Conor Vs. Brimmage, Holloway, Brandao, Porier, and Siver for a title shot is one of the biggest gifts the UFC has ever given to anybody.

Just keeping it real, the UFC has done enough for the guy. Even if it had been Brimmage, Siver, Porier, Llamas, Edgar, I wouldn't feel different. Every fighter that signs up has to do this, just like we all have to go to work and do things we don't like.

This might be the first time im not on the fighters side with an issue that is up against the super power that is the UFC. He must have really believed he was never going to lose a fight, not faulting him for that, that's how champions need to think. But he must really be mentally shattered if he can't go do what seemed effortless until he got his a** beat.

I could care less about how fighters act, I think most of it just business. But all of this has irked me a bit. Just do your job brah.

Nope, that's an impressive streak for the lil weights

Chad Mendes path to #1 ranked FW fighter and his 2nd title shot: McKenzie(bum), Meza(cut), Elkins, Guida, Lentz(horrible tear inducing fighter)

 

[DetachedOrchid]

You're tripping..thats a good run. Just look at what dp has done since losing.

 

[TallBrah]

SIGH

 

[Unfinished Sentenc]

Holloway and Dp are beasts

 

[beephin]

And he beat super short notice camp Mendes (who's still top 5) in the division even on short notice) and knocked out Aldo and won gold...

Sooo whatcha trying to say about Conor's streak at 145?

Let's not forget...

Probably one of the most impressive title runs in UFC history.

And the fastest finish in UFC title fight history against the P4P best fighter in the world when he got there.

And before even defending the title, he holds wins over three of the top five.

Let's not forget...

Gifted a title shot, then destroyed the champion.

Where does that leave us?

 

[The Natural Born Runner]

Someone on here told me a month ago that:

"Conor has had the toughest run to a Featherweight title shot ever"

Cracked me up, and still does to this day.

 

[The Natural Born Runner]

Gifted a title shot, then destroyed the champion.

Where does that leave us?

With no defenses in going on 8/9 months, even though he's fought once (and was going to fight twice).

That's where it leaves us.

Its a little strange that he faced Siver after Porier but thats a run worthy of a title shot. its not the hardest road to a title ever but damn worthy either way

 

[Sonny Qc]

Holloway is since on a 8 fight win streak.

He Ko Mendes.
And Aldo in 13 sec

(btw I hate Conor)

 

[phipps66]

I'd like to see him fight Poirier at 155. I think it would be a different fight entirely.

Conor Vs. Brimmage, Holloway, Brandao, Porier, and Siver for a title shot is one of the biggest gifts the UFC has ever given to anybody.

KOREAN ZOMBIE: Title shot off Leonard Garcia, Mark Hominick, then Dustin Poirer.

But yeah lets complain about the guy who actually won the title.

 

[ilfirin]

Thank you. Glad I'm not the only one. Also, David Mitchell rules.

Well, what I clearly said, is that even if his first streak (which in my opinion was a bit light) actually was harder, I still wouldn't feel different. The point of this is that he needs to do what every other fighter ever has done, promote the fight.

I just thought I would throw in that a title shot off of Siver is total garbage, and anybody with a brain knows that fight was a gift from the UFC. I'm also not one to scream fluke, but 2 week mendes, and a 13 second KO of a p4p great with no rematch? That's a bit weird.

yeah it might take him 2 rounds to knock him out
