You need to fight top competition, this p4p thing is static and should always be updated. Fedor hasnt fought top fighters. AA has been exposed as a joke lately and Sylvia? hahaha lets not go there. Meanwhile GSP has beaten Fitch who is still a freakin monster at WW and Alves will still be a destructive force. Top guys. As for Anderson, what can you say? Hes the Terminator, Alien, Predator and Robocop rolled into one. Hes the type that would make you rethink about a career change after fighting him.
1. Anderson "Spider" Silva 2. Fedor Emelianenko 3. George St. Pierre 4. Lyoto Machida 5. Miguel Torres
Exactly Too many folk are caught up in what Fedor used to be like in Pride in his prime years, probably the greatest fighter of all time. Back then he was constantly beating the top guys, he was easily the P4P King Thats changed though, for the reasons you've just stated
Actually, Anderson is so scary now, people trying to get into MMA are probably looking at the prospect at getting into a university first hoping that after they graduate Silva is done fighting.
FEDOR silva gsp machida penn 1. Fedor hasn't loss in years and has defeated 2 former ufc champions in less than 5 minutes. 2. Silva hasn't loss since he joined the ufc and has pretty much dominated most of his opponent. 3. GSP has been dominating his division 4. Machida also been dominating his competition. Interesting fight against shogun next. 5. Penn just showed everyone that he is elite compare to the rest of 155 lbs fighters.
Arlovski a joke? Arlovski is known for having a glass jaw. He got KO by a unknown fighter and all of a sudden his a joke? Fedor was stepping up his competition lately. Sylvia-Arlovski and barnett was supposed to be next but got caught cheating. I can't blame him for trying to gain an advantage against FEDOR. FEDOR is a BEAST.
Penn should be above Machida. He fights at a weight 50lbs below Machida and yet still moved up and fought him to a close Decision loss. Also he has only looked bad when moving up in weight. This is a P4P list, he lost to the P4P #2 up at his weight. What would happen if Silva or Machida fought Fedor, if GSP fought Silva??
Top Tier, too close to decide; done alphabetically. 1. Anderson Silva 1. Fedor 1. GSP 1. BJ Penn (rejoins top tier after destruction of #1 conteder; nobody touches him at 155) Second Tier 5. Lyoto Machida 5. Mike Brown
Nah Arlovski is supremely hyped. Lost to Sylvia twice!!!..beats journeymen mostly..close fight with Werdum whoop de damn thats a moral victory right there. Got killed by Fedor with one punch. Got brutalized by Rogers...I mean you cant defend his record. Oh a fading Rizzo also whooped his ass. I mean how much can one man take?
