Dariush is in good spirits following loss

Well he can concentrate on making money and beating uo n cimers because he's never sniffing a title shot again.
 
They do this all the time. Gustafsson, Aldo, Yoel in recent years. None of those guys are “needle movers” - Frankie Edgar got title shot off 2 losses
Aldo and Frankie were former champs. Gustafson's first fight with Jones is in the UFC HOF. And Yoel was viewed as a super dangerous guy that nobody wanted to fight, yet Izzy asked for him.

I could see Dariush getting a TS if nobody else is available AND Islam asks for him.

People forget how fast things can change in MMA. It's always what have you done for me lately. If Dariush comes back and gets 1 or 2 impressive wins, then he'll be right back in the title picture. It's not super likely at this stage of his career... but he's still a dangerous fighter than can beat most of the top guys on any given night. Oliveira was just a super tough matchup for him though as they have similar skillsets (elite cream of the crop BJJ, solid wrestling, dangerous striking, finisher mentality) but Charles is just so much faster and crisper with his technique.

Gus was a needle mover in Sweden
Jose was a needle mover in Brazil
Yoel is the sexiest man alive
