Please explain how Pettis has "earned" his title shot by beating Jeremy Stephens, Joe Lauzon and Donald Cerrone, yet Nate Diaz is somehow an unworthy win.
Seriously.
Easy to look back at the Lauzon and Cerrone wins now and say that but those were very relevant wins at the time. And after dismantling Bendo its hard to say he didnt deserve the shot.
Im not in the camp that thinks Thomson is unworthy, just sayin though.
LW division is in a pretty bad place right now.
Not really. There is Grant, Khabib, RDA, Gil after he smashes Diego, the winner of Diaz/Maynard. Cerrone/Dunham winner will get a big fight, Jim Miller beats Camoes and he gets a big fight, Healy/Varner winner will get a good fight.
lots of middle of the pack guys looking to break out with wins
Glesion Tibau vs Michael Johnson-UFC 168
Melvin Guillard vs Ross Pearson-UFC FN 30
Danny Castillo vs Edson Barboza-UFC on Fox 9
Jorge Masvidal vs Rustam Khabilov-UFC FN 31
Bobby Green vs James Krause-UFC FN 31
LW is in great shape
