Yeah but like, if the UFC hasn't been impressed already are they really going to be impressed with a win over Felipe Colares, a guy who's Chase Hooper's last W.
This whole idea of guys waiting their whole career for a shot at the UFC saddens me. If they actually did right by the sport and snatched up every Denis Lavrentyev, Rustam Kerimov or Eduard Vartanyan I'd probably hate them a good bit less, just throwing that out there. They're in this position of ultimate power and control over guys not even signed by them and they fill half the roster with replacement level talent. I just find it so infuriating.
