Quit mma?

I kno he got put out cold by Jan, and jiri

N those were probably his first times getting koed,
Maybe he's re thinking his mma career?

Or secretly getting better quietly

Reyes was ranked #1 under Jon Jones,

But those 2 Europeans hit him alot harder then Jones did

N probably dropped Reyes pretty low on rankings

I think jiri did that upwards elbow to ko Reyes;
So Reyes chin is weaker now; but he is young ;, maybe his chin can recover.

U need a decent chin to be a good champ;; Floyd said that him self,;; Floyd had a great chin,; even if u landed on floyd , he can take it

I guess glover is just a smarter wrestler then Dominick is
Dominick Reyes is really athletic; n maybe got cocky after he almost beat Jones; glover took down all of his opps lately, but he does use his hard boxing to set it up,
.or he waited for jiri to throw a kick n catch it

Probably taking a much needed break. Those two KO's were absolutely brutal, and his chin may never be the same again.

Best chance for him is to give his body and (brain) the rest it needs.

He went from fighting journeymen to championship fighters. He did well vs Jon but Jon was checked out of the fight game for years. He looked better than he actually was, because under normal circumstances Jon would have turded him easily.

Some fighters can make a comeback but most can't. Guys like glover are an anomaly.

Reyes may fall into the category of a rockhold or weidman.

He may have had all the tools (maybe still does) but everyone telling him he beat Jones fckd with his head IMO

After that, he was never the same, even if Jones was checked out

All interviews with Reyes, no humble and went on about how he won that fight.. no honor
