Default Razor Rob McCullough: Undeserving Of The Title?

Read Full Article

At the end of each college football season, the BCS system determines where each team is ranked. It’s designed to match the best teams together, but the system isn’t foolproof. A team like Hawaii always sneaks into the BCS games and always gets blown out. Many say that the BCS should take a harder look at strength of schedule, since Hawaii only played one ranked team all year, not including their embarrassing loss to Georgia in the Sugar Bowl. I see WEC Light Heavyweight Champion "Razor" Rob McCullough as Hawaii, as his "strength of schedule" is ridiculously lackluster and he has never been on a big stage like the UFC or PRIDE. It’s amazing that he is now a champion and I’d go as far to say that he is undeserving of the honor.

McCullough's hardest fight yet was probably Josh Thomson back in 2002 (yes, over 5 years ago), which he lost by unanimous decision. He also has losses to Harris Sarmiento and Kenneth Alexander. When he wins, the opponents are extraordinarily easy, and he usually defeats them by an easy margin of victory.

However, I do not see his next fight being the breeze that some in the past have been. He will be fighting Jamie Varner at the upcoming WEC 32 event. Varner boasts a 13-2 record, fighting mostly in Rage in the Cage. The reason I don't see McCullough cruising is simply because Varner has matched up against stronger opponents – and he’s beat them.

The article fails to acknowledge that McCullough went back and avenged his loss to Sarmiento.
