Should these guys be ahead of Anderson Silva? Ryo Chonan Daiju Takase Luiz Azeredo? Simply because they were able to beat Anderson Silva and because Anderson Silva never beat them in a rematch? Quote:
Apart from Werdum and Fedor, who else has better ground game? and apart from Fedor who else has better standup? Would you consider him legit if he goes around beating up old retired people and beat up someone with no standup and ground game? Quote:

Fedor can rebuild his rankings most certainly but he just hasn't done it yet. If he stepped into the UFC tomorrow and beat Cain Velazquez he would be back on top but until he does so Cain is the man to beat at heavyweight. |

They are saying that if Silva was #1 at the time, and then lost, he would not be #1 after losing, before he even has another fight. |

BTW your preaching to the choir when it comes to Brock as I never thought he deserved to be ranked #1. But to not have him in the top 10 and to have guys like Del Rosario, Gugenishvili, and Cormier ahead of him and other proven zuffa mainstays is just retarded. Honestly it just looks like you were just struggling to find names for your top 10 that weren't Mir, Carwin, Brock, or Nog. |

If your arguement was somehow valid then why hasnt Tim Sylvia regained his number one spot, why hasnt Barnett regained his number one spot, howe about Alex E etc ect? All of these fighters has been on a winning streak. OR IS THE RULES SOMEHOW APPLIED DIFFERENTLY WHEN ITS A ZUFFA FIGHTER? |

You dont rate those guys probably because their names havent been talked about by Dana White ![]() .Those guys are as legit as Cain, has similar record, some have better background and some have even shown more skills. Again is these UFC fighters wont fight outside competition then we will never know how good they truely are, the only thing wee can rely on then is the skills shown by the fighter, their experience and records. |

You never know how two fighter's skill sets match up until they actually fight. Trying to determine who has more skill between one guy who has been fighting legit contenders and another guy who has fought nothing but cans is a useless endeavor for obvious reasons. The difference between Cain and those other guys is that Cain has fought legit comp where those other guys are just racking up wins over guys who have records littered with losses. The only unbiased way to do rankings is to rate by recent win/losses first, and older win/losses second. If you want to talk all time, then yeah Fedor is probably #1 but to call him #1 in current rankings when he got subbed in less than two minutes is fuckin laughable. Trying to discredit Frank Mir's win over Big Nog when Nog was the #2 Heavyweight in the world at the time is worse than discrediting Fedor's wins over Arlovski and Sylivia because of their subsequent losses. Like it or not Mir has wins over top heavyweights and deserves to be ranked in the top 10 more than guys like Bigfoot (win over Big Nog > win over Arlovski) and guys like Del Rosario, Gugenishvili, and Cormier (wins over Nog, Kongo, Cro Cop > wins over cans). If those guys get wins over some proven contenders then I'll have no problem ranking them but until then they are just big question marks. And stop bringing Dana into this discussion. I told you I make my own rankings, I don't need Dana to tell me whats what. |

Ryo Chonan isn't a middleweight anymore and lost to guys like Dan Henderson (who Silva beat) and Paulo Filho (who lost to Chael Sonnen who Silva beat) when he was. Daiju Takase has lost numerous times to unranked fighter's since he beat Silva 7 years ago and clearly has no relevance to today's MW division. Luiz Azeredo's win over Silva was controversial and it wasn't even at Middleweight. Plus it was a decade ago. Clearly not a relevant result. Seriously Monaro I can't believe I have to spell this all out for you. |

LOL this makes me want to see your Middleweight rankings. They can't be worse than those piece shit HW rankings but I hope you surprise me.

I don't even know why I'm bothering to try to get through to you. You'll probably only respond to one line of this post and make the same asinine points you've been making this entire thread. Are you sure about this? Its funny the way you defend your BFF.[/quote] Haha now you just reaching. Hey howabout you start nut hugging on a fighter that fights more than just once a year? Maybe it will give you something else to talk about. Peace out MoronoCuntry |

Right, he says "well the UFC fighters don't fight everybody in the world" when in reality the Strikeforce and Dream fighters are just as seperated from the world, plus they don't even fight each other.
The only people who truely are fighting in many different MMA organizations are journeymen who are not quite standing out or not quite winning enough to be signed by a big organization. |
