Were all of you as equally critical over Shogun for not fighting Glover or Griffin for ducking Jon Jones?

There should be a rule in place for all champions that they have to defend the title every 6 months. If they do not fight in a 6 month span then there is a fight for the interim title. If they don't fight the interim champ within 6 months then they are stripped of the title. Probably should throw in a clause for interim champs who try to wait for the champ, but too lazy.

So if you don't have a belt you can't duck people?

Weidman needs an impressive win over an A level fighter with a big name. I am not sold that he is any better than Sonnen especially against Munoz who appeared to have put on one of his worse performances.

Enters Rashad Evans...well actually if even beat Vitor I would definitely want to see how he does against Silva. Right now I'm not sold (and I still say he couldn't hold GSPs jock strap)

Danas right. The best in the world fight 3 to 4 times a year.

So? His job is to defend the title, not defend the title only against someone who has vanquished a dragon to get a title shot.

I don't agree. Munoz looked bad because Weidman made him look bad.

The old stall tactic. Shocking.
