Tom should just vacate the Interim belt.

[icemun]

The Jones and UFC hate is so real that TS wants Aspinall to give up his career

hahaha

Man TS was indignant!

Hes so furious at Jones.

He just wants Tom to QUIT he's so angry at Jones

 

[dipstickjimmy]

Sherdog is so funny at times. JBJ is not real champion, it is Francis. This would make the following true, even if no one has worded it this way....

Francis = Champ
JBJ = Interim champ
(aka, duck champion)
Tom = Interim Interim champ (aka, rightful no. 1 contender, the future of the HW division, and the cuck's dream come true)

Keep sherdogging sherdog!

Cute but in the real world that doesn't make sense. Any promotion makes up a title and awards it. The value is in how it is awarded. Francis became a free agent so he left and will seemingly never return. Does that mean the UFC must close up its HW division?

The UFC should just have a 4 or 8 man tourney when they award a Vacant title. Handing out vacant titles like a toy in a Happy Meal devalues it.

We all know Jon isn’t gonna fight him, it would absolutely tarnish Jones’ legacy as a legitimate champ, a huge spit in the UFC’s face and the bald goof would go on suicide watch claiming Jones is the GOAT.

Jones is a chicken shit, his accolades at HW are garbage. Tom’s wasting his time chasing a skinny fat HW Jones, it’s embarrassing.

That is the worse thing he can do. Have you thought this through ?? LOL

If you're claiming that Jon wont fight him that means that eventually Jon will be stripped and Tom will be promoted to undisputed champion. If he gives up the interim belt, then he would have to fight for the actual title.

 

[Captain Herb]

Just throw away his only chance at a big money fight ever

Who else is there at HW that would get Tom anything but minor league money?

Who cares? Jones is no draw that's why they cant pay him FU money, he doesn't bring it in. Besides, if all else fails, he can always crush Stipe in 1 round instead of 3.

 

[Captain Herb]

Indeed, Tom will vacate the Interim Championship for the Undisputed Championship.

homeboy is enraged man!

That would accomplish nothing and the retard mma fans would forget who he is in 5 minutes.

TS would probably be one of them even though it was his idea.

 

[mkess101]

This is the most well thought out plan since that lady that washed her hair with Gorilla Glue.

 

[Foppa21]

That does Tom no good and costs him a ton of money. As it stands, he's probably getting points as well as a champion.

And vacating costs him the extra money he gets for fighting while "champion"

 

[gracie_barra_samurai]

He should give a deadline to Jones and then move on. Going on a media run to make a big deal about Jon Jones ducking him.

He's at risk of wasting a big chunk of his career waiting for Jones like Chandler did for Conor

I agree, a company and/or sanctioning body has the right to determine the champion and number one or next contender.

My comment about Francis being the champion is not my opinion, it is something I see on here frequently.

I am not even for sure how good Francis is currently in MMA. His last fight seemed off, and if Renan had any grappling skills he would have tapped Francis (But again, Francis probably would not have gone for a takedown). MMA fighters going to Boxing seems to be a catalyst for destroying their MMA careers. I think it is hard for them to readjust, showing that there are significant differences in the hand strike and body stance / position aspects of both sports. I do think Francis will handle these across combat sports competition more like Cyborg than Conor, but that is to be determined. Cyborg and Francis are MMA bully fighters due to their strength and power. That was not true with Conor.

interim should be a mini-tourney with a quick turnaround like the crowning of the first flyweight champion. That should keep the top spot interesting and not have an interim champion have multiple defenses before a unification fight.

 

[Feaser]

That would be a very stupid idea, similar to Cejudo vacating his belts when he actually needed them as leverage.

He gets PPV points etc as the interim champ. It comes with more pay. Why would he vacate when Jones should have vacated and fought Stipe for the Big Boy BMF belt instead? We made a BMF belt for much less. Why didn't they just create one for the Jones vs Stipe fight and let the division move on.

With the belts in play, that won't happen. The UFC will make Jones decide within the next couple months and the latest they'll agree to for a fight will be NYC in fall. Aspinall will either get the Jones fight or be undisputed champ by October. Jones has a little leverage, but not that much. Conor could walk away (and seems to have) with $500m in the bank. Jones doesn't have that.

 

[burningspear]

He wants that champ cash, does the interim get ppv points ?

 

[Clark Rogers]

Is 'bigoljeet' a reference to the shit Jon took in your cheerios? If so, this thread really makes sense.

I didn't even read this post because I don't want to ruin it, but the thread title is top tier trolling and I wish I thought of it first

 

[Tweak896]

UFC will promote Tom as undisputed champ if Jones backs out. We know at least Tom is champ or they unify the belts 100%.

Annoying how much they are dragging this out but book Sean Merab 2.

 

[TankAbbott4Eva]

The point is not to work out, it’s to prove a point that the UFC and Jones are a damn joke, exposed to the fullest. Only delusional Jon fanboys think he’s the GOAT.

Correction: only those who don't disqualify Jones for his PED failures consider him the GOAT
