      And in all honesty the journeyman label shouldn't carry that negative of a connotation. Yes most MMA fighters who aren't cans are journeyman, but there's different levels to a journeyman. There's the lower level, un-ranked journeymen who are mid-tier, decent journeyman fighters who sit outside the rankings and might get into the top 15 and then there's the ranked journeyman who are actually good fighters. Some of them will slot into gatekeeper positions, others may be able to sniff a title shot but are unlikely to win it. Michael Bisping was perhaps the most successful journeyman ever as he eventually slotted into a gatekeeper position and eventually world champion.

    Pretty similar career trajectory compared to Chael imo, both have always been talented but there weaknesses saw them have a lot of losses they could have avoided, towards the tail end of their careers were able to shake of the journeyman label which saw themselves become top contenders who challenged for the title multiple times.

    Glad to see him getting love. I can't stand all the soft b1tch made fans who cry about him punching Colby. Colby had that coming, Colby literally asked Jorge to hit him next time they saw each other by telling Jorge it's on site. Unfortunately a lot of like I said soft MMA fans don't know what the term on site means. And even then, it wasn't a sucker punch, Colby saw masvidal coming long before the punch because colby tried to hide from him in the restaurant at first. Then masvidal got no respect going into his last fight. Everybody kept saying he'd get submitted early and easily. And I kept telling people if Damien Maia couldn't submit masvidal I don't think burns will either. Jorge deserves respect for his fight career. People say he don't have ground game but neither Maia or burns could submit him, and he submitted Michael chiesa so Jorge obviously has legit ground game. The only fans not respecting him are the new fans who came with McGregor. Anybody who was watching UFC before the Reebok deal and was a fan of Jorge before that knows hrs legit
