Are you convinced?
Why or why not?
He's beaten everyone except for Volk and Max but to be fair, he hasn't had many top 5 fights to prove that he deserves to be the 3rd best FW.
He beat a washed Frankie, a Cub who isn't top 5, KZ win was great, but that's basically it. I'd like to see him face off against the Gigas and Kattars of the division to really see if he's truly right below Volk and Max because to me he's gotten a nice boost from the UFC to jump from that fringe top 5 stage to title shots..
He's a good offensive fighter and his offense has saved him on multiple occasions but his defense has proven to be below par almost everyone he faces is having a lot of succes against him. Hes a very opportunistic fighter who can finish fights but aside from the KZ fight ive never actually seen him beat someone high level from pillar to post, and you need these types of performances if your really a top contender imho...He's losing most fights before pulling of something late and winning. Is this sustainable? Where do you rank him at FW personally?
Thoughts?
