Was Fedor always "not that good" or did he run out of gas?

[CSL]

since I got into MMA, I've always thought he was overrated, didn't really beat anybody of worth from like 2005 onwards yet so many people were still all "greatest fighter ever!!". That said, I think the whole "Fedor exposed!" stuff that a lot of people crow about after his losses is pretty bullshit. 33-4 is still a beast of a record, I only think he lost to Werdum because of over-confidence/a false sense of invincibility/a lack of respect for Werdum and I'd say he was borderline unlucky in the Bigfoot fight because he'd have had a third round if his eye hadn't swollen up like a baboon's arse. The only "decisive" loss was Hendo and even then he got KO'd with a shot nobody ever saw coming that Hendo probably couldn't that perfectly in 99 more attempts. Basically, I still think he could do a job for Dana and that people would pay to see it, would still love to see him in the UFC.
