I went back and re-read your second comment about "peaking" and it makes sense now. I was basing that on your first post. I'm on the end of a night shift, so sue me haha.
He isn't invincible, no. Every champion loses eventually. I just don't see any slowing down in that fight. Basically front-to-back ownage. Once he loses a round (no, he hasn't lost a single round in as long as I can remember... help me out someone) then I will agree he may have peaked. As of yet, not a single fighter can even win a round against him (discounting the last-second armbar win by Hughes and Serra's haymaker).

Also, I don't think his inability to submit Hardy was a sign of "peaking" as you state, but of Hardy's fucking zen-like determination not to tap out. Guaranteed he couldn't wipe his ass on Sunday the 28th.
