Is Tony okay? He's actually being self reflective and grounded in this statement

If I had to guess (if his public persona isn't just a schtick,) it'd be that he's battling depression.

 

[Gabe]

If it wasn’t Gaethje it would have been someone else. He was getting old by then and his fighting style was bound to catch up to him.

Love Tony...and yeah sure that was a bad idea BUT it was a bad idea mainly because Tony decided to do TWO weight cuts unnecessarily prior to that fight. His pictures looked horrible. He was drained AF and drawn out.

It's actually surprising he lasted as long as he did in that fight given the punishment he took. And it unquestionably sent him off a cliff career-wise.

 

[Lycandroid]

bullshit he even had to take that fight in the first place

 

[MMAFanCal]

Glad he is now realizing things as they are. For the longest time, he was in denial.

 

[Pharenheit]

The most sensible thing he’s said in a long time

 

[Bowel-forged Stool]

So he’s admitting his head shook involuntarily from brain damage

 

[Chayanne]

What many fighters don't understand, your brain will always want and be motivated, but your body will deteriorate over the years, reflex slower, recover slower, train slower while your brain says yes I can do it

Who would have thought that throwing imaginary sand at your opponent wasn't a sure bet to win the fight. People lost millions.

Hell of a run while it lasted though.

Would have loved to see him fight Khabib in his prime.

Tony is getting himself together?

Damn, what happened to Tony? He sounds coherent and mentally-there.

 

[nostradumbass]

Goes without saying, but it wasn't just Gaethje, that's just when it caught up with him. He was getting rocked or dropped way too often to keep fighting like that.

 

[VinceArch]

Tony cut weight twice and still managed to drop Gaethje at the end of the 2nd round. Shows just how tough he actually was but his chin did give out that night.

Ferguson is going to be so shot by CTE in 5 years
