New rule : No title shot unless you have at least 2 fights in a division.
This is I think A. Silva did it the right way in that he went up and fought Irvin and Griffin but never got a title shot.
With this new rule no title shots for :
Izzy at LHW potentially holding up one division
Mcgregor at Light Weight, holding up both, and never defending either title
discuss
Just cause Izzy failed isn't the reason too. Henry, Conor and Nunes succeeded.
It was a big step up and he done plenty of defenses. It was a big money fight for UFC, Izzy and Jan.
Sorry it upsets you, but even though Jan beat Izzy he didn't win every round. There are probably LHW's Izzy could beat but Jan was just too large (he also looked totally spent by the end of the fight, while Izzy looked fresh). If Izzy attempted LHW again he has to bulk up a bit.
