It's like expecting a baseball player to never strike out or a basketball player to hit 100% of their free throws or a soccer player to hit 100% of their PK's.....getting tagged on the chin happens and for a career as long as RJJ's and at such a high level you can't really say "he was always chinny", he became chinny after the weight loss but he's also older and slower as well. All fighters age, it happens.
