He was always in his fighting prime but his physical prime was near over before he started MMA
Yeah he was super mobile and dynamic then, he fought like a black Fedor. He's much more plodding now.hwgp in strikeforce
He was considerably faster than he looks now, he made everyone look like slow motion. Even now he is fast at hw and was making stipe look slow, but it's not what it was
His prime was when he was winning. Each time he lost to Jon he was instantly out of his prime, then back in prime again as soon as he won his next fight. He's out of prime again now that he lost to Stipe but will be back in his prime again if he defeats his next opponent.
This. He was an absolute beast in Strikeforce, and being in his lower-mid 30's wasn't quite out of physical prime yet..hwgp in strikeforce
