My guy is now 42 years old, i know Glover had a second run in him in his 40s and Cormier was at the end of his 30s when he had a good legendary run but...

Jan had a big surgery about 1 year and a half ago. During that time he wasnt even sure he wanted to continue.



He is a fighter that i respect a lot.

Hopefully he will be fine.

He had a tough and young opponent in front of him.
 
I respect his honesty for saying his shoulders aren't what they were five years ago. Most fighters never admits that kind of shit.

For those that didn't watch, Jan had surgery on both of his shoulders and the recovery was so grueling that he thought about retiring.

Thank you for this. OP's time stamp brings me to a part in the video that has nothing to do with his what OP is talking about.

He shouldn't have made that bet. But if @Versez and @Takes Two To Tango ever left this site for good, there would be a lot fewer threads around here. They bring the topics. Gotta give them that!
Random threads that don't matter do not make the forums better only worse so then leaving would be a good thing for everyone
 
Everyone has a time clock, plenty of guys know it's up but cash out the last few fights they can. I don't feel bad, pretty sure he's getting paid much more than his first UFC fights and he's probably putting in less work. Also wouldn't be shocked if he is only a wrestler now.
 
I'd dare say this is his last kick at the can.
I think its do or kill for Jan, maybe his last run at a title, he did a draw against the current champion....we can do us a Glover.

I am also in my 40s and certainly feel like I am pushing it doing randori against 20 y-o in judo. But HW is another business and styles make fights and IIRC he looked better against GOATOWL than Pereira actually did. I could see him winning a fight by TKO. But I have not followed his trajectory with attention, TBH.

Knockout power is the last thing to leave...and he has legendary polish power...hopefully he score a nice k.o this week-end...
