I think he should talk to Dominic Cruz. Cruz is cocky to the point of being annoying, but he's also pretty good defensively having that weird unorthodox style. Ugh, hate to say it, but Jon could probably help him a lot as well.
Rumble would have been tough, but I don’t think Santos would have beaten him. Obviously Santos could have knocked out a water buffalo, but at his best he cruised against these methodical strikers and exploded at the right moment. A pressure guy with more physical gifts is a TUF out for a guy who likes to cruise at range with a couple of explosions per round.I just think it comes with the territory. Him being that aggressive gives him the openings because his opponents feel suffocated.. That type of pressure just calls for a great chin and stamina. I feel like an explosive guy like pre injury Santos or Rumble would have smoked him, but the competition right now is pretty basic.
