    don't apply boxing euphemisms to MMA, it makes you come off that you don't know everythi

    and Kennedy would not be C-level if you were using that scale, he'd be more the level of guys right underneath the title (or B-level)

    Bisping just got old and had a year layoff due to an eye injury. He'll go down in the history books at this point as Britain's best MMAist and as the guy with the most wins in the UFC to never have a title match. He's at 14 now. http://www.fightmatrix.com/ufc-records/most-wins/

    Think a lot of people wanted Dan Hardy to be that #1 UK guy after he lost to GSP. And then he lost 4 in a row...

    the best up and coming fighter in the uk is Brett Johns.

    Jimi Manuwa I think is going to be very good. Just lost to Gustafsson in London not too long ago in Gustafsson's intermediary fight til he fought Jon Jones again, but no bad deal there.

    I thought he looked pretty good.

    Brum came out with Brett could never take him down so brett took him down over and over again.

    His striking is much improved since his first fights and he is always going to be a hand full on the ground due to the background in Judo.

    Brett may not look pretty and i dont think you are ever going to see him KO people but you cant say he has backed away from anyone in his 11 pro fights.

    apart from fucing up and not making weight

    HI Terry,
    For me it's Anderson Silva because I like his sharp fighting skills and presence of mind. It was a treat watching Anderson Silva in action.

    Lee Murray seemed to have the most potential and aside from dropping Tito in an alley - he never realized that potential.
