A post highlights a recurring pattern in the UFC welterweight division where former champions tend to go on losing streaks shortly after losing their titles. The so-called "welterweight curse" has affected Johny Hendricks (three straight losses), Robbie Lawler (four), Tyron Woodley (four), Kamaru Usman (three), Leon Edwards (three), Belal Muhammad (two), and now Jack Della Maddalena (two). Della Maddalena's recent back-to-back defeats have brought him into this unfortunate trend. The post characterizes this as an unpleasant and persistent tendency within the division.
