    fighters all have a peak in their careers where they are at their very best. then obviously that gradually changes.
    i was wondering if after this happens, has there been anyone who has almost re-invented himself at a later time and achieved a second peak? where he is equal or even better than earlier.

    Randy, BJ, Dan Henderson all spring to mind.

    His career has taken off since incorporating basic boxing techniques into his game. At least, I think that's what people mean when they say Sonnen has only improved since he started JABBING!

    I've been EL BULLY and you guys have been great. Goodnight.

    Fans go on about 'the old Vitor', but the current Vitor is pretty damn good.
