Babalu Sobral Doesn't Want Title Fight With King Mo With Victory Over Robbie Lawler

Scott Coker announced that the winner of Robbie Lawler would get a title shot, most likely being Lawler as a middleweight and Sobral as a light heavyweight last week:
"That fight's going to have a lot of implications," said Coker. "I think that fight, the winner, if Babalu looks good and wins the fight, I think he will be first in line for a match-up (with) King Mo.
"I think Robbie, if he wins the fight, he'll be first in line to have a title shot at 185 against Jacare."
The only problem is Sobral trains with the current Strikeforce LHW champion King Mo Lawal. So basically, if Sobral beats Lawler it'll be all for nothing. That is, unless he plans on fighting at middleweight which he has mentioned before. Epic Fail?

I could be wrong I'm not gonna research this statement but Sobral doesn't seem like the type of guy that wouldn't fight a training partner.
But yes if you’re right Epic Fail

Babalu just got smoked in his last fight with Mousasi. I say make him fight Feijao
Inhale deep, like the words of my breath—I never sleep, cause sleep is the cousin of death
Stupid idea
Babalu beats Feijao and then you have no challengers.

Babalu is poised to be the next challenger anyway

My point is, there are no challengers now.
Mo will destroy Feijao

So, you want to eliminate any and all title challengers just because theoretically a guy will win?
Mo shouldn’t even fight anymore. Might as well just retire.

What the fuck are you talking about?
Everyone who could contend just lost, except Feijao. I suppose you could just give Feijao the shot, but a win over Antwain Britt isn’t a fucking ticket to the title in most people’s eyes. Build up a contender, btwn Henderson, Feijao, and Babalu someone will come out.
And Britt should be Mousasi’s next fight.
