Your natural ability got you far, but your lack of discipline led to you getting manhandled by a guy who had lost his previous 3 fights by KO/TKO.
You won some fights against some over the hill dudes at 185, but it is time to either get your eating under control or retire. You simply can't hang with the elite 185, but you could be champion at 170.
Don't make us watch you go full out Johnny Hendricks. At least Hendricks won the title before he lost all discipline and couldn't make weight anymore.
You are a bad ass fighter, but now you know what your limitations are. You got rather embarrassingly dominated. Weidman had a 5 inch height and 6 inch reach advantage on you. Other than Romero, which you couldn't beat anyway, the rest of top 185 are clones of Weidman.
Get your act together and prove you can make 170. Or, stay at 185 and be a gatekeeper and always wonder what it would have been like to be a champion.
