Being that most find the Robbie vs Hendricks rubber match not interesting and have been very vocal about it since the first rumors started making the rounds it seems that UFC wants Hendricks to be champ.
I see a lot of people wanting Rory to get a shot but say Rory did get a shot and beat Robbie a GSP return would be sabotaged as Rory and GSP have said they won't fight and the money fight for GSP's return is Hendricks whom GSP had a closely contested match with in his last fight.
It looks to me like UFC is taking a bullet with the rubber match in hopes of it paying dividends with a GSP return.
Or maybe I am going out of my way to try to rationalize an unpopular fight being made.
