Right......and if you look at how Fedor has conducted his career post pride you will prob notice it's to entice his dilusional fans, it didn't matter how many shitty matches he took, he beat nog and cc so nothing else matters. Just imagine if Dos would get to fight as many freakshow fights and has beens as Fedor fought what his record would look like. but Fedors fans don't want to hear that....he can fight anybody and it's "a good fight" And as soon as he loses....it doesn't count count because he's "shot" or " past his prime....even tho his first loses were in his early 30's and he hadn't been in wars in years. nog may have an excuse to be shot but Fedor just stepped up in comp and then lost...plain and simple.
I've had my all time top 5 mma heavyweights set in place for quite a while, and realized that they may need adju$ting recently. For a couple of years it has been Fedor, Nogueira, Cro Cop, Barnett, and Couture. I glanced at Dos Santos' resume a few months back and realized he was already pushing his way in. I love Couture, but I think I can say he is below Dos Santos now. Barnett has a lot more fights, but the fact that he's probably been on gear the whole time pushes me to put Dos Santos above him. Fedor may have a lot of filler on his resume, but his wins over Nogueira and Cro Cop are what separates him from everyone else. Outside of Fedor, Nogueira has wins against everyone he ever faced in Pride. In fact, had Nog never faced Fedor, he would have the best resume ever. The same could be said of Cro Cop, had he somehow managed to avoid Fedor and Nogueira. Cro Cop's UFC performances hurt his record some, but it is important to take into account where they took place. Cro Cop is not good in a cage. I realize he is a fighter that hasn't adapted his style as he has aged, but that is not the sole reason from his fall from the top. Cro Cop's grappling is not suited for the cage. The Kongo fight showed us this. However, Cro Cop was more than formidable in the ring, and that is where Fedor defeated him. Junior Dos Santos may or may not become as great as, or greater than, Fedor. Velasquez may go on to be the same kind of resume maker for Dos Santos that Nogueira and Cro Cop are for Fedor. Time will tell.
Re:Rek, very good post. Give JDS 3 months until the Cain 2 fight, and he would have the 3rd best resume at HW :deal
No, of course not, noboby even knows who Fedors 3rd best win is yet we are under the impression we must lick his bag! If you can come up with a better 9 fight win streak please let me know!
when you say resume, I assume you mean if he will win? because it's a fact Nog has the best "resume" of people who he has fought but winning of course is a different thing all together. But If Dos should beat Cainx2, Reem, and Cormier I don't think anyone can argue that it would be the best HW resume of all time.
Still up there I see, buy a pogo stick, or maybe and industrial vacuum cleaner Here big letters for you, so you can see it's not a UFC v PRIDE preference
