Him/Bisping would have done close to a million buys Id bet... Especially if he'd have beaten Vitor decisively. No one left in the division is a draw. I expect Anderson to start seriously negotiating super fights. He will retire soon and will want the money in the bank.

Billy Joe Rottoncrotch - Even if people here don't think Cung Le has a chance to win, can't we all agree that this would be a pretty amazing fight to watch?

Anyone thinks Anderson would make Cung look silly or destroy him in one round isn't thinking rationally imo.

Cung may be past his prime, but he still has the kickboxing skills to give Anderson a run for his money on the feet.

Great points Phone Post

Anderson Ducking Weidman Member Since: 8/6/08 Posts: 21629	Cung is not a draw. Is he a bigger name than Weidman? Yes, but any marginal advantage he has in name value is outweighed by the fact that its a matchup that makes no sense. Is cung in the top 20? It would not be a bigger ppv than an undefeated prospect who has the style to beat Anderson. You have ignored this user.

GableGrip - It's because Le is the easier fight.

His manager says big name and then says rockhold is a option and Weidman is not. Since when is rockhold a bigger name? CW has fought in bigger shows and beat more top knotch guys.

Andy is scared. So all you AS lovers need to get real and understand that he wants to pad his record and title defenses.

He won't fight CW or Lombard , he is goin to move to LH once bones is gone to avoid that mess. He wants no piece of jones either and will stay at MW fighting the easier comp till bones is gone.

Anderson is the greatest chump of all time

They should ban you for being a Moran .

Look at the list of guys Anderson has beaten, compare it to Weidman's list and see who looks like a chump. Phone Post

matthias 3 Member Since: 11/17/10 Posts: 990	I think it's crazy to doubt that Anderson is the GOAT as far as fighting, but this is an obvious attempt to avoid a fight with a legitimate threat. Why is it that NO ONE else in MMA, not even Cung, has mentioned his name as a potential next fight, except for Ed Soares? Does anyone really believe they think he has a legit claim to #1 contender?

Forssberg Member Since: 10/24/04 Posts: 4182	AS is not ducking anyone. It's a negotiating ploy that AS and Soares repeat over and over again before agreeing to a fight. They know if Dana wants a fight bad enough that he will give in. You have ignored this user.

That's because Cung doesn't care... And he's never spoken out about a fight.

I don't recall him ever calling anyone out really. Phone Post

Is massive no a synonym for "awful"

Then Jason, Rockhold with 20K less twitter followers must be a 'really' "awful" draw?

The draw has nothing to do with the decision, it's got to be close to even inbetween the two.

Hell it seems to make more sense to wait for Lombard V okami if you were wanting the biggest draw. Lombard could be promoted using his brutal KO's and the man looks the part! I think he'd draw more than either.

Got to wonder about Cung's draw (movie star and all).
Hell it's less of a joke than JBJ Vs Sonnen (by a tad lol).
Par for the course here in the MMAE

It's the fact that a fight with Rockhold has more marketability than a fight with weidman. Rockhold has also fought and beat better fighters.

Champion vs champion will sell even if the people don't know who the champion is that well.

Champion vs weidman won't sell that well because the only top guy weidman beat (besides Maia which didn't help his stock too much) wasn't seen by many people because it was on fuel. Phone Post

A fact hum, how is that proven with 20K less twitter followers and fighting in SF rather than the UFC? you're splitting hairs! It can't be a blow out in marketability inbetween the the two IMO. No way is it enough to lose the credibility of not fighting the true #2.
