Middleweight division full of Fighters, LHW division full of ducks!!!

So it seems the Middleweights are real men willing to step on a whole division to get a title shot, while the LHW "fighters" are full of ducks!!!!

 

Jones turns down a fight with a middleweight on 8 days notice with no training camp

 

Machida turns down the chance of revenge with a month to get in shape and train

 

Shogun turns down his second fight again with a chance at revenge and getting the title back.

 

What a joke of a division.

it's true, I wanna know if they offered Gus the shot, I think it's different for a young, hungry up-and-comer who hasn't got the shot at Jones yet, the LHWs who Jones has beat obviously aren't confident they can beat him without a full fight camp

 

And Dana was going on about how Machida was hungry for the title and blah blah blah

Yeah it's a bit of a joke tbh, the whole reason you start fighting is to become the champion surely?? i bet the top brass at the Ufc never thought they would have a champion turn down a fight then the next two in line turn down a shot at him. Hendo has to be ahead of both these guys when he comes back.

 

Shogun, Machida and Jones are now Official duckers.

Gus wouldnt have been called as he only just began training properly this month and weight-wise is around 220-225lbs.

 

There only options were LHW's either 'in camp' or having recently fought, or MW's who wouldnt need to cut weight
