No doubt the guy fights well. If you ask me he hasnt faced true top notch competition. The guys he has fought are defenatly not push overs or cans, but lets face it, the WEC's featherweight division isnt stacked. As for him moving up to light weight, he would have no problem. Im sure the guy walks around at 155 to 160 easy. You have to remember, alot of these guys, if not all cut weight to make their weight class. For example, Forrest Griffin, cuts 35 lbs to make it to light heavy weight. Rich Franklin cuts from about 210 to 215. Anyway, as you may or may not know, WEC is owned by Zuffa, which also owns UFC, so im sure if Uriah realy wanted in, he could get in. But right now the light weight division in the UFC is stacked and with top notch competition. I think Uriah likes it where he is, he is the golden boy of WEC right now and making his $$$.
