no, but they should vacate if they dont want to defend - as gsp did. He gets hate because he assured everyone he would defend the mw belt and then didnt
Yea but his reasoning is legit. He legitimately wanted to move to 185, but his body couldn't handle the calories. He just isn't built to be a 185er. MOST fighters in GSPs position would have simply pulled out of the fight against Bisping. GSP actually showed up to fight the signed, fought, and then left 185.
If you don't believe me, go watch Chael Sonnen's video about trying to bulk up to 185 during high school. He said it made him sick trying to eat all the calories and ultimately failed:
He basically seconds GSPs account that trying to bulk up bigger than you're meant to be will backfire, and forcing yourself to eat a high calorie diet will just make you sick.
