you could ask the same thing about Leben, losing 3 out of his previous 4, and in ducking Swick, actually getting to choose his opponent. With Swick unable to fight, Leben would have been smarter to have taken the risk and actually signed on. But yeah, TUF guys often get preferential treatment far beyond their relative skill set and ranking.
