Uhhhhhh - left on a 5 fight stoppage streak ...fought out his contract at 7-1 ( and a fluke one at that ... WHICH HE WENT BACKWARDS AFTER GETTING INTO TOP 5 to avenge just to shut everyone up) and finished against a larger wrestler one fight removed from being champ.......AND WAS OFFERED ONE to expedite the negotiation period ( or the lack of one but the brit said " no".....and so those useless 90 days took its course).
How's that ?
5 in a row from a guy in his prime, reached #3 and one of the best cage fighters in sports existence??
