I couldn’t believe how many journalists I respect, and even look up to, were absolutely shocked at the loss. We all watch so many fights, we see so many fighters walk into triangles like Fedor did, that I was surprised not just by the outcome of the fight, but by the reaction of the people around me. I understand that there’s a deification of Fedor, that there’s talk that he didn’t make mistakes, and that he wouldn’t make a gameplanning error like going to the ground against a multiple-time world champion in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Fedor’s loss? what bothered me was the discussion of Fedor’s invincibility.

If you fight often, and at a high level of competition, you’ll probably lose more than one. Even when Pat Miletich was the top welterweight in the UFC, he dropped multiple fights in other organizations. Competing regularly, against fighters who have solid backgrounds, means the possibility of losing multiple fights. When guys have skills, there’s a legitimate threat of being caught, even if its of the form of Anderson Silva vs. Ryo Chonan. If you fight enough in MMA, you’re going to lose one.
