Agree with most people's take here. To his credit, although his TDD isn't great, he's a decent grappler. I think he got the nickname "Leech" because he had good back-takes and control. That hasn't been shown much in the UFC, but he's not extremely easy to control on the ground. He also has good conditioning and an unorthodox standup that he uses well offensively. I consider him on the same tier as Neil Magny; a good but not great fighter who can give more skilled fighters a lot of problems on the right night.
