| Its tough to be a GOR when one guy definitely isn't top 10 and the other is borderline. I'd say no. The only real argument is that July doesn't have shit so it would be another fight to stick on there | |

| I vote no.
Should be an entertaining fight but i don't think it's a very relevant fight. | |

Who would be the lowest guy ever on a GOR? Leben? I respectfully, but very strongly, disagree. Leben is no less relevant to MW than Buentello is to HW, Renzo is to WW, and numerous other fighters who were on recent GOR's are to their divisions. | |

| I also disagree on this fight not being relevant.
Going from Wandy to Leben sucks from a fan perspective, I fully agree with that, but let's look at this without the blinders - Wandy is 2-5 in his last 7 fights. The original fight was super relevant, but a swap from Wandy to Leben makes it fade into obscurity?
The fight dropped in stature some, absolutely but from a "what it really is" (rather than a "what our personal feelings for it are") perspective it didn't really change all that much. | |

| This poll is too late, it was already added to GOR. You need to keep up with the pace LA. |

| Because its a fight between two guys who probably aren't even top 10 in the division which isn't GOR material | |
