    This is much more like it. Swap Machida and Rua around, replace Dan Henderson with Jon Fitch, and this would be my list.

    A top ten list is tricky but I would definitely move a few of these around. Fedor still belongs at the top as he is essentially undefeated.

    1 - Fedor
    2 - Anderson Silva
    3 - Georges St. Pierre
    4 - Lyoto Machida
    5 - BJ Penn
    6 - Randy Couture
    7 - Gegard Mousasi
    8 - Jose Aldo
    9 - Aoki
    10 - Cung Le

    And I know you'll all balk at Cung being on the list but I really don't care. He's undefeated in every sport he's fought in. :bbb:bbb:bbb:bbb

    BJ, GSP, Silva and Fedor. After that nothing is certain. Even those top 4 are thrown around. Those guys have a complete aura of invincibility in their chosen weight class.

    Machida defeated Rua. Great challenge from Mauricio but he lost and not just on the cards.
     
  7. Fedor is number 1.

    Some others on that list I dont rate highly. Some are very popular in America but havent really fought an international group of fighters, GSP, Anderson Silva and Lesnar are some that has mostly fought other Americans.

    I would rate Gegard Mousasi a far better fighter than many of that list. Look him up if you dont know Gegard.

    Good call. Mousasi is another good P4P contender. I need to revise my list.

    I'm agreeing with you.

    jimmie's list is very good, but he has Rua above Machida. I'd have it the other way around.

    You clearly are not a fan with knowledge if you classify what Lesnar does as "tackling and smothering."

    You're an idiot if you do not think he is not a top 5 HW.

    He is probably referring to career wide accomplishments. Honestly Lesnar SHOULD'VE been ranked no higher then Rogers after Rogers knocked out Arlovski. Rogers was undefeated with a brutal KO over a top 5 Heavyweight at the time, Lesnar was 4-1 or 4-1 with good wins over Mir and Couture. I honestly think Arlovski would beat Couture and Mir though and is the better fighter out of the three. Also he is exaggerating about Lesnars tackling and smothering because he is VERY skilled in the top position, but he is very one dimensional and I would actually love to see him against some tough wrestlers because Couture was giving him a go in the clinch and wrestling in their fight and he is very small at heavyweight, would be interesting to see Carwin and Cain in there with him.

    Lyoto Machida shouldn't be in any top 8 list

    Well in the list of more skilled HW's in wrestling from the clinch than Randy, the list is basically Fedor.

    **** no, machida got his ass beat that **** drinking didn't work
     

  15. There are ALLOT of far more skilled wresters/grapplers than old man Couture. Nog is one such opponent in the UFC.
