St.Croix Mon, 29 Dec 2008 18:10:17 +0000 http://www.mmahq.com/?p=2417#comment-18165 i like the idea of WAMMA recognizing a champ who probably deserves to hold the title, but the major issue is the UFC holding contracts to a lot of top ten fighters and they are not going to allow WAMMA to make matches for them nor will they allow one of there top dogs to fight some who is not under contract with them. remember when the invincible Chuck Liddell fought in the PRIDE middleweightGP? Dana would be forced to admit that someone whos not part of the UFC is better then his top guy in that weight class, and no way that'll ever happen. man i would love to see the lines between promotions become blurred and have the promoter just suck it up and allow anyone to fight anyone, they can still make a bunch of money AND make the fans VERY happy. i like the idea of WAMMA recognizing a champ who probably deserves to hold the title, but the major issue is the UFC holding contracts to a lot of top ten fighters and they are not going to allow WAMMA to make matches for them nor will they allow one of there top dogs to fight some who is not under contract with them. remember when the invincible Chuck Liddell fought in the PRIDE middleweightGP?
