Should Cruz get a title shot upon return? (again)

[deev]

That answer just depends on the state of the division when he comes back. He hasn't been a factor for so long now, I don't think he deserves a no questions asked title shot anymore

he just wrecked mizugaki

 

[emax]

No, he will still need at least one more fight when he gets back before he gets the title. If he still needs to pull out due to injuries and gets no title shots, well, part of being an actual champ should include keeping yourself in fighting condition so that you can get the belt and defend it at least twice a year. If we can't, well, them's the breaks, honestly.

 

[AhuraMazda]

Do we really want a champion who is that fragile?

 

[Count Zero]

They're not going to. Risk is too big. He's not getting a title shot until he's won at least two fights in a row without getting injured.

Maybe not fair, but this is how I think they'll do it.

 

[Morning Star]

I say yes. At this point he might only have a fight or two left in him. Might as well make big match ups for him.

give him a warm up fight.. he might get injured before the title fight. give him a title fight, he might win and get injured with the title... its a lose lose
