Do Woodley & Johnson have the most to lose by losing the title fight belt?

[mmacasualviewer]

I think all the other champions could handle a loss & rebound. I think their standing would decline greatly compared to if necktats or Holloway or Conor or Bisping or Cormier or Stipe had 1 extra loss.

But with Woodley or Johnson they lose a lot of standing in the mma world.

I think Johnson has the most to lose. He's on the brink of making history so there's that. Woodley can't lose to much ranking with a lose to Maia since Maia has been dominating people (except Masvidal). Bisping would also have a lot to lose since I can't see how he would get another title shot. Everyone else would still be one or two more wins away from another title shot.

Not sure what you mean but both Woodley and Johnson knows how to rebound from losses.

You should be more worried about Jones if he loses.

I actually agree. Woodley probably wouldn't get another shot at the belt if he lost considering he's not the biggest draw and Mighty Mouse would be irrelevant if he weren't a champion. Nobody would watch a non title fight MM fight.

Bisping likely drops out of the top 5 and would be one more loss from being out of title contention for the rest of his career given his age.

Considering what happened recently, Dana would fire MM in the next second he loses the belt, even if it was a fluke loss

Woodley can take a loss, we don't know how Mighty Mouse will react to a loss (after all these title-defenses) but he seems like a dude that can get over it, aswell.

I think the only thing Johnson has to lose is the record, his standing is already set as the best in his weight for a long time. Woodley on the other hand not so much. If he loses Saturday he is just another person who held the belt for a short time.
