10 Fights UFC Champs Did NOT Want

[@connormcdonald2640]

Tbf GSP was 100% correct about Hendricks. Once USADA kicked in, Johny’s physique melted overnight along with his ability to make weight or even stay competitive with ranked fighters.

[@megamanxhunter]

He wasn't the only one, Renan Barao too.

[@Danielson1818]

Isn't it fitting that GSP's only fight at 185lbs was on the same card that Hendricks fought Costa, and looked like a soggy old man? One man was on a career low-light out of the company, and one looked very good, and had a career highlight on his way out of the company? Seemed like Karma to me.

It wasn’t that DJ wanted an easier fight. DJ said on his stream that he said he would fight TJ for a million dollars. In fact, he and Cody had been in talks about fighting each other after Cody defended against TJ. At the time, Cody was still undefeated and a much bigger name.

The problem I have with the Anderson/Wideman entry is that if Anderson was so aware of the Risk vs Reward ratio being so high, why would he choose to fight the way he did? Showboating with so much on the line, ballsy but it didn’t pay off.

[@Awwscrewit]

Ego is a terrible thing.

[@FunkyFlunky2332]

Ego and probably the adrenaline of being in the cage I imagine once he stepped into the cage and the fight started he just reverted to his usual form without realizing it.

[@CYMotorsport]

There’s no problem. Here’s a quote DIRECTLY from Anderson himself that ppl often I guess forget about (mmaweekly 10/20/2012): “Obviously, this might happen, but I have 2 fights on my contract and I think one of them will be with [GSP] and I don’t really have any intention of fighting with [Weidman] because I’m not a fool. I’m already an oldie, you know?” It almost reads like parody. But it was so logical you almost don’t even react to it. Makes flawless sense.

[@geezushasrisen]

Ego unfortunately. Anderson was a God up to that point.

[@DADRB0B55]

Anderson was very arrogant already by then for a couple fights, & it kept working which made him get even MORE arrogant & MORE careless. Weidman is still legit, I think he is above Izzy on the GOAT list w better title defenses

Henry Cejudo proved that that DJ-TJ fight was a farce. DJ quite rightly asked for Tj to fight at LEAST ONE fight at Flyweight FIRST because he knew that the cut was difficult even for HIM. He basically tried to spare TJ from getting fucked up for no reason. Infact I think DJ’s team had even suggested that the fight take place at 135 instead for the Bantamweight Title and the UFC denied them. So it wasnt this grand gesture from DJ either lol.

I dont think Leon is scared, Colby really does not deserve the title shot BUT he brings in the crowd which brings in the money and that's all Dana really cares about lol

[@drumpftodd7887]

So Leon is scared of a guy who got his jaw broken by the guy he just knocked out? Yeah he's not scared. The fight makes no sense and Dana is a little B if he doesn't get his way. It's called being triggered.

[@bwestacado9643]

That's what anyone running a business and has shareholders should care about. You don't get to make decisions if you cause your business to hemorrhage money. Colby is the money right now, so they need to build around him or not get ppv sales. It's stupid how people demonize companies for doing what they're legally obligated to do. That's just weird clown shit

[@bwestacado9643]

​​@@drumpftodd7887 If he won't take the fight, then obviously he's scared. That's the only logical reason to refuse to fight someone, you believe they can beat you lmao. Dana is running a business and he has to earn money to satisfy the shareholders. You being ignorant of law and how a business works is a failing of you. Claiming someone is a "little bitch" because they have a boring champion who can't sell tickets on his own and needs a draw like Colby to be relevant is clown speak

Tito vs Chuck was the original!

[@tylerbarnett5729]

Sterling also said he wouldn’t hold a belt he got from a disqualification with pride, but what did he immediately do

Woodley was talking to Wonderboy in that Fox clip.

Tommy: "Cody G" Me: 💀

[@The_Cholo]

Its WILD GDR cracked holm multiple times after the belt and then got a belt to give up a day later. But theyre THE BEST IN THE BUSINESS. The way espn app wont load a ufc event, its hard to be a fan. Ive been watching strictly ONE FC events the past two months. Youd think the ufc would WANT their shows to be televised, but who knows

[@Snnovern]

Colby doesnt deserve the shot. Thats all

[@metalanarchy5186]

I get giving Muhummed a title shot but to try and give one to Maszvidal and not Colby makes zero sense because Colby beat Maszvidal in those two previous fights and to act like that never happened if he wins 1 fight after that

[@merlinoner]

Colby is now getting the title fight and I find it to be fair. He's an entertainer, in and outside the Octagon, makes views and that's the only thing that moves the needle. GSP was 100% right about Hendrix...And Hendrix was really full of shit... DJ is one of the best to ever do and he was right about the Snake... I wouldn't blame Bisping for being scared of Romero, everybody was scared of Romero at that time... Later Adesanya took the fight ran for 25 minutes.

[@rickybobby38]

Whittaker wasn't afraid of Romero, he fought him twice & didn't run away from him like Izzy did 😅😅 Colby talks a big game, but his fights never deliver on that same sort of level - at the top level he's just not a finisher
