Default Problems in the UFC 170 pound division

GSP is almost untouchable at 170 and here is why IMO:

Top contenders will not fight for the number one contender. The AKA boys (Kos, Swick, Fitch) will not fight each other,
The UFC will not put Alves in the cage with one of these three.
Rumble lost to Kos and should move up to MW,
Condit, Saunduers, Daley, all need a quality win to get in the line.

The UFC needs a number one contender match Alves, Fitch, Kos(all three have been destroyed by GSP) are the three I would choose from without this happening you are left with Hardy vs GSP.

What do you think should happen?

Koscheck got destroyed? We must have very different definitions of destruction.

I think fighters need to be offered a bout agreement, and if they refuse it, they don't get to fight again, but aren't released from their contract...or if they are released, it's with an 18 month no-compete clause, taking them out of the action for long enough were it hurts them financially.

I'm against the exclusive stranglehold Zuffa holds with it's contracts, but I think fighters--and more particularly, their management--refusing to fight particular people is pretty stupid.

[/I] I dont think thats a good Idea at all. + gsp already beat all the AKA boys except for swick. but swick got beat by hardy for the shot. kos or Fitch will be next most likely, for GSP granted hardy dosent beat GSP in sarra style.
