By not signing with the UFC or Bellator? Will he ever be talked about as a "great" fighter without fighting anyone of note since 2012? While I'm not 100% hardcore, I do consider myself a pretty well versed fight fan, especially the big Orgs. I dont recognize ANY names of the fighters he has fought since Douglas Lima, back in 2012. Before that, the recognition is there, but since? Na....
Back to my Question....I'm not sure what his pay scale is, I know he listened to offers from the UFC and Bellator and probably others as well, and signed with One FC. So I'm sure the pay was there, but as far as Reputation/Legacy, was his career a waste? I dont know if anyone of note considers him a top 5 fighter, even though he is 17-0. Sherdog doesnt even have him in the Honorable Mentions after their top 10.....
I'd love to see how he fares against UFC level talent....170 is one of UFCs deepest divisions in my opinion.
Thoughts?
