People are getting way too ahead of themselves crowning Glover as the next big thing.
The dude's had one UFC win over Kyle Kingsbury (4-4 in UFC), and his previous 3 wins were over Ricco Rodgriquez, Marvin Eastman, and Antonio Mendes -- guys on their way out of the sport.
Yes, Glover looks promising but let's not go too crazy over him until he beats some top competition. I remember people gushing over guys like Denis Kang and Jorge Santiago too.
Well... If someone would step up and fight him, Im sure he'll prove himself in time

All this ducking talk is way overdone.
People said the same stuff about Machida and he ended up fighting pretty regularly. Palhares too.
Glover will fight again soon enough.
The guy has a what, 15-16 fight win streak going... Yah op, he's all hype... Sthu..
The thread is good, because Glover has one fight in the UFC. In the UFC he is unproven. He is far from a rookie though. He has good quality wins, but the UFC light heavy weight division is a tough division, and to think he is going to run through it is idiotic. There is a little hype there for sure.
Glover vs Machida would be an awesome fight.
Glover's hype comes from Joe Rogan having heard he's a beast in training, from his camp. Not from his record or past opponents. Which is fine. Nobody's saying he's proven, at least not UFC proven, just that he seems to be a legitimate contender. Time will tell.
The sport will grow stale if you don't allow yourself to be excited about new fighters, or fighters coming in from other promotions where they dominated.
What I don't understand is how he can have three wins in 5 months in the WEC, all finishes, including a win over Sokoudjou, and then no fights for 18 months, until he resurfaces fighting in minor promotions. What's that about? Did the guy do time or something? There's been talk of VISA issues...

I didn't call him all hype. I said he's unproven and promising.
I'm sure OP (if he wasn't in diapers still) thought the same thing about Anderson when he came to the UFC. Not saying Glover is Spider, but sometimes records on paper don't give you the whole picture. Take a look at 5 of his fights, you'll be amazed at the consistency of his performance and power/skill. 
Glover is a beast and will prove himself to the ones that have never saw him fight. If it was not for the Visa issue he would be more well known .
