    He's been knocked out cold over TEN TIMES. And by some monstrous hitters, too.

    He's achieved a ton in his career (and especially his K-1 stint) for someone who doesn't have a great chin.

    I just can't see where he can go from here because he isn't getting any younger and even when he had tried to adapt (lose the mass, be economical, he's gone to Jackson's etc) he's still been stopped.

    I agree.

    He's cannon fodder now and the chances of him ever picking up UFC gold are getting slimmer by the minute.

    That being said he could probably clean house over in Bellator now.

    He would likely destroy that Bellator "heavyweight" tourney lol.

    Then again no point in taking anymore punishment I'd hate to see meathead Ko reem. I hear he makes over 800k a fight but his brain surely is going to be hurting from all these massive blows.
