I agree with them. Not necessary to strip Colby.

He shouldn't have been given a fake belt to start with, but whatever. Not accepting a short-notice fight shouldn't get him stripped.

The Whittaker situation is obviously different in that the UFC wanted to push a bigger fight promotionally (Bisping vs GSP).

The whole interim title thing is nonsense anyway. And they proved that.

"Hey we need you to fight for the title"

"Okay but can we push it back a month I just had surgery and..."

"YOU'RE STRIPPED, F-GGOT!"

What a joke.

They make solid points. The UFC seems to constantly be short sighted.

Not a fan of interim titles
If a fighter misses 12 months then strip him & he gets a title shot next
The whole interim idea is stupid

This is a dumb narrative. Some of you pansies need to actually think about what you're getting upset about as it's nothing but media-manufactured nonsense.

If the champ is defending against other contenders, then the interim belt literally has no purpose. This is really not that hard to understand.

Are you dipshits who are looking for a weekly controversy to make your pussy nice and sore seriously arguing that it is incumbent on Tyron to sit out even longer to wait for a contender to be ready when he's already missed a year? Slap yourself if you are making that argument, and if you aren't, slap yourself for worrying about a completely worthless belt then.

If an interim title doesnt get you paid then it is worthless.if they can take it away at will it is fake . this is just one more thing that makes the ufc less of a sport and more of a joke.they need set rules that dictate when a belt is handed out , defended,and stripped.they cant just wing it every time

Damn dude, you need to take a step back from the keyboard and slap yourself before making posts like this.
