Is a baseball player is afraid to hit against a good pitcher because is batting percentage would go down? No, it's a good challenge.
Love him or hate him, Dustin Pague fought a guy on 8 days notice. That's 2 fights in the UFC in 2 weeks. Against a guy who had a full training camp. Took him to a split decision. At least he is a fighter. To many guys want to be labeled "the Goat". Well the true "Goat" isn't afraid to fight.
