Like he as a No Contest to Anderson Silva
Let's break that down
Nick originally fought at 155, is a small to mid sized 170 pound fighter, He was a tiny 185
Silva is a 185 fighter that cuts from 220+ pounds, and has fought at 205 3 times (before DC Fight) Knocking Out every one of those 205 fighters. He's a huge 185'er
Nick Fought everyone.
Nick called out Vitor right after Vitor knocked Luke Rockhold's head into another universe with a heel kick
Nick Called out GSP, GSP held him for most the fight
Nick Called out Silva for years (before Silva was beat by Weidman and nooo one was calling him out)
