Will Maia ever get a title shot?

[2XDropkick]

Tyron Woodley, would rather fight Diaz, GSP, Bisping, Wonderboy, McGregor...and the list likely goes on.

Maia stated in a recent interview:

“I have some contacts and I know they offered some people to Tyron Woodley, but they didn’t offer him to me, and that for me sounds strange. I don’t know which direction this sport is going. I know ‘Wonderboy’ and a couple of other guys (were offered). It’s really weird what is happening right now. In other times, I would be fighting for the title. I’m really sad about that because, why didn’t they offer Woodley to me? I’m the next guy. The only thing they can do is the rematch, and if it’s not the rematch, it’s me. It’s sad.”

Will Maia ever get his shot?????

I gotta agree; I think the rematch needs to happen first, but Maia is next in line.

I mean, WTF is Woodley to be getting a Superfight?

Why are people taking the bisping/woodley thing seriously?

No one wants to see maia as champ. That's just laughable. If he was champion it would be like a bisping scenario. We'd know he's not the most dangerous guy.

They are ducking him more than khabib

strangulation is kinda dangerous, you should try it.

He's too one dimensional and age is catching up to him. Maia is one of the least intimidating fighters in the division. Worst case you get tapped out.

 

[Sampsonsimpson]

They really want Wonderboy to be champ.

Umm.... Besides Woodley who else should be favored over Maia.

Wonderboy would be wearing a backup in under a minute.

The run Maia is on is similar to the run Mcgregor was on before getting a shot at Aldo yet people say Mcgregor didn't deserve his title shot. People demanded Mcgregor fight the #1 or #2 contender yet Maia is somehow overdue for a title shot?

When did Maia fight Siver?

Maia gut says NO!
