In general of course as not every fighters seems to hit their prime at the same time.Was there any studies done on this ? Because i've seen lot of numbers being thrown around. Some places i've read that it's in the mid 20 (24-25). Other places i've read that while your reflexes , speed and agility maybe at their optimum at 24-25 , MMA fighters (especially grapplers) are generally better and stronger in their late 20 , early 30's due to more muscular maturity , experience ect.
Personally i'm not sure that to think. From what i've noticed it seems that strikers generally hit their prime and are at their best in their mid 20s (Shogun , Cro Cop , Arlovski ect) while wrestlers or grapplers do tend to be better in their late 20s - early 30s. Would that be a fair assessment ?
