Will fight again in 20 days, fan friendly style, has a cool personality, finishes fights and apparently is going to be a pretty active champ, flw is saved.
So its pretty clear figueiredo is going to become a star

DJ was never a big star PPV wise. That's why they let him go. Skill wise seeing them fight would be awesome. The UFC should really bring him back now that there's real competition.

who died and named you kind of thes?
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.

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.

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
