Even though we know father time comes for us all, it's such a sad thing in sports.

In other sports they have like Senior Tour or whatever. MMA you just get more damage, quicker.

I agree, age has caught up with him. He's just accumulating damage at this stage.

I really believe that fight with Justin changed his career. He took one of the worst beatings I've ever seen that night and since then he's looked slow and almost gunshy. Really a sad story in the UFC and him not tapping is just a prime example of this dude not knowing when to hang em up.
