I know. If Tito Ortiz, Vitor Belfort and Liddell can beat Couture, why does Couture beat Fedor at Heavyweight?

People often wonder how this guy be such a top fighter. I agree that he seems like a nice guy in those pictures but he also looks very strong. Once in the ring his cold face looks very menacing. When I first saw him fight I thought that he was pretty intimidating. I showed my cousin the Fedor Randleman fight and he saw Fedor for the first time and thought he looked like a mean son of a bitch.

couture beat tito, and vitor win cuz of a shitty cut. i still pick fedor over couture, just tryin to straighten up the facts

It really looks like that pesky U.F.C., Pride, Dana white thing is taking it's toll on him. He is by far my favorite MMA'er. Has been for years. I just pity the crook who thinks he is nothing and tries to mug him.

Couture showed just how good he is when he beat Ortiz. Some great skill displayed.

Belfort won one out of three simply because he accidentally fingered Coutures eye and got an injury stoppage.

Liddell put on two fantastic performances in how to beat the come forward, brawler, take down guy BUT fair is fair because Coutures first fight with Chuck was great stuff.

That's right, Tito Ortiz lost, my mistake,I was just throwing out names. I don't consider Ortiz much of anything, Belfort was talented, but no substance and losing to Liddell is okay considering the styles.

But there is no way Couture beats Fedor peak/peak, that's insanity or fanboyism to suggest so.

Besides, people think that a win over that slow, unskilled Tim Sylvia is reasoning enough to pick an oldman like Couture over Gonzaga...

Not much, but Couture hasn't got a chance in hell vs. Fedor at any point.

The main point was he was defeated by lesser fighters, MUCH lesser fighters, specifically Liddell, even with styles considered. Randy equally has less of a chance against Fedor stylistically. Fedor can own him standing, in a clinch and on the ground.

I thought I remembered Tito beating him, but I admitted that was an error on my part.

I hate younghypnotiq.

Think of the strength advantage in the clinch though.

Did you see how Lindland picked up Fedor and was carrying him around in the clinch before Fedor threw him and subbed him. Randy is a bigger, stronger version of Lindland. As I said though, I still pick Fedor to win, I just think the clinch game is relatively even.

Do I underrate Couture?

I think so. He is an excellent fighter. Someone saying he would KO Fedor twice is what probably makes you underrate him. Randy is up there with the greatest ever, Fedor IS the greatest ever, that's the problem.

I HATE younghypnotiq.

But, I am skeptical that some people think Couture is rejuvinated, just because he beat that joke Sylvia(I picked him in that, easy). I think Gonzaga brutalises him.

Not bigger strikers, but grapplers bigger than him that are able to offset his wrestling skills and ground game give him trouble. A fight with him and Gonzaga should show if Gonzaga is really as good as some think.

I think that Cro Cop removes Gonzaga's head in a rematch, but I still think Gonzaga is very good and will beat Couture. Gonzaga has more potential than anything, a big athletic guy with good fundamentals and a lot of strength....
