Fighters that tend to fold when the going gets tough or have never made comebacks to win

What are some fighters u think who fit this mold?

Vitor - almost all his wins are from the first round storm hes infamous for. Tends to pull guard and quit when he runs out of ideas. Hes never come back from being hurt or being down to win a fight.

Aoki - quits when he cant work his grappling. Ass scooting against Giblert, quitting after Eddie knocked him down in the hematch. Quit against Mach the 1st time (got KTFO the 2nd but it was a quick one). Did well against Hellboy early in 2nd fight, quit in the 2nd when he got put in a bad position

BJ Penn - always has great 1st rounds, has never come back behind to win a fight. Infamous quitjob against GSP

Crumble - folds when it gets tough on a consistent basis, similar to Vitor. Dangerous finisher but his confidence wanes easily and he folds (most preferred method RNC)

Overeem - similar to Vitor and Crumble

Guillard -kinda the same as above

Sokoudjou - same.........

Erick - this era's premier quitter
 
Hate to say it but bj kinda folds, im a big fan tho
 
Crumble is my guy but it's true. Not mma but Tyson is the first that comes to mind too
 
Is that vitor ( looking likes james thompson) inviting sakuraba into his guard? Wow u have to be fucking crazy to invite sakuraba into ur guard im not sure i ever saw that fight

That might have been the first fight where he resorted to pulling guard after breaking mentally. And Sakuraba played with him after that.

Although I'm huge fan I think Andre fits that bill a bit. If he can't land that powerful right and cleanly control his opponent, he seems to run out of ideas fast and get frustrated. I know his chin is suspect, but I thought he gave up too easy sometimes, like his fights with Rumble, Tim Silva rematch, Bigfoot, even in his victories against Schuab and MIr. No hate at all, I love Andre, just sometimes as a fan yah know...

I agree with all of those.
To some extent, Donald Cerrone, Gray Maynard, Faber (has he ever won a fight he was losing?) Edson Barboza

How did that happen? Sakuraba connect with something uncharacteristically massive on the feet? Holy shit i just looked it up that was the fight after he KOd Wandy wtf why is he flopping?!

Andre can be careless... That chin first flying knee attempt against fedor lol. Not to mention even in his win over brown he was flailing his arms all over throwing backhands and shit (see pimp gif), hes lucky brown didnt miocic him
