Decades of injuries had completely destroyed his knees, meaning he could only walk in a slow, bow legged waddle and he couldn't really hit actual moves anymore, relying almost exclusively on weapons. It didn't help that he was pitted against much younger and mobile opponents who in reality could wrestle circles around him.
