He started struggling 9 years into his career. The horror.

And then looked like a beast in his last 3 fights back overseas with no drug testing. What an amazing coincidence.

You don't think the level of competition was a major factor?

Murdered? No. By his country? Not even the US Army disputes that. Regardless, I can tell you without reservation that I will never admire any athlete's accomplishments more than I admire Pat Tillman walking away from a multi-million dollar contract to lay down his life for his country.

Excellent rebuttal to a fact.

Edit: In fact, Fedor got finished by 2 unranked HWs.

Guy obviously isn't very Anerican. One of the reasons baseball cards became so popular was because kids could have pictures of the best players they would never get to see play.

The fact that he started losing fights 9 years into his career? Not sure what kind of rebuttal you're looking for. Every great gets beat if he stays in the game long enough.
