Why the Mighty Mouse trade makes sense

Underground

Demetrious is already the winningest UFC Champion of all time. 11 successful title defenses. Presumably larger paydays and fresh opportunities await him overseas. This move will help expose his twitch.tv streaming to an audience that will appreciate him more as a martial artist. 
 
25-2 Kyoji Horiguchi has grown much since he first fought DJ in 2015 and he also deserves the chance to challenge himself against the best in the world once again. A rematch between Horiguchi and Johnson is a must make fight and sold out stadium show in Tokyo.
 
 
Just like Georges St-Pierre vs. Ben Askren is a must make fight and sold out stadium show in Toronto. If GSP is going to retire, then it should be in his backyard. One final farewell to the fans and fight game.

Make no mistake about it. GSP is physically prime still. This is very recent footage
 
 
 
 
 
Afterwards UFC can do Askren vs. Khabib in Russia for Ben's lineal Welterweight title that dates back to 2013 when Georges "ran up out of there." 
 
 
 
GSP: "If Askren signs, I’ll fight him. No problem."
 
 
"“OF COURSE (I’D LIKE TO FIGHT HIM),” STATED GEORGES. “HE’S A GOOD FIGHTER, UNDEFEATED, AND YES, IF HE COMES, I’LL FIGHT HIM. NO PROBLEM.”
 
"BRING HIM IN; I’LL FIGHT EVERYONE. I AM THE CHAMPION, AND I HAVE NO CHOICE, SO IT’S NO PROBLEM. I’M NOT AFRAID.”

Askren cannot andul da riddim.

Askren vs Khabib I think is more intriguing. But start him against Justin or Kevin

This opens the door for future trades, fighter sharing and one off fights. 

Fedor in the UFC against the winner of Lesnar/Cormier is a superfight, if he can win the Bellator Heavyweight GP.</p>

5

Smart move from both sides imo, and that’s good for the fans.

6

Nobody knows Askren. He's not fighting GSP. If he came in and wrecked Woodley he might be blessed with a GSP fight. Don't see it happening right off the hop.

7

Cejido goes to fight TJ at 135 and the midgetweight division is done.

Askren is a welterweight
