Success in this sport has a lot to do with name recognition (among fans, yes) and careers are short. So yes, a valiant losing effort typically contributes significantly to a fighter’s stock, even more so than an unremarkable victory.

I don’t even know about that. Without even parsing history: we just went from Aljo to O’Malley.

Wow.. those guys were going about 20%. Conor needs to give Paulie a call if he wants some real work.

When a massive underdog gives a top 5 fighter hell. See Rory vs Condit, Lando vs Fergs
