What is the first sign that a fighter is getting old?

And before someone says age, look at the man in my avi.

Offense is last to go.

So punch resistance and reflexes. really, becoming a punching bag

[Mikel 45]

in my opinion taking shots that they previously would have avoided is one big sign.

Lateral Movement & Head movement.

Balance....

unable to throw combinations are take any kind of punishment

certainly balance

[MRBOOMER]

Muscle definition and lateral movement

I agree with balance, falling over on their front foot here and there.

sometimes I'll look at the inability to pull the trigger when there are clear openings that you know their previous version would have thrown in that moment. nt landed but thrown

Reflexes and speed. If a guy is getting hit more and can't land the punches he used to land.

I think, "can't pull the trigger" is the best way to describe an old fighter. He see's the punches he needs to throw, sees the punches he needs to evade, but he can't do anything about it.
