Who should fight for BW title next?

Jorgensen, Bowles and Benavidez are the three most attractive options.

Jorgensen with his dominant performance last night and his decision win against Mizugaki before that sets himself up for favorable match making here in the near future.

Benavidez just manhandled the former champion, but has a recent loss to Cruz. It doesn't seem like he will be able to make up the size difference to be able to compete with Cruz either.

Bowles just lost the title, but broke his hand early. Took him off his game.

if you vote other, explain who and why.

Bowles unless the hand issue would delay a title fight for too long a time

Like I said before Bowles, but if he not able to fight for awhile than Benavediz. Although it won't be hard to pick the winner of that fight.

I picked Jorgensen. Like wolf said Bowles is hurt will be out so he is not a good choice. Benavidez just fought Cruz and was unable to do anything for 3 rounds. So the only other challenger is Jorgensen. Both of them had quick fights hell you could make this fight happen on the PPV if you wanted.

Jorgensen in my opinion still needs one or two fights before he is ready for the title. If Benavediz is fighting for the title, make Jorgensen fight Wagnney Fabiano.

Jorgensen just beat Mizugaki, who went five tough rounds for the title. He is my pick.

Well you can have him and Wagney fight to see who gets cruz. Either way Bowles will be out too long(if he is smart) to fight for the belt.

Bowles, he was affected by the early hand break, I just have a strong feeling he eventually catches and finishes Cruz if not. Jorgensen is very good, in an ideal World Bowles hand heals quickly enough for a immediate rematch, and Jorgensen fight Benavidez for the next shot.

Immediate rematches require more controversy than this imo.

Hand break first punch

Broken hands don't get immediate rematches.

It leaves a lot of questions, plus there isn't exactly a lock nxt guy in line.

Even with his hand broken he was getting owned. When Urijah broke his hand and injured his other he was not as dominated as bowles was. Everyone may want to say Cruz would get caught sooner or later but who's to say Bowles' cardio is any better then Cruz's

c

I picked Bowles due to the fact that he broke his hand. He didn't get knocked out, he didn't get submitted, wasn't getting truly manhandled and the fight only went 2 rounds before the doctor called it.

Benevidez lost to Cruz already and it wasn't even close, albeit by decision.

Jorgenson looks like an attractive contender here but he doesn't have the experience yet to hang with Cruz.

I say Jorgenson

I say Benavidas even if Bowles isn't out for an extended period. Sure the first fight wasn't that close, but he did push Cruz to a decision. If Bowles isn't out for too long he can fight Jorgensen or Fabiano to see who gets shot at Cruz/Benavidas winner. If Bowles is out for a while have Jorgensen and Fabiano fight to see who gets that shot...

Damn that's ugly... You'd think Jorg's can get that shit fixed. It's called "tinea versicolor" and can be helped with a topical treatment routine... Did his dermatolgist get his degree from Devry? Seriously, that shit makes it hard to watch him fight...

I remember OU had a football player named JD Runnels with the same thing. Doesn't bother me.

Uhhh... I'm guessing his dermatologist has an actual medical degree and therefore can tell him that he doesn't have tinea versicolor, and actually has vitiligo.

yeah Vitiligo is what JD Runnels has. Not sure about Jorg.

How about Damacio Page? He has a somewhat recent win over Jorgensen. His only recent loss was to Bowles. If he wins against Banuelos, I'd give him the shot.

And I guess if Banuelos wins, he wouldn't be a bad choice either. He also recently beat Jorgensen and is on a decent win streak.
