I agree. There is really no scenario outside of linekar winning but missing weight where the winner of this fight doesn't deserve the next shot. Even Cody vs tj would be awesome. 135 has taken off from where it was 2 years ago. There are so many killers coming up and the top 10 is as nasty as there is in the UFC. Other divisions are top five loaded, but the bw division is stacked from 1-10. Just killers up and down the roster. They have come a long way from having no real options after the Barao fight to this point where there are legit contenders for days.

MMA is a game of opportunities, and he for one can attribute the largest jump in his career to "opportunity" after getting his title shot after a loss to Assunção and a meh win over Easton (who I think was barely ranked 8th at the time). Why? Assunção injured himself and TJ stepped up and proved he "deserved" the opportunity.
Now, on paper he "deserves" is, but, Cody scored an emphatic win over another guy with a huge amount of hype behind him, generated a beef with Cruz and TJ just lost to Cruz no so long ago.
You can't cry about "deserving" only when it suits you. There were more deserving than him when he got his shot.

I disagree with the talent level from two years ago vs today. And as much as I believe Cruz is one of the best champions on the roster, I don't think it's fair to assume that he would have defeated Barao. If he had continued to fight, that increases his chances of getting beat and/or being cracked.
As far as the talent, you guys like Cody and Almeida getting better just d/t their age and the number of high level fights they are having. Sterling is progressing as well and I think his loss to Carraway will help. And yeah, Meisha's husband is becoming a force as well. Put Rivera and TJ in the mix and that makes for an insane amount of high level fighters right now on the BW roster. Where 2-3 years ago, it wasn't nearly as deep. And as I was typing, I just remembered Assuncao, who's loss to Tj is nothing to be ashamed of. Coming off an injury, and that layoff, he will be back in the mix. Bw is loaded imo.
