yeah and Tito probably should have had to clean out the LHW division before he fought Chuck again but people wanted to see the fight and everyone knew he was good enough to put up a fight so they didn't bother wasting 18 months and risking injury.

He dominated Joe Daddy and Sherk, what the fuck does he have to prove? How is he overhyped when he's the best in the division?

You should have to "proove" you can make a credible post.

BJ is proven.
