The main reason he gets so much hype as a top tier fighter is simply because his opponenets have not been able to show he is anything but top tier. Vera has ridiculous trainers(Rob Kaman, and Lloydd Irving), and fighter w/ personality. Something a lot of fighters are lacking. I wont say he is the best(he has not had enough fights IMO to wear that mantle, besides Fedor is wearing that quite nicely at this point), but I think he will be.
