The Black Beast has declared himself Interim Heavyweight Champion!

“I just knew I had a bigger heart than him,” Lewis said. “He call himself a man, but he likes to put his hands on women. So, forget that guy. I got much more heart than he has. Where’s Ronda Rousey’s fine ass at?”

During the Post Fight Press Conference the Black Beast continues to insist Travis Browne beats women. LOL.

This is what we in the rasslin' biz call a heel turn. Big Heel Turn tonight by the Black Beast!

somebody put a microphone in Browne's face and let's get his response... that is if he can remember who Ronda Rousey is after having his brain rattled

Man, it literally looked like Yamasaki was standing there waiting for Travis to go completely out before stepping in.

Few fights earlier, Ricci takes 6 unnecessary shots from Felder.

Fucking disappointing refs.

the guy who started this thread is slacking man. He still has not added The Black Beast Derrick Lewis as UFC Interim Heavyweight Champion!

To get an idea of how massive The Black Beast is... look at how small that UFC Interim Heavyweight Championship belt looks on The Beast's shoulder.

and whatsherface has ended her moratorium. The Black Beast wanted to know where Ronda's sweet ass was at. Here it is at too!

How many flyweight fights occurred under WME-IMG? how many flyweight fights are booked in the future?

is the UFC gonna cut the whole division? or maybe keep Johnson and 2 or 3 top contenders?

No clue how many flyweight fights since the WME buyout, but there are currently 5 flyweight fights scheduled: Formiga/Borg (Fortaleza), Lasua/Bibulatov (210), Elliott/Smolka (Fox24), Sandoval/Schnell and Ortiz/Moreno (both at Nashville).

The division is stagnant, it doesn't have any big names, and its hard to promote when you have such dynamic division in WW, LW, and MW. The lower weight classes are a lot more popular in Asia, so we could definitely see a bunch of folks leave to make their cash over there.

fight will probably be in Las Vegas according to White and he says "Romero is next". God help GSP if he has to fight Romero. White said there is no guarantee GSP defends against Romero if he wins.

GSP vs BISBING announced. Smart for GSP to fight the weakest champ and become a 2 division champ.

Smart for Bisping to take a big money fight as the champ, he's been around long enough and i'm happy for him in that respect, on the other hand an elite wrestler like GSP will most likely take him down all fight, zzzzz.

Hoping i'm wrong, Bisping is bigger than just about anyone GSP has faced.

Can't wait for Bisping to beat GSP so we can see him defend his title against Nick Diaz, Nate Diaz, Conor McGregor and Floyd Mayweather in successive order.

GSP/Bisping is a fucking joke of a fight, jesus. GSP's first MW fight is a title shot, over someone who had already been given the fight? Over Jacare? Over a Rockhold rematch?

I could understand giving him the match for the WW belt. 12 title defenses and he retired with the belt.

Conspiracy theory: If he beats Bisping, they give him the WW titleshot. Then, as the second 2 belt holder, they set up a megafight with McGregor to break their PPV records, all while fucking over 4 divisions.

I don't understand what the big deal is.

GSP getting the fight is completely normal, good even. It's like when people were complaining that Conor wasn't fighting Khabib or Ferguson, sure they're both good... But that's why you let them fight it out. I don't get what the rush is - Bisping fought less than 5 months ago, and we have 3 other potential challengers. A champ has no obligation to be fighting opponents that quickly, so long as he takes on 1 challenger every 12-15 months, he's defending his belt.

Rockhold is injured, Romero is cheat. Have Jacare fight one of them, and have the winner of Mousasi vs Weidman fight the other. Why does the belt have to be getting contested every time?

Like who else is GSP going to fight? Winner of the WW fight? Poor Demian Maia man, he's been waiting for longer, and this is waiting for a fight that hasn't even happened yet. At least Bisping has had time to rest. Nick Diaz?... Come on, that's a much more joke fight than vs Bisping. Bisping probably makes the most sense, with a superfight against Conor McGregor as the dream one day if we he wins a couple fights.

GSP went 18-1 in the UFC following his failed welterweight championship attempt against Matt Hughes... And his two losses, he's avenged both of them.

When looking purely at his record and the opponents he's faced, it's probably the most impressive on the entire UFC roster. People like to talk about his 11 fight win streak, but don't forget the 6 before that against top end competition, with one unlucky catch between that. The rankings matter, and they're being used, it's just GSP wasn't on the rankings because he wasn't active. If GSP comes back to whatever weight division, you obviously would put him #1 WW, #1-2 lightweight, and #3-#4 welterweight. We should have some respect for legends like this.

You're just making those rankings up. The guy dodged Anderson for years. Cmon dude. Romero served his sentence and that's it. If you have a problem with that, then take it up with USADA. Jacere/Romero deserve the next title shot period.
The Bisping fight makes the least sense. GSP has never fought middleweight. Conor was at least a 2 division champion and current FW champ before he fought Alvarez.

I think GSP is one of the greatest if not the greatest of all time, but to fight at a weight class above that he constantly dodged for years makes 0 sense and its for the title rofl. Just admit it, this is a win win for GSP, Bisping and the WME.

I'd rather he stay at WW fighting anyone in the top 5 which includes people like Lawlor and Condit.
