seems like ufc does like them some matthew riddle…. they are building him at a nice slow and steady pace… being built up like this is the way to go for a young ultimate fighter fighter… this is how the ufc really stays on top at least in my eyes… sure they have the top guys the champions but guys like riddle in the future that really carry it… hes being built at a decent pace giving him time to really maximize his potential without getting thrown to the wolves… joe silva seems to know what hes doing…
certain tuf guys get thrown to wolves n others dont… eventually most of the basis of ufc is tuf guys who are young came up through the ranks and are solid contenders… nothing is better to show ufc dominance when a big named guy like lets say marcus z come over here and faces a guy like how riddle will look in 3 to 4 yrs… and gets demolished… thats really shows how good ufc is… and im not saying that would ever happen but the ufc has these endless constantly improving young tuf guys who are coming up in the best organization talent wise and must improve or get cut..
either way enjoy riddle wood like to see him finish some guys hes been training hard for a while now time for him to start showing something spectacular
riddle needs to show something
besides a stupid haircut fetish. maybe a sub or tko is asking too much

The UFC really has a hard on to develope Matt Riddle don't they?
They are babying him more than recent TUF winners.
