#4 Nothing to prove
When you hold the record for being the longest reigning champion in UFC history, you can afford to be a little cocky. Anderson's consecutive victories in addition to his numerous title defences turned him from the average MMA champion into a one of a kind talent.
Nobody could even dream of replicating the kind of things he did and because of that, the guy really doesn't have anything left to prove anymore.
As an audience we know how good he is, we know how many fights he won and we know what a great career he had. In all honesty, what's left? The talent in the division is just getting stronger and with that in mind, the most logical move for Anderson is to put his feet up and bask in the glory of what he has accomplished since first starting this journey.
With that in mind, next up is something that nobody will want Anderson to tarnish.
