I would have been fine with that. But I am also fine with how they are doing it. Why? Because the end result will still be the same.
Just do this. Pretend that Jones was suspended sooner, and Bader/Davis was part of your tournament. Pretend that this fight tonight was the other half. Pretend that he didn't win the title. Now, if Bader gets the shot at Cormier, the winner will be the new champ. Same end result. It works out.
For those who don't think it is legit, just wait for him to defend it. If he defends it, it's legit. If he loses it, well then the loudmouth you don't like won't be the champ anymore. Instead, it will be a different paper champ. But maybe it will be somebody you like. Problem solved.
Well if it's someone who didn't get their title shot after losing their previous fight it will be a huge step up.
I swear MMA is the only sport you get a chance to win the ultimate prize after losing directly before.
Maybe it happens sometimes in boxing too but that sport is corrupt.
Lord save MMA. No more paper champs.
