Rumble170cHAMP Posted October 4, 2011 Report Share Posted October 4, 2011 Just don't see how Henderson on a two fight win streak against decent/good competition warrants a contender matchup. Brian Stan , for comparison is much more deserving of a shot but hasn't gotten it yet. Guillard, on a 5 fight 4 finish streak is looking much hungrier, and showing he wants it more. henderson just lost to Pettis anyway. I just don't see how Henderson is better/ranked higher than Guillard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hate_Trolls Posted October 4, 2011 Report Share Posted October 4, 2011 Bendo beat Miller who Dana said would possibly get a title shot if he won that fight. Did the Guida nutthuggers forget that?

Always thought that teammates should fight each other. Its a sport they basically fight each other every day in the gym sparring and everything. Why not make it official.

MABFanForLife Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 Guillard isn't even close to deserving a title shot' date=' Bendo defeated the number one contender in devastating fashion. You are a troll.[/quote'] This. Period. Jim Miller was set to be the next guy to fight for the title after Edgar/Maynard III was over. Bendo came in and beat his *** down. Now, Bendo is set to fight Guida, who just beat Pettis who was supposed to have the next shot at Edgar before Maynard cried fowl. So, Bendo just beat the divisions #3 guy and is now set to take on either it's #4 or #5, depending on where you rank Bendo. Compare that to Guillard who's fighting Joe Lauzon. Lauzon? Really? As much as I like the guy, he's barely a gatekeeper in the division. Bendo deserves the chance to fight Guida for the next title shot, by far.

LuseFan Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 After Edgar and Maynard finally settle (if it's a draw again and Dana sets up another rematch, I might kill one of those fighters to do the LW division a favor), there's a string of contenders. Bendo - Guida Bendo's been a force in the WEC and has performed well so far in the UFC and has shown quality ability. Guida has been on a hot streak with notably improved grappling and has become better at control and submissions. Guillard - He has looked improved though so far he hasn't really faced any of the top LWs Cerrone - He's been one of the better LWs in the WEC and has been doing well in the UFC. one or two wins and he's possibly fighting for the belt. Siver - He has been a fringe contender for a bit, and needs to string a few together to get higher in the picture. Miller - Needs a tune up fight or two then a couple top matches and he's in the spotlight again Pettis - Same as Miller Penn, Sanchez, or Florian moving back to 155 could crowd the potential contender pack even more.

LuseFan Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Guida subbed Gugerty, broke Dos Anjos' jaw, subbed Gomi, very nearly subbed Pettis....and he's not dangerous? Please...when has Edgar used his wrestling that effectively? Or Maynard for that matter? Combined Edgar and Maynard have less finishes than just Guida.
