I guess he can just go back down to 170 wth an L but losing to Bisping not exactly great for GOAT marketability.
Wow, that looks like some good value betting on Bisping. GSP is 35, coming off a 3 year layoff and fighting a guy 20 lbs bigger than him. Yeah, GSP is GSP and I know Bisping is 37 but I'm putting some money on Bisping at those odds.

Kinda wishing we had gotten GSP vs. CM Punk for the lulz and then give him Bisping. If you're going full circus mode might as well take advantage of a freebie for GSP that would sell PPVs and "hype" him back up.

Khabib did pretty well IMO, he made it all the way to the day before the fight before he pulled out.

Seriously though, **** Khabib.

Remember the fight where Lyle Alzado fought Ali. That'll be more exciting than watching Floyd destroy McGregor.

I am a huge GSP fan too and think he is easily the GOAT but it is still absurd for him to come back and jump into a MW title shot in this context.
He might not be able to get to 170 lb anymore

Alvarez would be a snoozer. If they get Nate in there I might still watch though.

He was barely making weight when the rules were more favorable, no chance now

In any case, lol Khabib. What an idiot

Wow that sucks

CM just got a lifetime excuse to never fight Khabib as well

I think Ferguson would pick Eddie apart but 1 day notice obviously creates some variance.

I feel like sometimes the short notice fighters do better, maybe because less pressure?

LolKhabib and all but this does go back to what we were talking about on page 498 of this thread.

3 weight classes between 155-185 is pretty nuts at this level.

New owners aren't diluting the prestige of a belt (lolinterims and all but making 2-3 new weight classes is a different story) by making more weight classes anytime soon.

They don't want it to be like boxing where belts don't matter.

Gotta be someone on the undercard that they can give a raise to and let him butcher if nothing else materializes
