UFC boss says Georges St-Pierre vs. Nick Diaz likely if challenger accepts

I'm okay with this fight, but Big Rig better get the winner. He is the most deserving. UFC needs to build him up more anyway for the casual fans. I say let him headline a fuel or fx show.

I'd like to see Johny face MacDonald IF he beats BJ.

hmm, never gonna get why people are bigger fans of the business side then the MMA side, never. Saying you like this fight is saying I like Zuffa making money more then the sport.

What's so neg worthy about wanting to see Hendricks vs. MacDonald ?

If Zuffa continues to make a mockery of MMA and screws over Hendricks for a fully undeserving Diaz out of their own greed, then I think a victorious Rory vs Hendricks would make sense.

IMO that is like saying after raping Hendricks let's go ahead and assault him next. Skipping him is bad enough, making him re-earn his shot would be stacking one bad move on top of another.

I wasn't saying Hendricks had to re-earn his shot I just hate to see young guys inactive.

He isn't that young. He wants to wait for his shot, let him wait for his shot. He earned that shot.

There's no guarantee Hendricks will get a shot soon, GSP wants Diaz next and the UFC want the Silva fight next year so Johny could be waiting a long time. Didn't Shad's actions teach everyone why waiting for a shot is a bad idea ?

"Listen, Johny Hendricks has got some great fights," White said. "When you talk about winning in spectacular fashion, this guy hits people so hard he skids across the octagon. But he's in no position to demand anything. Georges St-Pierre is the champ, has been forever, and if that's the fight he wants, then that's probably the fight we're going to give him if Diaz accepts it."

Everyone is not the same. Rashad also had injuries to deal with. They are different fights, different situations, I'm not going to assume anything. Carlos waited for GSP cause he finally earned his shot. Johnny shouldn't have to risk his shot if he doesn't want to.

Is Dana doing his best Harbaugh? Nick will get the title shot...Hendricks will get the shot too. We got two #1 contenders...

Carlos only had to sit out like 6-7 months from the time he fought Diaz to when he fought GSP. Hendricks could be sitting much longer than that if the Anderson fight pans out.

Luckily for him GSP will never want that fight so he'll just have to wait for Diaz

Zahabi asked GSP if he wants to fight Silva and he said yes.

at 170 maybe lol

"I was worried about (Anderson) Silva, GSP fighting Silva. I didn't know I had to worry about someone in my own weight class. I was pissed GSP wanted this, you know what I mean? Who cares what they say about you, who cares what they say about anything and fight the number one contender. I did everything I could to put myself into that kind of position, and then just to get it revoked from me because GSP wants something else. I'm actually fighting to get my title shot while he's (Diaz) on suspension, then all of a sudden GSP throws his name in front of mine. I'm actually more mad at GSP. I'm not mad at anybody else but GSP for calling somebody else out. I think he is trying to stay away from me. What other reason is there, you know what I'm saying? I tried to analyze it and he says it because he (Diaz) talked trash. Who cares? That's the point of our sport and people do talk trash and its all fun and games, who cares what someone says over the internet or what they say to your face. You fight to prove you are worthy. I feel like I have proved that I can go with GSP and I should go with GSP and here he is keeping me out of that."

That is the kind of talk that should get recognition.
