No he wouldn't. He hasn't fought past the first round. People know he's missing a lot of experience. He is falling over throwing kicks in the fight because he's not comfortable in the cage yet. He's still trying to finish his fights quickly and sprinting for the finish. We need to see what happens when he can't get the finish right away and how he handles the rest of the fight. He needs a real test still, he isn't a favorite at all vs anyone in the top 15 until he is able to show more. So far he hasn't shown enough for him to be the favorite yet. Once he gets a real test and passes that with flying colors, he will be the favorite. He needs to fight a real live body first. No one he's fighting are fighting back and just laying over for him so far. His first real test will answer the questions and see where he's really at.
He does have the potential to, but right now I don't think he's at that level yet. He looks too uncomfortable right now and no one knows how he handles a real fight yet. He hasn't taken a real hit yet. No one knows how his chin is and how he reacts to a real strike landing on him. Those questions still need to be answered. How fighters react to getting hit is a very important factor in a fight.
