He makes his UFC return at WW going into a fight against Koscheck where most expected Koscheck to win via his wrestling, and he stops him in the first round.
And then he beats a lower tier fighter in Voelker in impressive fashion
And then just like that he finds himself as the #10 ranked guy in the division, with an upcoming fight against Rory MacDonald, finding that he has the chance to take this thing further and actually become a contender.
Then he beats MacDonald and we fast forward to today and he's the consensus #1 guy in the Welterweight division of the UFC (which is considered by many to be the most stacked division along with Lightweight), who many thought beat the current Champion in a close fight (albeit the champ was injured)
I have no idea if this is even topic worthy. Probably isn't, but i'm up late and was just thinking. Pretty awesome stuff.
