So its pretty clear figueiredo is going to become a star

Star? What's your definition? He doesn't have the WWE style persona to become a big star. Which is sad, because as a fighter he's amazing.

Welp, for the UFC "star" is who they choose. And that usually includes someone who talks a good game and/or looks the part (Paige and Sage). I don't agree with it. But that seems to be the way it is.

sometimes its the dude that wins, trains, and doesn't play the card's the industry and people want him to play
 
Figgy is starting to make some noise and is gaining traction in North America. I think they see this, and have made a couple of recent audibles to put Figgy on a pedastool. Plus, The Pandamec Effect magnifies the UFC viewership as it appears.

But one thing is for certain. The God of War is going to continue his path in destruction and decimation...

Na bud been here a long time. Just stating reality. How the hell did those cans headline cards? They were hyped as stars by the UFC hype machine because they looked/talked the part. Yea they had some skills but not elite level. Like I said, I don't agree with the way the UFC does things. If it was a meritocracy Tony wouldn't have had to win 12 fights in a row to get a title shot, and dudes coming off losses wouldn't be getting them.

I don't agree with this, outside of maybe the wmma the looks of a fighter don't mean much ( unless you're a guy like romero or brock who lool like comic books ) 90% of the people who watch this sport are 18-34 years heterosexual males. Sage was a "star" because of his memeable behaviour, for every sage northcut this is an alan jouban
