Felder isn't ranked high enough?

[FlyingDeathKick]

What was GSP ranked when he got a shot at the Middleweight belt? How about Hendo when he got his shot?

 

[KingBeef]

I was about to make this exact same thread. Holloway isn't ranked in the LW division at all, so how is Felder any different? At least he's in the weight class and ready to scrap! Hell, throw raging Al in there too!

NYSAC.

 

[DaDamn]

I think it's a NY thing.

 

[Gigaton Punch]

Given how many absolute joke boxing title fights have taken place in New York, this whole situation is beyond absurd. Paul Felder is a good fighter.

Just saying the dude hadn't fought in 4 years and had never fought at 185 so...

 

[faustian]

Different athletic commissions?

As if the limey Brits were gonna stand in the way of Ping getting to defend his strap vs an unranked senior citizen

 

[Dertysandal]

Conor was allowed to box undefeated mayweather in his first professional boxing match. Fucking bush league shit

 

[sonhow]

New York suspended Yoel Romero for celebrating on top of a cage.

Let that sink in.

3 finishes in a row meanwhile Pettis is coming off a loss... Is Pettis even ranked that much higher? What did Pettis do to get his ranking other than beating an old Jim Miller in a close fight. Felder would probably knock Miller out cold.

 

[Spacelord13]

Two different states, obviously. But Mayweather vs Convict McGregor ? Think about that one ffs.

 

[fiftywattmafia]

Felder should be allowed and that is pure bullshit reasoning. At this point I want to see Khabib fight. Goddamn. And Pettis is a pussy too. $$$$$$$$$$$ Fuck off and try to get that belt back pretty boy. Fuck your money.

 

[mmafan559]

mma in ny is cool thanks

 

[DarkneT]

We could go on all day with this shit

Commission are a joke period

 

[Joyeuse]

Guess I’m the only one not interested in seeing Felder and Khabib fight for a LW title for the hell of it

 

[Lawrence]

 

[Treeloy]

They obviously dont know anything. They would sanction Pettis but not Felder? Felder would probably KO him at this point

 

[Shadowthrone]

NY fucking with UFC for not keeping their dog on a tight enough leash.
