BJ Penn was amazing back in the days. He was one of the first fighters to be champion in two different weight divisions. He was a master at Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. He was arguably the number one pound for pound fighter in his prime.
Fast forward to now, he has lost 7 fights in a row (ufc record), he has been accused of threatening farmers and abusing his wife, he has been getting into fights with bouncers etc.
Another fighter who fell off badly was Anderson Silva. Longest reigning champion and now he is losing most of his fights and is being busted for PED's.
These fighters should have retired in their primes so their legacies would not have been so tarnished
