Next WW title shot?

[MMAd Man]

Not a clear picture at WW right now.

Lawler, Masvidal and Wonderboy probably all need a marquee big win. They could match up with each other somehow. Throw Santiago Ponzinibbio after his Gunnar Nelson win.

Could do Lawler vs Masvidal & Santiago vs Wonderboy..? Whoever looks most impressive gets the next shot.

I think if Magny comes out and decisively beats RDA then he has a good case. Though he does have that fairly recent loss to Larkin.

Wish we had MacDonald and Lima to throw in the mix too!

Lawler vs Masvidal
Santiago vs Wonderboy

After GSP beats Bisping. There's a good chance he drops back down to regain that belt. But, there will likely be a WW title bout before one that would involve GSP.

May as well give Lawler a re-match.

Want to see a new fight. Let masvidal win one and then he can fight for it

Thank you for mentioning this so I didn't have to.

Manlet Killer vs Strongest Manlet!

UFC WW is weak

Woodley vs Wonderboy III. That's what the fans want to see!

 

[jmsmma170]

demain maia deserves a rematch

 

[Harlekin]

Woodley needs reha training or even surgery, enough time to get a challenger.

Give Woodley an aggressive standup fighter to improve his brand.

 

[mmaknight]

I guess it's up the default GOAT WW.

 

[jmsmma170]

 

[TriangleMonkey]

Well hes the WW GOAT all ready so it really doesnt matter at this point. Might as well retire on top

Self proclaimed that is

I think its hard to put WB ahead of Robbie since he just had 2 shots. But Lawler still probably needs one more win.
Masvidal probably at least one more win aswell...maybe more

You could do WB - Masvidal...but if WB wins you knock Gamebred down the ladder
Lawler - Masvidal....winner could be legit next contender
Lawler - Diaz rematch?....could give Robbie next contender....but not so much Nick

Best option I think....

Lawler - Masvidal - for title shot
WB - Cowboy or RDA / Magney winner
Ponz - Gastelum (if drops back down)

And try to get Condit and Diaz back for a rematch

Woodley has torn his shoulder so will probably be out for the remainder of the year. By the time he comes back, anyone could be top contender.

Right now, it'd be Robbie Lawler or Santiago Ponzinibbio. But they should fight again while Woodley is out, so them, or someone else like Masvidal, Wonderboy, Usman, Covington, RDA, Magny could emerge. Or maybe the timing will work out for a certain Irishman to become the champ champ champ........
