How convenient ... what was he saying about alligators?
This is sense talkingThat's an outlook that won't ever be unanimously agreed upon. I like to think that majority of the best fighters or anything that can be turned into a completion would like to actually test themselves against the best. I can't see a ton of fighters dedicating so much time and effort getting hammered on in training look for the easiest path.
What other champions called for title fights with guys out of the top ten, retired or lengthy time of or from a lesser weight division when they haven't defended or cleaned out their own division yet?
Because Conor brings the money, Bisping simply doesn't. Conor brings it, others ask for it, that is the difference. That is why the UFC is looking the other way while Conor does his thing.Exactly, and he is like 37 or 38? Of course he is going to pick his fights carefully. I'd like to see him fight legit contenders though.
Thing is, this is what you get when you have Conor doing whatever the fuck he wants, why wouldn't other champs?
maybe the answer is none; but that would be because for 20 years the ufc played it like that would be imposible.What other champions called for title fights with guys out of the top ten, retired or lengthy time of or from a lesser weight division when they haven't defended or cleaned out their own division yet?

Good points, but still....maybe the answer is none; but that would be because for 20 years the ufc played it like that would be imposible.
now they've set weird precedents and at least Bisping and Woodley are trying to get "money fights" instead of fighting the #1 contender.
and I wouldn't buy the "test themselves against the best" thing. they're working just like everybody else. if they can get more money while taking less risks they'll do it.

Someone post him that GIF of the dog with the aligator.... Hell I might even do it
Could be true. But Rockhold submitted him. I appreciate the rematch was different but...and for the record I think Bisping matches up pretty well against Jacare.
the champ has fought takedowns his whole career and he's never got stuck on the ground against no one. Jacare is not a very good wrestler, he relies more on pressuring and chaining takedown attempts which I don't think would work on Bisping.
I think there's a good posibility that Bisping spends the whole fight scoring his pitter patter punches from the outside just outworking Jacare on the feet and avoiding the ground fight.
Although just checking my brain, I think that's his only ever submisson loss.... Could be wrong.and for the record I think Bisping matches up pretty well against Jacare.

but Rockhold broke Bisping with the head kicks then just slapped a sub. Bisping gets wrecked when the other guy is a better striker or has much better athleticism than him. OTOH he does pretty good when he needs to use just defensive wrestling and can outstrike the other guy.Could be true. But Rockhold submitted him. I appreciate the rematch was different but...
Yea you have a point.but Rockhold broke Bisping with the head kicks then just slapped a sub. Bisping gets wrecked when the other guy is a better striker or has much better athleticism than him. OTOH he does pretty good when he needs to use just defensive wrestling and can outstrike the other guy.
Should be moved to the dump. Clearly fighter bashing. Right?
He called out Lesnar.Now, if one has to make the comparison with Conor, let Bisping call somebody out ABOVE his weight class, yes, then such a comparison would make more sense.
Kinda lame statements. Anyhow, you see that he is doing it successfully so far.Because Conor brings the money, Bisping simply doesn't. Conor brings it, others ask for it, that is the difference. That is why the UFC is looking the other way while Conor does his thing.
To say Luke just slapped a sub on after head kicks is quite the down play. That was a great sequence start to finish, not too many one armed guillotines highlights out there at that level.but Rockhold broke Bisping with the head kicks then just slapped a sub.

Who is doing what succesfullyHe called out Lesnar.

what I meant is that Rockhold didn't win by outgrappling Bisping. it wasn't a string of grappling maneuvers or even a sustained grappling sequence. he outclassed Bisping on the feet, dropped him, then "slapped" a sub on a guy that was probably rocked. as we can see from the gif Bisping was getting punched a flash second before getting subbed.To say Luke just slapped a sub on after head kicks is quite the down play.
