    Of course the drugs would be an issue, but you all are forgetting how good Kerr was technically

    Check out the no 2 on the podium

    Strikers? :lol: Yeah Cain is a striker? Geez what a reach. The only striker in the UFC is Overeem. Sounds like you haven't seen many of Kerr's fights. Gassed really bro? Reeeeally?

    Here's his ADCC and Free style wrestling creds. See that name there... Thats right Mario ****ing Sperry. LOL @ the gimps saying he had no BJJ. Dude was easily the BEST submission wrestler (heavy) of his day.

    What choo talking bout Willis? You seen any of his ADCC matches? Dude was a STUD. Mark was easily one of the best submission grapplers iv ever seen in MMA.

    So what you are saying is a Div 1 Wrestling Champ, who won the ADCC, and trained Muay Thai with Bas Rutten is good enough to compete today

    Yeah right...we should just dismiss him and unskilled because he fought 10 years ago Scurla...you know that

    Yep I have, that's why I think only Werdum would tap him.

    I think mentally he may run into some problems and of course there's the drugs, but they are intangibles

    High level ground and pound wrestlers with limited stand up are doing quite well in this day and age I seem to recall

    In all reality what's changed? Nothing much. Mark at that time was seen as the evolution of MMA. No heavy of his time boasted his unique blend of skills (drugs or otherwise). Based on his talent alone he'd easily be a wrecking ball in this current UFC with a rule set that favours grapplers. Mark also had excellent take down technique. Since this sports inception iv never seen any grappler bar Fedor who has literally rag dolled his opponents.
