And with this, I believe Robbie Lawler is now the most expensive fighter in the site's history.

Yeah, I think 39 points alone is excessive. Including Jake Shields as well, this is pretty bad here guys...

I'm not sure I am, since every trade sets a precedent, and this one is insane.

Well nobody else offered me anything close to what Lawler is so I'm fine with the trade.

39 points and shields for a Lawler that isn't as good as quite a few MWs definitely does set a large precedent.

So offer something better. You offered Cung Le for 30. I'd rather Lawler for Shield and an extra 9 points over Le.

I think the issue being presented is not necessarily the quality of Lawler, but rather ruining fighter value's by trading away like 5 months of points AND a decent fighter for a good but not GREAT fighter.
Then what are guys like Gomi worth after that? 50 points? I don't want the site to have that precedent set.

I was typing this reply then a friend called and I got sidetracked:
Like, you have Mousasi, who beat Lawler less than a season ago. Since losing his belt, Lawler is like, 4-4. I don't see the benefit of spending a league-record 39 points on a fighter when you could put half of those into the fighter who beat him and make him dominant as hell.
Like, a sitting champion on a 20 fight win streak is one thing. A guy with a 50% win record over the past 8 fights is another.
