I don't see anything wrong with turning down a title fight when you're already 45 pounds over weight with only 6 weeks to prepare, and the fight is against a guy you already have a haunting loss against. Not to mention Rampage took the first fight injured. I think it was very smart of Rampage to not accept the fight so he can get ready for Thiago. If he runs through Thiago I could see him campaigning for a title shot.
