    who do you class as "very good fighters"?

    a shot to **** Nog?
    a massively over hyped and already exposed rookie Brock?
    Cheick "i knee yeure beullocks" Kongo?


    Dont slate Josh' record then try to bump up Cains as his is completely devoid of top fighters, unlike Josh, who holds a victory over one


    Youre all too happy to bring up Nog beating him but then pulling me up for it when i say he also beat nog around the same time. Cant have it both ways sunshine


    We're dealing with a fighter who's best win is far better than any win on Cains record. Has Barnett shown clear signs of decay in his fights since? Going by his two fights in 2010 (as many fights as Cain btw, who you seem to be implying is super active), the answer is clearly no


    A lot will depend on what happens next. if Barnett is quickly eliminated and Cain beats JDS then he can be ranked higher, likewise if JDS beats Cain and Barnett does well then obviously Barnett deserves to be higher

    But as it stands Cain has not yet done enough to be ranked higher than Josh

    Barnett should not be ranked higher than Cain, he's fought nobody's since pride, beebs is right, Cain may not av great wins but there better than josh's recent ones! Stop living in the past!

    Overreem managed to combined the 2 underlinded points in 1 fight with Mirko and Duffee is the rookie so he's justifiably higher than Cain.
    hehe Just playing, good points on the rest of your post but Barnetts comp is worse than Cains in the last 2 years or so. Like you said though we'll wait till the tournament kicks off and JDS V Cain :thumbsup

    IF youre outside of the ufc.. youre better than the ufc heavyweights according the internet trolls..
    Barnett... give me a break. He hasn't done **** in 5 years.
    Meanwhile JDS starches Werdum in like a minute.. and it barely gets mentioned.

    Crocop destroyed Barnett.. and one year later Crocop was losing to freaking KONGO and Gonzaga...
     
  5. Cain hasnt done enough and hasnt fought anyone of worth (apart from Nog who was already out of his Prime). Brock isnt what I would call a worthy fighter, the guys has limited submission and limited striking, in addition to a so so cardio and a low tolerance for getting hit.
