Dude has been fighting in Bellator since before the UFC had a featherweight division, the only guy his age or older still ranked at featherweight are Emmett and Kattar who both look pretty washed.Not that much mileage. If you compare the quality of his competition to someone like Max, it's not even close.
We'll see how Max looks in 4 years. He's been fighting for 6 years longer than him and has 10 more fights, in fact he has more fights than anybody in the division in the UFC beside Cub Swansons who has one more pro fight.
He's been in quite a few back and forth fight where he's taken a lot of damage, especially when he was younger. Anyway the level of opposition point is moot as most milage comes from training camps anyway.
