Mike Brown: Darren Till getting title shot over Colby Covington is ‘devaluing’ UFC belts #ufc #mma #colbycovington #tyronrwoodley


Colby Covington’s coach isn’t happy with the Ultimate Fighting Championship’s (UFC) decision to give Darren Till a welterweight title shot.
Covington is the interim UFC welterweight champion, but that’ll change once Tyron Woodley and Till enter the Octagon. Woodley defends his gold against “The Gorilla” at UFC 228 inside the American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas on Sept. 8. Covington is out due to sinus surgery, but his recovery time was said to be short.
Speaking to MMAFighting.com, American Top Team coach Mike Brown expressed disappointment in the decision:
“I’m pretty bummed about it. I just feel like its devaluing the belts. You can’t just make every fight a title fight if it doesn’t go your way. It just doesn’t seem right, it doesn’t seem like it’s good for long-term value for the titles. That’s a big problem. That’s the bottom line, I think they’re devaluing the belts. Everybody sees it. He’s of course upset. But what are you gonna do? Life goes on. Whatever happens, he’s gonna be he biggest fight after this that they’re gonna want to make. What’s next, they want to do it quickly. But after that, there’s gonna be something else that will be next. I think that he’ll be the guy they’ll want to fight the winner, I’m sure. He’s the guy that I think has earned that spot. I think he’s also drawing a lot of attention. I think it’ll also have the best numbers. I’m sure we’ll see it. But it’s just a shame how they’re going about it.”
Covington captured the interim welterweight title just last month. He defeated Rafael dos Anjos via unanimous decision. Some have criticized the announcement as Covington vs. Woodley is a grudge match fans have been waiting for, but others have been more understanding as Woodley hasn’t fought since July 2017.

Team Thayer Real Estate House Flipping Traps! #flippinghouses #eugeneoregon #oregon #housing #market #realestate

If you’ve got several leads waiting to turn into potential deals, you can’t wait for one to suddenly come knocking at your door. Successful real estate house flippers have one trait in common: they place an emphasis on proper planning. Once you’ve secured a deal, you must decide what kind of rehab you will perform. Will you conduct a few simple cosmetic upgrades (like these  10 rehab projects you finish in one weekend )? Or, is the home nice enough to sell after  an easy prehab ? Are there structural damages that will require you to carry out more major renovations? Will you focus on implementing environmentally friendly renovations  – also known as “greenhabbing” – so that you  qualify for certain tax benefits ? Once you’ve determined your strategy, it is important to ask yourself these specific questions before diving into the construction action: What are the current market conditions in my area? What does my ideal buyer look like? Does my marketing cam...

Are Cheap Houses A Good Deal? Team Thayer Real Estate News Eugene Oregon

Whether you are buying a car, real estate or even just a bottle of wine, people are always looking for the best possible deal. It may go without saying, but people love bargains. It may even be safe to say that people covet the real estate bargain most of all. A property listed below $50,000 may seem too good to be true. However, that is not always the case. Upon closer inspection, the property may need more work than meets the eye. While some properties are well worth their low sticker price, others may require so much work that their  value  isn’t worth the purchase. If you are on the fence as to whether or not an inexpensive property is right for you, here are some pointers to help with the decision: 1. Location:  Location  is one of the first things you need to look at when attempting to determine value. If there is no demand, a cheap property will do you no good. You should never make an opinion about a property without researching the area. Some seemingl...
