Guymon couldn't handle the pressure of the UFC. He turned 36 last September, and admitted in interviews that his retirement alleviated all the stress and pressure he had been feeling in the UFC.
Remember, he attempted suicide a year and a half ago.
I would just caution against using such a fighter as a metric to gauge his opponents' skills. Guymon was at the very end of his career and it's clear his confidence and fight mentality was not at a high point in his last fight.
I am not bashing Guymon, just saying Guymon may not be the best guy to measure Demarques skills against, you know what I mean?
