Who had the worst downfall from grace?

I think this probably goes to Silva, went from being GOAT contender to unable to beat anyone.

Penn had a pretty brutal down fall too.

Ferguson (although not done yet), Liddell, Weidman, Woodley, and I’m sure I’m missing some others.

Who do you think had the worst downfall from grace in mma?

Penn looked like a bum in the end. Silva was always competitive, even against Izzy, Bisping, Brunson... The only time he was soundly dominated was a short notice fight with DC.

A.Silva- was the undeniable goat during his peak to losing to Jake Paul at the end.
Penn going from LW Goat to getting KO’d by a fatty outside a bar is a close 2nd.

Out of those lot BJ.
Renan Barao too.

How could you not even think to put the most obvious person: CONOR MCGREGOR??

Penn, no contest.

As bad as the others were at least they were being KOed by other pro fighters.

BJ was getting planked by obese drunks out on the street.

For this list Tyron and BJ

Penn

In WMMA, Rousey had a brutal fall from grace

 

[Xoleth]

Anderson had the excuse of the broken leg

I voted Tony, because he went from a great winning streak to losing extremely bad.
I should have voted BJ Penn.
But still, BJ lost to Nick, Rory, Frankie, Yair and Ryan Hall... all legit fighters, some bigger than him and Hall with a very good submission game. Two decisions vs Siver and Guida.
Until the leg breaking, Chris lost only to top competition.

 

[KAZSoliloquy]

of these choices, tony.

Sherdog.

The "new" forum layout looks like a boxing forum I used to post at in 2003.

 

[Bobby Boulders]

Hard to consider anyone falling further than Chuck or BJ. Chuck so delusional he was calling out Jones leading up to the fight with Tito, who KO Chuck with relative ease, but at least Chuck got KO by a legitimate professional fighter. BJ isn't even a shell of who he was, who he was doesn't even exist at all anymore.

 

[andgonsil]

Renan Barao

 

[Bouboumaster]

Of those, BJ Penn for sure

Barao and Rousey with a shout out too

“Jolie’s wife.”
“Your wife is in me DM’s.”
He had the worst fall from the Goat trash talker to a joke of a trash talker.

Fall from Grace I would tend to exclude those who aged out and more those at/near the top of their game but plummeted seeming overnight.

[Yep]

I guess i don’t understand the question. What is fell the hardest when they fell? Ronda is an example of fell the hardest to me. Maybe Tyron. The others stuck around too long. Maybe it’s me who differentiates the two. I think aging and the skills just not being there anymore isn’t a fall. It is what it is. I think getting whooped while supposedly at your best and then running away is more of a fall from grace than a person who just can’t hang it up.

I didn’t see your post but that’s how I feel as well.

This seems to be more of an example than the others to me.
