Agreed. The thing was, on TUF, he was a serious dude who seemed to be training/running etc., when all the other competitors on the show were fucking around. Then he got his title shot and it was like, where did that intense individual go? And again in the Franklin fight, why the hell not make cardio the main priority? Yeah, he might be one of the most skilled fighters in the world who might never get the spotlight again due to 2 poor performances.
