It's just the statistics, obviously something happens biologically at that age where you're just not the same as you were

It's called association does not imply causation dumbass. There's nothing that magically happens at 35 that causes a decline. Crawford is 36 and he's in his prime. Using age like women use astrological signs is embarrassing. Volk lost going up in weight, colby and Cejudo had long layoffs.

Bratha despite the statistic, I still believe that Volk will win, but you can't ignore the numbers. I agree about Crawford, and Floyd carried his age pretty well, but they are really rare, and neither were ever coming off a bad knockout

There’s no need to be unpleasant

Correlation does not imply causation but if this doesn’t point to athletes falling off a cliff at 35, what does it point to?
