Who was greater: Liddell or Cro Cop ??????

Absolutely! But in fairness, it certainly takes "something" from the value of Cro Cops win...which in essence...is what we are evaluating.

 

I think he means MMA though. I say Liddell is greater there.

 

i dont think so wanderlei was arguably in the top 3 best pride strikers in the world at that time therefore i do not think it takes anything away from mirco cro cop.

 

Well, of course it does! Anytime an individual fights an opponent from a lower weight division, surely, that diminishes the win...at least marginally...regardless of the skill level of the opponent. :huh

 

nah i dont believe it does if you got prime takanori gomi to fight a welterweight im pretty certain that gomi would win same with fedor. Fedor is essentially a lightheavyweight and fights at heavyweight, and rocky marciano who was a lightheavyweight and fought at heavyweight and had no losses.

Cro-cops best win is better than Liddell's best win(and he did it 3 x) but overall I give it to Liddell.

 

Your logic is completely flawed. The reason weight classes exist is because weight puts someone at a competitive advantage/disadvantage. atsch

I really have nothing more to say...cause what your saying is shite.

 

but wanderlei was a middleweight in pride which the equivalent to a lhw therefore the fight was pretty equal as mirco cro cop was a lhw.

 

Cro Cop without a doubt. Chuck cuts down from about what Mirko fights at, so there wouldn't really be much of a size difference, if they had ever fought it would not have ended well for Chuck.

 

Chuck Liddell he was better in the big fights, grabbed a Championship and held onto it for a very long time while blasting great competition.

 

Although I was never a fan, I have to go with Chuck.

 

Even a shot Liddell in his last 5 or so fights was doing well, if he's punch resistence hadn't gone to the dogs then the Franklin, Evans and Shogun losses could've been victories.

CC last 5 fights (against b and c lvl) he looked adsolutely awful.

Prime v Prime is very close maybe CC slightly

 

Cro Cop was a Heavyweight
