This is a good fight to gauge where Gilbert is at in his descent to retirement. I like it because Stephens is good enough that a win over him will probably see him ranked, but a loss doesn't necessarily mean the end. It's also not high profile enough to be the end of the world for the card if Gilbert doesn't make 145.
And Gilbert is also a big enough name that a win over him would be good for Stephens.

Seems like a good weight for giblert. He's always looked somewhat soft at 55.
