Dude beat Hiroyuki Takaya (though the belt wasn't on the line) in DREAM's NYE show, is on a 6 fight win streak, boasts a 20-3-1 record and is entering free agency ...

I think he'd be a great addition to the UFC's featherweight division ... Him along with the Conor McGregor signing would suggest a sweet future for this already "thickening" division.

What say you guys?

UFC is going to Russia so might as well pick him up for that show and see how he does

Haha!! When I posted this I didn't know you were on Tapology ... even more respect to you now :)

So far I'm 3-0 picking your fights on this site, so you know I'm a believer.

Don't know about the Irish kid, though ... I've been on his hype-train for a while ... I hope you both get to fight each other one day in the octagon :)

Cool to see a pro mingling on here with us fanboys.  Georgi's record is stellar.  With wins over guys like Din Thomas, Takaya, and Miller, I can't imagine the UFC needing him to do much more for his chance.

Welcome to the forums man, I think the UFC is where you belong. Curtwag brought up a good point for the UFC Russia card.

Apparently there are some politics involved with Georgi not fighting in the UFC right now, but if he wants to explain that, it's up to him. Welcome to the Forums!

@Skelliher Yeah I always assumed something was happening behind the scenes after not getting picked up by the UFC when he beat Takaya. I hope it's not Bellator with some dumb ass contract clause. I assume Montague was in a similar situation.

For sure guys thanks for all the support. I will go on forum more often just been training hard getting ready for a fight soon will announce it soon just waiting on Org to announce. Politics yeah that's for sure I've fought whoever they told me to fight and I beat them all even with my last fight with Din where I was so sick that my corner was thinking about canceling the fight but I still went out there and fought my ass off because all I was thinking I beat Din I'm in UFC YES it was not one of my best performances but I came out with a W. All they told me is 145lb division is packed. No contract issues with Bellator at all. At this point I don't give a **** where I fight I just want to fight the best fighters out there and get paid!!! even if it's the Irish Bum kid I'm down even if it's at 155lb.

They say the division is too packed for Georgi while guys like Cody McKenzie and Andy Ogle are in the division?  There's something wrong with that picture. 

Just keep doing your thing Georgi!  They can't deny you forever.

Should definitely be in the UFC, has already beaten guys that are better than a lot of the current UFC FW's. Anyways been a fan for a long time and hope Dana and co come to their senses and pick up one of the top exciting guys in the division

Apart from Kawajiri, Georgi is the highest ranked featherweight not signed to the UFC or Bellator. Ranked #21 in the world (fightmatrix). Get this man in the UFC.

Yeah, who else does Georgi have to beat to get in the UFC. He hasn't lost in more than two years and he's on a seven fight win streak.

Apparently you have to put in a series of underwhelming performances after doing okay in the TV TUF tournament to get a contract in the UFC sometimes. Unless you're a late injury replacement.

He better get in the UFC before Nick Newell does. Din Thomas and Takaya should be a no-brainer. Robbie Peralta beat Takaya a few years back and got scooped right up by the UFC, it needs to happen. But keep your head up dude, you'll get there for sure
