She is still only 35

Not at all. Her soul and fighting spirit were already taken by Amanda Nunes before the fight even started. There's no coming back from that

Clickbait title?

I think she retired at the right point, i mean, she was CLEARLY shown her level and its like she knew didnt belong, so i guess once you peaked, the rest is just CTE waiting to pile up, even if WMMA.
 
No, she retired at the perfect time.

She was never really a good fighter. No real athleticism, super slow. Basic skills. And she was a proper FW too. She wouldn't have been able to make BW and even if she somehow did, the speed difference would have destroyed her.

And what would she have done at FW? The division had like 4 fighters. She just would have wound up fighting for the belt over and over against Nunes, who she had no hope of beating.

She got out before the UFC got rid of FW and got other work going for herself. If she had stuck around to the end and kept trying to be a fighter she would have had nowhere to go once the FW division died down. Most she could have done is gone to PFL when they had their big girl tourneys, but she would have gotten beat badly there.
