Can't argue with those facts. He'll be heading to retirement homes to battle old boxing vets at this rate.
Except those are current ages. He beat Shogun, Rampage, Machida and Rashad when they were between 29 and 32...pretty much your athletic prime.
Sheesh, this may be the dumbest of the dumb posts.
Don Frye wants Jon Jones next
Look at the age of ALL ufc champions. 35 is too old for athletes.DC shouldn't be in the old men category, he is a young guy, who started like 3 years ago and fought a great fight. Nothing in this fight was an age factor.
According to the UFC's official website, there are just 26 active fighters on the light heavyweight roster, and including Jones (19-1 MMA, 13-1 UFC), only four are 30 or younger. Six fighters are on the wrong side of 35, and currently, the average age of the division as a whole is 32.9 years old.

none of them were in their prime, perhaps with the exception of Machida and Rashad, 2 notoriously undersized opponents.Except those are current ages. He beat Shogun, Rampage, Machida and Rashad when they were between 29 and 32...pretty much your athletic prime.
