Michael Chandler
Why?I kind of get Chandler.
Realistically fighting Conor once is a career (earnings) defining move.
Didn't Esparza have a baby?
If so, she should definitely get a "rankings exemption."
"Many Chiasson's haven't fought this year."
I did some timeline breakdown of when Ortega and Tony were both #1, and they've only won 1 fight each since that time, but Tony is unranked cuz he fought twice as much.
Why fight at all if you can just sit out and never move,
Clearly not bothering some people.Because you get paid for fighting, not for having a rank.
What?Why?

Why she should definitely get a "rankings exemption" for having a kid? Does having a kid increase her fighting ability offsetting the fact that she left the sport voluntarily for probably a couple of years?What?
While I don’t disagree with you in theory, removing her from the rankings would be the argument not to give her such a highly ranked opponent.I’m a Cookie Monster fan and disagree.
Let her have all the time she wants. Remove her from the rankings, then give her a top 5 on her return (If she wants it).
If she wins or puts up a good fight, she will have rank again…
Why wouldn’t she get a top opponent when she comes back?
Seems like a reasonable argument to me.Why she should definitely get a "rankings exemption" for having a kid? Does having a kid increase her fighting ability offsetting the fact that she left the sport voluntarily for probably a couple of years?
Cruz is still ranked? Wow. Also, conman went like 7 years with no wins at 155 before finally dropping out of the rankings. Pure joke.
Yea, bit he did finish 3 crossword puzzles and saved a kitten from a tree.Stipe hasn’t fought since March of 2021…. He’s ranked #4.
He also hasn’t won a fight since August of 2020.
