Who has he beaten who is so meaningful? Uriah Hall, Vitor,Marquardt? They lose to everyone. He beat a weathered Tim Kennedy, which means nothing. Lost to Magny, who is questionably top 10. And then gets destroyed by Weidman, who everyone here says is the most horrible MW of all time (despite his being a great fighter).

Why is Gastelum so heralded? Is it the thing where people are inspired by a fat guy beating the odds?
 
He has great footwork for such a young age, are you trolling or not watching, his growth from TUF to now is remarkable,...
 
He beat the current WW champ, imo.
 
He won TUF
Boxing has improved
Wrestling didnt look good lastnight but vs guys his size he has pretty good wrestling

Uh, footwork is what makes him a great prospect? Didn't help him against Chris.
 
Kelvin is only 25 and will be in the title mix for years to come.
 
Who said he was such a great prospect ?

Maybe at WW if he'd been able to be a pro, and make weight. But, at MW. If he doesn't get the KO. He's at a disadvantage size wise.

So again...Who said he's a " great prospect " ?

Like the whole world. Listen to Chael's podcast.
 
- Won TUF
- 25
- Amazing striking
- Great footwork
- Outstanding cardio

If that's not a great prospect, what is?
 
Nobody dare to give a like to this man.

Gastelum just has a feel of a top fighter in my eyes, I don't know what it is he just does. He had some good performances and has beaten some good fighters. We'll see what the future holds.

Sherdog after 3 fight winning streak: "he won 3 in a row he's a top 3 for sure in his division!"
Sherdog after 1 loss: "Wtf he should be canned from the UFC!"
