Not a great winning percentage but a fan favorite nonetheless. What do you guys think let him keep banging?
Jeremy Stephens 15-18 UFC record

Absolutely, a lot of guys would probably have a 0-33 record against the guys Jeremy fights.

That means Jeremy is fighting above his talent level. He should be fighting lower ranked dudes, if he can't beat the top dudes.

Pretty tough strength of schedule relative to his skill/talent.
He's a guy to keep around until he falls off the table physically.
Guys like him are solid card fillers.

He beats some of them. He's a gatekeeper, but he does hold wins over Josh Emmett, Gilbert Melendez, Doo Ho Choi, RDA and some other decent fighters.

I think he's way more consistent than Johnson, I don't think you'd get Jeremy losing to Reza Madadi, Thiago Moises or Stevie Ray.
EDIT - I also don't think you'd get him beating Tony Ferguson or Dustin Poirier either, I guess we'll find out about Edson Barboza.

Well, he is but I can't think of too many people I could fairly compare him to.
Michael Johnson holds wins over Tony Ferguson, Dustin Poirier and Edson Barboza which are all solid wins

They're all excellent wins which I don't think Jeremy would get if I'm being honest. Jeremy usually beats the people I expect him to beat and loses to the people I expect him to lose to. Johnson is just fucking weird, he can lose to Stevie Ray, but he can also have Justin Gaethje on wobbly legs. Weird dude.

We need guys like him. The org would flounder without guys like him.
Fans don’t appreciate the middle tier UFC fighters nearly enough.
And then when you go to local MMA smaller shows and see how easily a UFC fighter that went 1-2 and got cut dominates the local champs, it puts a lot of these things into perspective.

Got to love when the most consistent thing about a fighter, is their inconsistency.

Dude'd gotten into UFC in 2007 and never left.
Not much else to say, fighting at high level for almost 13 years now, keeping up the solid shape.

Hes exciting
Id take 20 of him over 20 Jon Fitches or boring point fighters
Fighters like Matt Brown, Niko Price, Mike Perry, Gian Villante
Even with losing records, they are exciting and good for the Fight Night cards or PPV prelims
