Whose title is more fraudulent?

Gane>>Bisping

But both are/were basically paper champs who have/had no intention of fighting the number one contender or true champion.
 
You should make a similar thread about the most illegitimate GOAT-contenders who were afraid to even move up in weight to begin with.

That'd be a good one.
 
Fedor Emelianenko's Pride HW belt title was the biggest fraud. 3 defenses in 4.5 years deciding to fight circus clowns and middle weights instead of defending his belt.
Yeah yeah yeah, and blah blah blah.

Fedor's HW reign was completely dominant over multiple combat sports for a full decade. He fought the biggest and baddest dudes on the planet - anyone, anywhere, of any discipline that had the stones to step up and get some.

"B-Bu-but Fedor". Seriously FY, not typing will help to hide your ignorance.

Taking a cheap shot against Fedor - Dana and Cowardboy Pico beam at your subservience.
 
MMA fans like using this word but it really doesnt count in these situations.

Also Jones/GSP situation is way different.

GSP won the belt and then immediatley gave it up

Jones has not defended it in 17 months and we still have to wait several more months for him to defend it against a guy who has even less claim for a title shot than Jones did.
 
Jones has a paper belt.

GSP at least beat a legit champ. Say what you want about Bisping but the dude beat Rockhold who was the undisputed champion.

Also GSP gets points for pissing off Dana not once but twice. That shit was hilarious.. specially the second time. Fool me once shame on you, but fool me twice and fuck you goof you got played.
 
The first time Bisping fought an actual top contender since getting the belt, he got smoked within half a round.

Ducking everyone to fight #13 ranked Henderson, straight up robbing him in Manchester, and then not unfying against Whittaker completely delegitimized Bisping's championship and made a mockery of the sport, fairness and competition.
Calls GSP a fraud and Bisping a duck. This is some casual shit.
 
Jones beats the n2 or 3 guy who was the next best thing and who earned a title shot..

Who everyone was saying was gonna roast Jon Jones..


Bisping was damn near gifted the me belt .. and whooped gsps ass for 5 rounds straight and gets caught in his literal blind eye because at the time of his career bisping only had one eye.. his other fake. Gsp wouldn't have come back if any other me had the belt lol but hats off to gsp taken advantage of circumstances. Because he can.
I know you are trolling but just in case you aren't:
Nobody in the world was saying Cyril was going to "Roast" Jon Jones. Anyone that can be taken down and controlled by a one legged D1 Francis isn't much of a threat to Jon. Add in that Cyril doesn't have "One Shot" KO power like a Derrick Lewis or Rumble Johnson or Francis and it is clear the fight was made for Jon to win.

Bisping was "Gifted" the belt??? He got a last minute injury replacement title shot against a guy who already beat him. He was the only guy willing to take on Luke on short notice as several others turned it down. He was in Toronto filming a movie when he took the fight and he Beat the Man who Beat The Man. Not gifted it was well earned.

Also of note I find it interesting that you claim Bisping beat GSP's ass for 5 rounds straight when he got finished in the 3rd?

"Jon couldn't even take down Santos, Smith, or Reyes" was thrown around a lot. I remember plenty of people saying that Gane would be Jon's toughest test yet and would probably win by KO.
 
It wasn't Jones' fault Franny ran scared. tT wasn't GSP's fault Bisping got a fluke KO over a handsome legitimate champion.
 
Bisping didn't unify, his championship claim was as equal as Whittaker's at the time.

When somebody is holding another belt in your division, your title legitimacy gets seriously put into quesiton.
Bisping had a title defense and won his belt from the actual champion. No matter how you try and spin it Bisping's belt was far more legitimate than Jones', who didn't beat the HW champion and hasn't defended his belt.
