So you have no way to do so then.

Also Maynard was a top contender when Guida lost to him. His two fights prior to beating Guida were both title fights ... one of them being a draw. It was after the Guida fight Maynard went on his downward spiral.

I am saying exactly that. Size matters. It is more likely that you will be a contender in a lower weight class if you are a contender in a higher weight class but decide to drop down then vise versa.

If two champions fight it is more impressive seeing the lower weight champion win than it is seeing the higher weight champion win .. Is it not ?

I never said the lower weight guy moving up couldn't be successful .... they could be .. it is just less likely. I never said there are not instances of it happening or it couldn't be done. Again size matters .. if it didn't we wouldn't need weight classes.

As for my background. If you are asking me if I competed ... I wrestled for a few years.

He shouldn't of got the title shots. He was giving the  FW title shot after the Siver match not the Mendes fight. The Mendes fight was his title shot. You can maby argue the FW shot because Aldo beat everyone else but its shaky at best.

There is absolutely no way he deserved the LW shot after not defending his FW title and going 1-1 with Nate.

I don't know it. Which is why I said likely ...... Time will tell. I was just speculating his next move.

Just step back and take a look at what happened. We just watched the "FW Champion" vs the LW Champion. Both had 0 title defenses. One went 1-1 in their last two fights. There was no reason for this fight to happen. Tell me how this shot was deserved. It was nothing more than a money grab and UFC giving Conor what he wanted.
