Which fighter kept fighting the longest after their prime ended?

[Ares Black]

Bj Penn, Anderson Silva, and about to add Frankie Edgar if he doesn’t retire soon.

Frank Edgar is still competing at the highest levels.

 

[Bluesbreaker]

It would seem many of the all time greats, perhaps from a generation or two past, have fought way past their primes.

Perhaps a money thing?

 

[GordaoPreguico]

Wand

 

[3rdAccount]

Who was it?

Chuck?
Sakuraba?
Big Nog?
Cro Cop?

Someone else?

Overeem?

 

[Starman]

I love Shogun, but he’s been out of his prime for about 15 years now. I don’t even think he was still in his prime when he beat Machida.

 

[Paladin]

Who was it?

Chuck?
Sakuraba?
Big Nog?
Cro Cop?

Someone else?

Baby J Penn

 

[Patman]

Sokoudjou’s prime was knocking out Lil Nog and Arona back to back.

He fought 32 more times after that lol.

 

[Sweater of AV]

Yuki Kondo fought in May. It was his 109'th fight.

 

[Cuttyrock]

Other than the growth hormone and diuretics shown in his UFC cribs episode on YouTube back in 2011 <Lmaoo>.

Also:

Hating as always. AS haters proving they are the worse

 

[Cuttyrock]

Saku is really the only right answer to this should not have ever lost to Aoki or Miller

 

[swarrrm]

Crocop is on a 10 fight win streak

 

[wufabufa]

That guy next to Anderson looks like Bas with a lot of hair lol.

I'm getting Bruce Campbell vibes from him.

 

[JosephTessaro]

Who was it?

Chuck?
Sakuraba?
Big Nog?
Cro Cop?

Someone else?

Cerrone.

 

[JosephTessaro]

Travis Fulton

He's still in his prime, bro.

 

[Vec-Tron]

Ken Shamrock should have stayed retired after nearly getting killed.

 

[2004 account]

Ken shamrock

 

[FIghtxIQ]

Anderson Silva. If he retired after the 2nd Weidman fight, he wouldn't have had all the drug controversy taint his legacy. Would be undisputed GOAT.

But then again he would've never lived out his dream to fight in boxing. Now the fight he's always wanted may happen, a fight with RJJ. He just got his biggest pay day in boxing and is lining up future boxing fights with legends. Would've never happened if he stopped fighting. Plus his accomplishments are still there, and nothing is going to change that. Unless another fighter is able to top his accomplishments he'll still be considered the GOAT to many people, especially in his division.

 

[Espresso]

Idk the answer to TS but Erick Silva has fought his entire career outside of his prime

 

[MeatWagon06]

Hard to say with Chuck. He seems to still have that look in his eye!

Eiffel-Toucher of Jabs?

 

[Lukn4trbl]

Conor

Oops...Toooo soon?

Definitely Tito; He should have stopped at cracked skull.

Last 10 fights in UFC: 2W - 7L - 1D
