Getting beat by Kevin Lee was definitely not a good look for him, especially at a time where NOBODY was losing to Kevin Lee

How do you know he refused 6 different fights?
Guess he is trying to take the UFC into deep waters here and break them… good luck with that.
Most fighters know you might have to win more than one big fight impressively in the UFC after getting brutally KOed to get offered that big fight.
Look at Oliveira… he won six in a row vs lesser ranked fighters and then he beat Kevin Lee and thats how he got the Tony fight and then the title fight with Chandler.
Gillespie won six in a row vs lesser ranked comp (fightmatrix rankings) but got KOed by Lee and he still got a top 15 opponent in his next fight… so he is 7-1 in the UFC with one big win. Hell even a guy he beat like Vince Pichel is 7-2 in the UFC and he is fighting Madsen next who is only 2-0 in the UFC. Its a deep talent pool in that division. Much harder to get ahead there than in most other divisions. He has to have injury issues.
If the UFC will Ice superstars then they would definitely ice non-superstars, this usually happens when you continue to be difficult and turn down fights, or demand to throw away an agreement and ask for a better deal than you agreed to like Francis and Jon, not sire if that’s the case here but it very well could be
Cause I know these thing…
Don’t question me…
Anyway, here’s a saucccce,
