42? Lol I'd seen 42 year olds fight. Guys like Randy and Hendo looked better at 47...than a 36 year old shogun. Shogun is more like a 62 fighter when you factor in his knees. His ACL, MCL, LCL tear, meniscus and patella problems.... IN BOTH KNEES. It's a miracle he could walk. Let alone FIGHT. It all went to pot some 6-7 years ago. His knees failed him. Shogun was one of the best and hardest kickers in the game and he was Quick!!!! Quick enough to catch a prime Machida. That's how quick. Then I think after the 2nd machida fight he had another surgery and just was never the same. Got owned by a young and most likely juiced to the gills Jones. Intro to the downward spiral.There's such a lack of common sense amongst " fans" that come on here.Rua (who I've been a supporter of for quite sometime) is not an elite or even top tier fighter anymore. He's only 36 but BECAUSE OF THE WAY he fights, we're basically watching a 42+ year old in the fight game.
Smith needs to check himself a bit because he also beat a "mediocre" Evans (at his stage of career).
As DC says, there are levels my friend.
I'd like to see Smith fight Latifi, OSP or even Rountree at this point and let's just see what happens. Maybe 205 is Smith's class and maybe MAYBE he is an animal .......and maybe not.We see this happen too many times and people still don't learn.
definitelyI don't care how you try and swing it
a 30-13 record isn't very good
Yet this guy KOed Shogun
Shogun is 7 years past prime
You get my point--- I used "42+" as a random number because most of the MMA world isn't fighting at 43.42? Lol I'd seen 42 year olds fight.

LMAO! Comedy!That's an overly long way of saying you have a sub-80 IQ.
If Shogun's prime ended at 24, when did it start?.....try 12.
Why UFC let Mousasi go is a crime. Dude is amazing.You get my point--- I used "42+" as a random number because most of the MMA world isn't fighting at 43.
I hate to say it (not really,lol) but that's why Gegard Mousasi is a paradox to this sport.Hes been fighting since 03' ....took very little damage over all these yearz, has a 44-6 record (and has been extremely successful EVERYWHERE including ufc)...36 finishes and is in his prime now and actually seeing the best version of Gegard now.Is there any fighter that can parallel all that.
.....and he's been elite for most of career(outside his first few years)
I was thinking the same thing when I read this thread title, wasn't robbie 1-4 coming back to the UFC before his epic run?Robbie Lawler is 28-12. What a can

You mean like Strikeforce?It's very rare UFC signs guys with double-digit losing records who aren't big name established veterans from like PRIDE or somewhere.
