So what happens if Weidman gets finished again by Rockhold? As harsh as it sounds, his career as a serious fighter will be over. Yeah, he'll still fight and win but he, at best, will be another Rich Franklin. Fighting with no real direction.
In contrast, Urijah Faber is always seen as a legit top contender. Why? Because In between his title shot choking losses, he'll dispatch 3 to 5 barely ranked guys. In doing this, he looks like a killer again and adds to his highlight reel.
The reason...
After a loss, elite fighters should fight lower ranked fighters
