Does Colby get a title shot with a win tonight?​

 

[WOLVERINEKILLS]

A better question is;

Will Covington get a title shot if he loses tonight?

 

[RedDevilFan]

Colby has been running his mouth,

Colby called Belal a racist juice monkey, so let Belal take his head off, if he wins. Belal has been calling Colby out for a long time.

I hate when fighters talk their way into fights, but that is a good narrative for a fight.

Nah I think UFC would make him win one more fight no matter what happens tonight

I mean if he looks good while losing, maybe.

Star power is big.

And Buck may get a bad decision win.

Colby cheese is getting thoroughly besmirched tonight

I keep wondering though. What star power? Does he sell pay-per-views? Does he pack them stadiums? I'm genuinely asking.
He did manage to troll the president but the man's hardly a luminary.

maybe he deserves a title shot.

Maybe not.

Only if he wins by KO in 5 second.

Freak flash KOs happen sometimes and have no predictive value regarding future performance of the winner. They're a terrible reason to elevate a fighter to a title shot.

If Colby dominates for three rounds with strong stand-up, some brutal g&p, and active submission attempts before securing a fourth round finish then he still shouldn't get a title shot but it wouldn't be completely ridiculous.

Colby vs Belal equal huge buy rates.
