Don't forget this man. Don't forget his name. Don't forget what he has done. He has frustrated me and he has frustrated you but so has every fighter. **** M1, lets spend the next 3.53 minutes appreciating one of the few fighters to fight the BEST and DESTROY the best from the beginning!

the only mma fighter i saw in action that compares to the skill of fedor is anderson silva but fedor is still #1 in my book
That's my take on it too. Along with the fact that some who would like to see them get in the ring together don't know what they're talking about. Fedor would demolish Anderson.
Hmm as much as i love Silva i dont think he possess's the same killer instinct and simple devastation that Fedor has shown at such a high level and soooo consistently. Silva plays with his food. Fedor cleans up and makes sure he licks the plate every time. We know two things will happen in a Fedor fight. A devastating KO or a sub. He never toys with his opponents the way Silva does nor has he ever looked as vulnerable as Silva has on the mat.
You have captured the best points with this post:good:good Fedor is not about gamesmanship, he is about doing his best to dispatch a threat as soon as possible. But he is a sportsman while doing so:?. There will never be another Fedor.:happy
Agreed. Not comparable. Fedor is a breed of monster that is oh so rare. The devastation he created over 30 odd bouts is usually done by a few over 3 bouts at best. Even animals like Shogun etc struggle to replicate such awesomeness.
Closest iv seen is Prime Shogun. Look at what Fedor did vs a primer Herring and Nog. No one in their dreams would have expected such dominating and brutal beat downs. Shogun was the same in PRIDE. Although he looked more vulnerable. Especially when he lost to Coleman and his arm broke.
