Saddest fall from grace for a UFC legend?!?!

[Lionheart7167]

I'm going to toss Fedor in the convo too, just cuz

Who do you think has had the worst fall from grace and WHY????

Just throwing out a few names; Liddell, Tito, Couture, Fedor, Nog, Penn, Cro Cop, Hughes, Silva

 

[Lodbrok]

Oh man shud up

 

[Z28MARO]

Joes commentary made it more brutal. "oh my god"

 

[StraightleftKO]

No Anderson Silva and it's not even close. Got dismantled twice by Weidman. Got caught for PED's which tarnished his legacy. Hasn't won a fight since 2013 and been on a losing streak since then and he is about to lose again at UFC 208.

 

[The Witcher]

No shogun? Fail.

 

[Th3Sav4ge]

ken SHAMrock

 

[wildchild88]

Liddell's

 

[UFCFAN18]

Mine will forever be Chuck Liddell we have seen a lot of guys deteriorate but Chuck's chin was literally GONE.

 

[batafrak]

Tim Sylvia.



Jk no one likes Tim Sylvia.
Iceman.

 

[Glove]

Chuck Liddell - UFC
Mark Kerr - Outside UFC

 

[Bewareofdawg]

BJ Penn and it's not even close.

 

[Kowboy On Sherdog]

Gotta go with Couture. And BJ & Anderson close behind. Wish these guys would have gone out on top like GSP.

 

[UFCFAN18]

Tim Sylvia.



Jk no one likes Tim Sylvia.
Iceman.

Well you might be right.

 

[The Big Babou]

A couple of other fighters come to mind:

Ken Shamrock... a shadow of his former self yet still fighting.

Also, Mark "The Smashing Machine" Kerr... I advise all Sherdoggers to watch the documentary.

Funny how PED's were fundamental to the success of both fighters...

 

[jk7707]

Ken Shamrock. He went from being a respected pioneer of the sport to a complete laughing stock.

 

[Chillez]

Chuck Liddell downfall was awful his chin was completely gone and done for.

 

[jimmylmao]

mcgregor when he lost to nate diaz in the first fight.

yes, he was a legend.

 

[BigMuffler]

Mine will forever be Chuck Liddell we have seen a lot of guys deteriorate but Chuck's chin was literally GONE.

Damn, Rich's godly power.

 

[ThoseAreMyShoes]

Penn. Alright he's 38 but he's last two fights were ridiculous. Guys on bully beat down are more competitive.

 

[kpt018]

Easily Chuck Liddell. His losses at the end of his career were the most brutal of any elite fighter that we've seen in MMA.

Liddell's strategy was to drag guys into a brawl and rely on his chin and punching power, which worked great until his chin was no more.

I won't be surprised if he's a vegetable in his older years, if he doesn't have problems already.
