The Condit fight \u2013 do you even consider that a victory? That\u2019s debatable in itself. He didn\u2019t beat Condit; he won by default. He hasn\u2019t really done anything else beyond that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Brown added that other fights would be more of a draw for fans, even if the title shots may not have been earned.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFunny enough, the only person I think shouldn\u2019t be in the conversation is Woodley, and I think most would agree,\u201d Brown said. \u201cOthers I think would be possible more deserving would be Stephen Thompson (or) a rematch with Carlos \u2013 I don\u2019t think anybody as a fan, nobody would complain about that. It\u2019s not that necessarily he deserves it, but because it was such a good (first) fight. But I think the same for me and Robbie too. I think anybody would pay to see us fight too.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While Brown says that the welterweight division is a bit hard to figure, there are a couple names that are hard to deny.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur division is a little bit disorganized,\u201d Brown said. \u201cYou could ask 10 different people the rankings, and you would get 10 different answers. It\u2019s a little discombobulated. There are a few guys like Maia, <a href=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/mma-news\/videos\/video-rory-macdonald-talks-failed-ufc-contract-negotiations-affecting-fight-stephen-thompson\/\">like Rory<\/a>, that are just clear.
