If it was just one fight, fair enough, but he didn't get the win (and frankly, was lucky to even get a draw and a rematch), so he really should have stepped up in the second fight. He put on an even more tentative fight in the rematch.
It might have only been two boring fights, but that was 50 minutes of almost complete inactivity. His win against Rory before that was only mildly entertaining because of Rory engaging in the last two rounds. He's looked spectacular in past fihgts, sure, but 50 minutes is 50 minutes. A lot of guys on the roster will never even see that much time in the octagon in their careers, and he put the fans through two co-main/main event PPVs to give us that 50 minutes.
He deserves the flack. Let's hope he redeems himself.
