I just wanted to pass on a well written article taking a look at some really interesting questions…Are MMA fighters doomed to decline after 9 years in the sport (regardless of what age they started at, or how many times a year they fought)? What are the implications of this career lifespan for up-and-coming fighters?
And is Georges St Pierre really on his last legs?
