Be Max Halloway I guess that'd be a strike against Holloway if he fought someone at bantamweight, but he fought a former lightweight champion. Yuge difference.

And people were begging for the creation saying Dana was being a jerk for making her get down to 135. But there just isn't enough women for the division and with no Cyborg it is ridiculous. Are you kidding me? The featherweight division for women has so much talent in it right n- ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/RPZfKA3.png) oh | ||

Halloway fought a guy having weight cut issues who has never fought at 145 and is 1-3 in his last 4 fights. The people saw the BS for what it was. the PPV had a very low buy-rate and the house was heavily papered with the average ticket price being $100. very low for a "PPV". i got to see the event for free and a couple of weeks later so did everyone else on FOX. The fastest the UFC has ever given away a PPV for free. the free giveaways of this fight show you how important the people felt this "title fight" was. it was a joke of a PPV and should've been a Fox Fight Night Card. | ||

He has won 10 in a row since losing a close decision to Conner Mcgreggor. I doubt there is a more worthy challenger in the entire UFC. Even for you this a stupid argument. logical fallacy: argument ad hominem. the current champion is active so there is no need for a made up interim title. i can list at least 20 middle of the road MMA journalists who think the interim title handed out at UFC 206 is a joke; i pretty much subscribe the collective perspectives of all 4 guys on the MMA Beat weekly show hosted by Helwani. Halloway deserves a title shot; he does not deserve a belt because he has not defeated the current reigning champion. if you want to call us all stupid.. have fun.  it was a "title fight" where the belt could only be won by 1 of the 2 guys. talk about dumb. why didn't they stick a ladder in the middle of the ring and hang the belt 15 feet in the air too? | ||

That's not an "ad hominem". An ad hominem is when someone attacks your credibility rather than addressing your actual argument. Sure, the Holloway-Pettis fight didn't do good numbers, but that doesn't make Holloway any less of a worthy contender, especially when one lists his last 10 fights, where he beat many top contenders in the division, which JimmiC listed. Oddly enough, you fail to address the actual facts because you didn't like his tone and thought it was a personal attack because he said your argument was "stupid". | ||
