No.. this was literally decided when they announced the interim. The very first question Dana answered at the press conference when this was announced was "what's the point of interim if it doesn't get an immediate title shot / is fighting stipe no matter what?"
You got it the other way around. The moment there's an interim champion the UFC champion stops being "undisputed" that's why you're supposed to fight and unify the belt to become "undisputed" again.
Interim championship only means placeholder of undisputed championship when the undisputed champion is absent. It does not mean the real Championship is disputed. Once the real champ back the interim championship dissolves . Real champ has no obligation to fight interim champ. In the comment section illiteracy is in full display 😂😂
not how it works LMAO like chael said the undisputed champ is back as soon as jons next fight tom won a belt off of a contender who has never fought for the belt lmao. dont talk facts when your a casual fan
@@DangerIMGUI He could be right. Most champions are disputed by contenders but this one has a belt that says "while you're not fighting me, you're disputed as a champion because of this belt, that says I'm a champion too". Interim means a time between something being appealable, which will continue to be appealable until Jon fights Tom. It's literally like a medieval civil war within the heavyweight division. There's a dispute between two different leaders and only one can come out on top. Just because the original leader defeats another random lord, it doesn't mean that the other king is going to give up his crown because of that. It ends when one king defeats the other or abdicates his throne.
@@DangerIMGUIok but I’m confused shouldn’t Jones fight Tom instead of Stipe. I know Jon and Stipe were supposed to fight but then Jon got injured. So now that Tom is interim champ because of that situation it would make since to me at least that Jon and Tom should fight.

Definitely not how it usually works. When Couture defended the undisputed belt against Lesnar at UFC 91, Nogueira’s Interim Belt wasn’t stripped. In fact, he defended that Interim Belt at UFC 92. When Bisping defended the Undisputed Belt against GSP at UFC 217, Whitaker wasn’t stripped of his Interim Belt. Rather his Interim Belt was promoted to Undisputed when GSP vacated.
@@fadedsasquatch6947 however, there is some precedence for what he’s saying. ie Covington’s Interim Title was stripped when Woodley defended his Undisputed Title against Till. And Ferguson was stripped of his Interim Title when Khabib & Iaquinta fought for the Vacant Title. My point is, the UFC is anything but consistent with how they have handled these situations.
The second tom won that belt is the second jon stopped being champ in my book. The dude has sat on his ass doing nothing for over a year and wants to fight an old man coming off a ko loss instead of the real champ.
I'm English, so I'm a huge fan of Tom. But Jones is the GOAT (although he lost to Reyes) and out of respect for what Jones has done, Tom is NOT the champion. Not until he becomes undisputed.

None of these fights really dispute Chael's point since they were all interim champ vs undisputed champ. Not undisputed champ vs another contender instead of the interim. For examples of that where the interim champ isn't stripped you'd have to look at Big Nog being interim champ while Randy and Brock fought or Robert Whittaker being interim champ while Bisping fought GSP

Gane was interim champion when Francis was undisputed ... I think I would find other examples. Interim champion just means his next fight will be for the undisputed belt.
He has that belt because the UFC tried to legitimize the ruined Card, but we all knew the same day that Jones wasn't going to fight someone not named Stipe Miocic.
Was he who did gane beat to be interm. He was just number one contender. And just cause other got a fight doesn't mean tom moves ahead of a pre signed and agreed match.
I dont this has ever happened before, but i think that “the moment the bell rings the interim champion is stripped” rule only applies when its interim champ vs undisputed champ, and since jon isnt fighting tom he’d still be interim champ til they fought. And if jon does decide to retire, tom should automatically become undisputed champion and have the rematch with curtis blaydes as his first defense
There is no undisputed champ while there is an interim champ. It’s only undisputed if there is a single champion in the division. And when the bell rings there’s still two champs. It’s not until that fight is over is one of them stripped and the other becomes the undisputed champ.
I'm a Jon Jones fan but tbf he needs to fight Tom or stop holding an entire division just because he wants to fight Stipe, fight that no longer needs to happen.
It’s everyone who watches the UFC that is being scammed by this farce. The original champ and interim champ need to fight to unify. Until then, there is no undisputed.
The best version of Stipe could, but this is a much older Stipe coming off a brutal KO loss and a long time away from the sport so I can see why people are counting him out.
💯the disrespect is criminal, that’s why if Stipe wins I can only see him saying 🖕🏾F that rematch I’m out😆🍻 Do the dance and ride off being the 1st to win and never lose..🤔but I don’t know gotta wait to see
The bylaws of government affairs says the champion's next fight has to be against the interim champion 💀 So its either Jones gets stripped because he is refusing to fight the interim champ, or he fights the interim champ, or he vacates the belt or he retires. But no. Dana's ass is gonna make Jones and Miocic for the title when there is an interim champion who's supposed to be the champion's first opponent back from the break. Such a clown ass way of managing things
No it doesn’t. Interim champion just means number one contender. That’s it. Guess what? The number one contender doesn’t always get the title fight. Tom gets to sit on the bench

This is spot on. Is he still the Intrim no matter who wins between jones stipe. This is incredibly interesting. Id love to see Dana explain this away!!
Actually...the interim belt would cease if/after a winner, and new champion, is declared. Sooooo...after the fight *ends* ...not after the opening bell.
In my opinion, if you get injured and somebody has to step in and fight for the interim belt, if you’re going to end up being active, the next person you fight is whoever wins that belt not who you were originally gonna fight cause at that point that belt was done for nothing you shouldn’t become active and fight. Somebody who isn’t the interim champion they’re supposed to end up being unified that completely ruins the whole purpose of the interim championship
Dana and the UFC handled the entire situation wrong. There are two ways they could/should have went about it: 1) Jones should have relinquished his title. Jiri did it, Jamahal did it. He knew he was going to be out for a loooong time and he knew he was never going to fight Aspinall or Pavlovich. So why hold up the division except for his own ego? 2) make Jones agree to keep his belt but he fights the interim champion upon his return instead of Stipe. Also, giving Stipe the shot was wrong in the first place. I dont think Stipe beats Aspinall, Pavlovich. I dont even think he brats Blaydes at this point and would struggle with the fluidity of Gane, who got his ass whooped by Jones. This was some amateur-level decisionmaking by the UFC. It shows that Dana is Jones' lapdog, not the other way around
There’s been plenty of instances where there was an active undisputed champ and someone won an interim. Poirier and Gaethje before they fought khabib are the first to come to mind.
Ideally it should work like that but there’s a precedence of the opposite, when Randy Couture defended his UFC heavyweight championship against Brock Lesnar while Antonio Rodrigo Noguera was interim champion(and was going to defend it against Frank Mir)
That is how it Goes. Defend interim a few times.... interim rhe Golden tixket to the Chanpion fight. And Dana Sets aNew Interim Bracket of contenders!!!

Also, giving Stipe the shot was wrong in the first place. I dont think Stipe beats Aspinall, Pavlovich. I dont even think he brats Blaydes at this point and would struggle with the fluidity of Gane, who got his ass whooped by Jones.
This was some amateur-level decisionmaking by the UFC. It shows that Dana is Jones' lapdog, not the other way around
True
The champion should have to fight the interim champion on his return
How about a grappling match with Jon Jones vs Mighty Mouse ?
Please like this G.O.A.T vs G.O.A.T but in a grappling match in for all weight classes .
See Pro Wrestling knows that interim champ vs champ means 💰🤑💰
I actually totally agree 💯
What he says makes literally ZERO logistical sense, and UFC history completely goes against what he’s saying.
The whole reason is for the REIGNING UNDISPUTED CHAMPION to face the interim there is no other way around it
Makes sense
Fuck that. If jones refuses to fight the interim, he should be stripped.
Add to the fact that if Alex decides to move up he's getting a title shot over Tom... I bet Tom doesn't even feel like a champion
This is going to drive British fans insane, but Tom is still number one contender and next in line. 😛
But the bad guy is confused on how tapping out works 😂
"Isn't he friggin awesome"
There’s been plenty of instances where there was an active undisputed champ and someone won an interim. Poirier and Gaethje before they fought khabib are the first to come to mind.
Ideally it should work like that but there’s a precedence of the opposite, when Randy Couture defended his UFC heavyweight championship against Brock Lesnar while Antonio Rodrigo Noguera was interim champion(and was going to defend it against Frank Mir)
That is how it Goes. Defend interim a few times.... interim rhe Golden tixket to the Chanpion fight. And Dana Sets aNew Interim Bracket of contenders!!!
🔥🔥🔥
Bro start yapping 😂
Hold up. They still put IC vs C when people fight.
Like Tony and Colby when Khabib and Woodley fought
I indeed, did like that
MM and UU 🐐 & 👑
Baaaaasically that belt is paper
They’re doing aspinall so dirty rn keeping him on the shelf
