The UFC doesn't, and never has had the absolute best talent in every division. That's just a blatant lie that the UFC machine wants to get the casual fans to believe.
It's funny that you keep bringing up how Cyborg has had these chances to make the fight happen, yet you refuse to acknowledge that Ronda ducked Cyborg when she was the #1 contender for Cyborgs belt. She took her ball and ran to a weaker talent pool instead of taking the fight with the champ.
I'd give this a more serious reply but you're one of the knuckleheads that just seem to bash every org that isn't the almighty UFC, so it's basically pointless to talk real MMA with you when your knowledge consists of Dana's personal diary.
Lets look at this logically............ Bigger promotion will draw the better talent there is no debating that. To relate it to pro football, if you're the best rated running back coming out of college do you want to play for the CFL or go to the NFL? Pretty easy choice. If you're bringing in millions and millions more for events its only logical that your roster is loaded with the better talent. Why else do you think when fighters fizzle out or go stagnant in the UFC they wind up fighting in Bellator or Invicta. To say Rousey left because she wanted to dust up a bunch of scrubs in UFC is a bit of a stretch. Fighters like Tate, Davis, and McMann would probably all flourish in the aforementioned promotions.
I want to see this fight just as bad as many others, but the fact of the matter is that if Cyborg wants to truly fight Rousey, the she has to make the climb to Ronda. Ronda is the champ of another weight class in the bigger promotion, that's the way it is. If you're the champ, you don't go to challengers, they come to you.
Far from a Dana nuthugger, I question a lot of his decisions, and I think he's a smug douche, but I respect his method. He's established the front running promotion in the sport, and helped develop some of the most iconic figures to come out of MMA. Face it man, you and I both wouldn't even be discussing MMA right now if it weren't for Dana White. Pride was the only promotion to ever come close to having the talent level of UFC, I believe at one point in time both of them were at the same level.
