I agree. And his corner had nothing for him either.

He definitely has a chin and took some hard shots. The raw materials are for sure there but the hype machine and rush to capitalize on a fight set him back. I hope he doesn't turn into another Sokodju
One of the great things about Stipe winning is he is on #teamfuckdanawhite and I am all for that plus he's another champion who isn't about all the bullshit Rousey/McGregor/Lesnar era crap
