News DJ For Askren trade is a done deal

Why do people keep saying the division is folding? The UFC finally has their Mexican (American) champ.

Isn't it obvious? The weight class is by far the lowest drawing, even worse than some of the women's fights. The UFC would never let DJ go if they thought he could bring revenue to that weight class. He flat out refused a superfight with TJ on how many ocassions?

The UFC will get rid of 125 and no one will even notice.

This is what will happen. I think Cejudo will be facing the 135 champion next, and 125 will be folded. People
are in denial. Maybe then all the UFC Flyweights can join DJ in OneFC. Goodbye Flyweight.
 
so weird.


DJ finally loses in a super close fight that could've gone either way and just leaves? won't even do his rematch?
Probably knows even if he wins it back Dana still isn't going to go out of his way to do anything for him. So may as well finish your career in a spot that dosen't hinge on him selling ppv buys to get paid, and a place where he can have bigger sponsorship money again. He already has the title defense record, so what more could he really do getting the belt back other than go up in weight to be very undersized at BW again?

Pretty sure last two Nunes ppvs card sold less than any DJ ppv.

And I think it's been established DJ wasn't bringing revenue to that weight class. Isn't it time for someone else to be champ?
 
One step forward and 5 steps back for the sport.

No more Demetrious Johnson also means no more 125 division.
Maybe but not necessarily. They did make the division when DJ was just a solid 135 fighter, not considered a GOAT

I am worried, though
 
Awful. So you lose DJ and Alvarez for




Askren





FIRE SEAN SHELBY!
