Why did Till move up the welterweight rankings?

[ChinaMMABlog]

not surprised he moved up, but six spots is a bit much. would've made more sense for Wonderboy to move down for turning in a shit performance.

 

[HaulParris]

Shouldve moved up the catch weight rankings

Awesome. He’ll compete with Rumble, Hendricks, Dern, and others for P4P best catchweight.

 

[bigeastgi43]

Tyron Woodley hasn't fought in eons and is considered retired, so everyone moves up the list.

Huh??

 

[Russie]

The only place they lose is in the pocket. For minute they take a hit public opinion but that eventually passes.

 

[bigeastgi43]

If you miss weight, you shouldn't be rewarded for it. He gets the win on his record, but he should stay the same in this rankings and have to fight a couple more times to even be considered for a title fight...almost as if the fight never happened...

That's stupid

 

[Fedor>Cain]

The people voting are assuming he would've performed the same if he had made weight.

It would make no sense to leave his ranking the same, given he beat the number one guy in the division.

That's a dumb assumption because he would have made weight if he physically could have

 

[bigeastgi43]

Rankings don't matter

Tell that to Paul Felder

 

[bigeastgi43]

To be fair its his first time ever missing weight. According to reports his girlfriend was hospitalized during his weight cut and he had to go see her in the hospital. I do cut him slack on missing weight but I also agree he should stray exactly where he was in the rankings. He should fight anyone on the top 10 next or rematch Wonderboy.

I'm glad you don't work for the UFC lol

 

[cburm]

Those 2 are fighting for a damn title shot if youre over weight and your op lets you fight then you can not win even if you beat the guy theyve done this for romero when he missed weight ect. And a fight so close you dont know who won is even more a crock of shit

 

[kuka45]

next reason fighters need union

 

[Deleted member 391673]

Didn't dern get booted from rankings due to missed weight and fan pressure? Same should happen for Till.


Rule should be that you can't move up in rank if you missed weight

 

[Emjay]

Tell that to Paul Felder

He knows

 

[bigeastgi43]

He knows

Well then he's pretty stupid lol

 

[Emjay]

Well then he's pretty stupid lol

If they mattered, Iaquinta wouldn't have got the shot either

 

[bigeastgi43]

If they mattered, Iaquinta wouldn't have got the shot either

Paul didn't get the title shot because he was too low in the rankings.

Rankings matter

 

[Aforo88]

Because hes a true warrior! LOL

 

[DS66]

To be fair its his first time ever missing weight.

Well that's not true. He missed weight by 6 pounds in his fight with Jessin Ayari last year.

 

[Emjay]

Paul didn't get the title shot because he was too low in the rankings.

Rankings matter

The NYSAC are new. They don't know the deal.

 

[gunlok]

Next fight Till should come at 185, so he could also claim spot at MW division in addition to his 170 spot

Just can't admit you're wrong huh? Lol
