Who's your av, asking for a friend

 

[Toco]

the fight that everyone was waiting for

 

[Krev]

Sucks to hear Dillashaw fight fell through but glad to hear the goat is close to being back in action.

I used to think of Bones as such a punk for ducking out of the first scheduled fight with The Shael because I ate up the Dana BS. After hearing how they were wanting to short-change Jones and cut the cost since the same stakes weren't up for grabs, I understood. Same thing seems to be happening here. I completely see MM's side when he said, "If they're wanting to call this a super fight, they should pay me like it's a super fight." He's fighting the guy in the higher weight class.

bs, he his staying at flyweight, tj will have to dehydrate himself

asking for too much money is just another ways to duck

 

[Toco]

This is Dana's fault all the sources are out there, but side with the company over the fighters per as you do Sherdog.

what dana's fault, are you serious

 

[Dozer .]

what dana's fault, are you serious

DJ fans in full damage control mode

DJ never wanted the TJ fight. He knows what would happen.

 

[Failwani]

Lol hell nah.

Keep this up and men's flyweight won't exist by 1/1/2020.

You don't follow MMA or headlines ?.
Where is your source that he asked for too much money ?.

 

[A.S. Deep]

BOOOOOOOO

TJ/DJ would have been a GOAT level fight.

 

[The_Renaissance]

Nobody cares. Hey, WME, good luck selling a low-selling champion rematching a guy who has openly admitted in the recent past that he has little chances of ever beating MM, coz he's that good.

 

[Newave]

He's fighting the guy in the higher weight class.

No he’s not, TJ was going to fight at 125. Jose Aldo didn’t ask for an extra $1 million when Frankie Edgar went down to fight him for the belt.

Never in the history of mma, before this situation, have a heard of someone demanding substantial amounts of extra money to fight someone who is coming down to their weight class from one weight class above (or any weight class above).

 

[executionermma]

i'm sad right now, that was the fight i was most looking forward to.. fuck

 

[Joseph_McBride]

As if this Chicago card couldn't be more sad.

I understand not giving Chicago the NYC or LA(214) treatment, but you would think WME would at least want to give Chicago fans the same type of card a Brooklyn, Dallas, or Detroit(shthole) got.

TJ vs Cruz 2 or Garbrandt 2 would be worlds better as a co-main

Great. Another title defence. Another all time low PPV. Another win that no one will remember in 20 years.

Good call. Let's blame MM for being so damn good that he makes the rest of the division look like trash. Let's blame MM for standing up to the company and fighting for his worth. Let's blame MM for lacking promotion being one of the most creative and dominant fighters on the roster while the company fails to promote him, focusing only on a handful of fighters. Let's back Dana and crew instead of the fighters.

Good job to TJ for calling out the smaller man, wanting to step down in weight instead of bump up.

Where is your source ?.

 

[Bend NvR Break]

DJ priced himself out of the TJ fight lol

The UFC wanted TJ to fight Cody for the 135 title when Holloway pulled out to save the card.

When TJ turned down the fight (doesn't matter the reason even though I felt he had a legit one) the UFC iced the idea for a TJ vs MM super fight to spite TJ.
