who thinks Dana White is a hypocrite

[luvfightgame]

Yes. And why did cote get a shot? Good fighter sure, but contender, no way. Not right now.

It just goes to show you how shallow the talent pool still is in mma. Dana is desperate to find contenders. Pride was out of HW contenders too. The only guy left was Barnett.

I don't see why that makes the talent pool low in MMA. Boxing is the same Wlad is fighting Rahman?!?
Vitali comes out of retirement to fight and win champ.
Who was Pavlik gonna fight if not Bhop?

The talent pool ebbs and flows in different weight classes. Both boxing and MMA. Lighter weights have tons of good matchups. It's not sport specific.

The talent pool isn't shallow it's just that Silva has little to no competition in the MW division. Henderson who all were claiming would be the best stylistic match up for Silva went down as well. Throw who you want at him and he'll get the job done. His recent performance though was very lackluster IMO.

Demian Maia could make a great match for Anderson Silva, but the UFC probably wants to give Maia more fights/visibility before that fight. Personally, I think Maia could take him right now.

Case in point: Travis Lutter, a great submission fighter, almost beat Silva and would've done it if he hadn't been fatigued from trying to (unsuccessfully) trying to make weight.
