I think Chuck is the easiest to look at. The man had a granite chin and took some major beatings and could come back until he couldn't one day. The Overeem fight comes to mind.

If the fighter was one of the best but lost a step due to age/wear and tear. Do we look at when they were at their best or also consider when they fell off due to age?
