I know he's a talented fighter, but I don't understand the reason why he is the poster boy of MMA. He beat Sherk (not in Sherk's natural weight class), beat Koscheck (but went to a UD), barely got past BJ (and I would put money down that BJ wins the rematch), beat Hughes the first time after two kicks to the groin, beat Hughes again when Hughes didn't really train and was already beginning to go downhill, didn't train hard enough and proved he had a glass jaw after the first Serra fight and won the second fight when it was clear Serra hadn't really trained that much either.
He's talented, I'm not denying that. But everyone creams themselves over this guy. I don't understand why.
