Gurgel fought on TUF with a severely torn ACL (as a result of a Masakazu Imanari heel hook, Gurgels only loss at the time), and in addition to that he moved up in weight from 155 to 170 to basically fight bigger guys who have fully functional limbs. In his fight against Hominick, not only did he hold his own in the stand up department (something not even Yves Edwards could do) his ground game had Hominick so scared that he literally turned his back and ran like a coward in fear of being taken down, and yes Abaddi is a can.
