Robbie Lawler hasn't been knocked out a lot but he's been fighting for a long time and has been through a lot of wars. It's like he speaks slower now than he did just 4-5 years ago in Strikeforce.

Overseen is another that gets rocked easy nowadays. Had he been KOd before Chuck hit him with that baseball throw in Pride?

Ya it's just uncomfortable to watch some interviews like Gray. I love the sport but there's going to be a lot of guys in that kind of shape.

Struve seems to be the exception to the rule. He's been brutally KOd numerous times but can still take a punch.

The more concussions you have, you the must susceptible you are to future concussions. The heavyweight fighters are clearly at the highest risk, especially older ones like Nelson

Not being knocked out a lot in fights doesn't mean he isn't taking hits to the head. People get dazed all the time when sparring
