Nate is 37yo and 2-7 in the past 3-and-a-half years getting KO/TKO'd 4 times and has basically looked like total shit in almost every fight. He demolished Woodley and then fell off a cliff...

Just because he KO'd the poor chin of CB does not mean much imo at this point.

Am I wrong for thinking that he actually got lucky last night? After the beating that Big Tan Dan let Yancy take Nate could have been murdered by Santos before it would have been stopped.

Seems like a legit good dude and has a wealth of knowledge to pass on to others. Hope he saved some money and he can move to the next chapter of life that doesn't involve more head trauma.

Yeah, nate had some great fights, was a really well rounded dude but age has caught up with him (in a hurry). Time to go to the next phase.

Agreed. Every dog has their day, and I'm afraid this is Nate's. Why stick around and keep taking punishment like this? He can't be making that much $ right? Not worth it.

Yeah. I guess it is just really hard for these dudes to let the sport thing go. And it's not like football where if you start to suck you get cut and no one gives you an opportunity. In the fight game there seems to be endless opportunities for a name guy to get his ass kicked long after he should have stopped...

He's a very spiritual man and had a great (sic) career.

I'm sure he could do good work elsewhere.
