UFC should match the 2 divas up together

[ArtardFiesta]

Rank Squatter Justin Gaethje refuses to fight anyone else unless it is for the title. He has turned down the fight with Paddy. He is threatening retirement.

Mr Self Sabotage Arman Tsarukyan turned down Islam twice. He then pulled out last minute before his fight with islam. He has turned down fights with Beniel and Gamrot.

Solution just have them fight each other for the next title shot. if they refuse to sign strip them from the rankings and announce Paddy vs Hooker for the next title. Dan is back training, his career is almost done with his injury but he has always fought regardless and will take the fight.

it will be no lose for the UFC. Gaethje is already saying he is retiring and arman is a boring lnp fighter who we were only excited about because it was a non 145 pound fighter or can islam would be facing.

The state of this division with people ducking islam and all the rank squating you almost have to have Ilia win to spice it up again.

I was going to say out that fight as the domain vs illa and charles but I just checked and that fight is in a couple weeks. Wtf I don't keep up with shit anymore

 

[Koya]

Great idea. Gaethje will never ever take it tho.

At this point try to mute Gaethje with a Paddy fight and if it doesn't work screw it do Arman Vs Paddy

I can understand what Justin is getting at but unfortunately, when you're threatening retirement if you don't get your way you've just shown your hand that you're obviously considering retirement soon which in turn makes even less sense to put him in a championship fight.

Yeah the previous excuses were the guys below them have no "names". Paddy seems to be entering his prime and tons of visibility. It's impressive how long LW managed to keep a ranking circle with the same 5 guys for so long. It's hilarious how when they fought outside that circle how entitled they acted like they just did the biggest favor.

After Islam won the title in 2022 (ironically only got the shot because no ranked LWs would show up to fight or sign a fight with him):

-Olivera was going to get a titleshot with 1 win over Dariush, even after delaying that fight because of injury, then backed out again at 294 because of injury.
- Dustin gets headkicked KO'd by Gaethje, takes a year off and beats BSD to get a titleshot
- Arman legitimately earned a titleshot, but still lost to Gamrot 2 years prior to his last win
- Olivera gets a 3rd titleshot after going 1-1 in 2 years after beating Dariush. Still looked worse against Chandler than Paddy

It's bonkers how LWs are basically all going to retire soon being ranked in the top 5, despite most of them with mixed recent records.

Now Gaethje is demanding a titleshot when all he's done in the last 2 years is get dominated and KO'd by a FW, then take a short notice Fiziev to a decision again.

I thought you were talking about matching up Alexa Grasso and Mackenzie Dern in a divas match

Paddy is going to whoop someone's ass.

That vindictiveness 8s why they have the Ali act

Someone else suggested this earlier, and I agree with it.

Sadly Gaethje would likely duck Arman.

 

[Russie]

I had hopes of Gaethje getting the against Topuria but I get the Charles is the deserving one. I don't like how Gaethje is playing this. He should've took a fight on 317 against Paddy. If for no other reason to be ready to step in if Ilia or Charles have to pull out. If not and he fights Paddy on that card and gets the win he comes out with a payday and next up challenger for the title. He's chosen a different approach. I hope it works out for him.

 

[VAfan]

gaethje is a diva, that's a new one.

I believe that justin thinks he did the UFC a favor by taking the holloway fight and is expecting them to do something reciprocal for him. Justin would take a big, easy fight. Like a nate diaz or a conor. He just doesn't want have to defend his top spot against an up and comer AGAIN he just did that.

 

[Kung Fu Kowboy]

Arman vs Paddy should be for the #1 contendership

But that's not what he said though. He said if he doesn't get a title shot he is retiring.
