Hard to say he ducked Tony Ferguson...when given the choice to make $100 Ms vs Floyd Mayweather or fight for your life against Tony Ferguson for like $5 M, what's a guy to do?

Who knows if he's a drunk now, but there was certainly a dark period there.

To call him a "pet fighter"...well, maybe? To label him Dana's lapdog is to dismiss what he did on the way up - let's not forget he's got wins over Holloway and Poirier and Aldo and Alvarez.
