UFC is pretty decent at giving promised title shots. That is unless you do some thing to weaken your claim, like take a fight and lose before you get it. If i were playing smart, id take the chance of them holding their promise, rather than risk it any more by taking a fight I could possibly lose and giving them more leverage to pass over me for the Nate/Porier winner.
The UFC has let Conor sit out for years without defending anything. With Conor in the mix and GSP and Nate waiting on the sides, all bets are off. Tony has a far better chance at getting that title shot by being on the same card in case one of the main eventer drop out, than sitting out on his ass not doing anything.
