport (mma) be damned. It’s sad, but is what it is.
