    **** seems weird but **** it may just be GSP who else has beat Parysian,Trigg,Serra,BJ 2x,Hughes 2x,Fitch,Koscheck,Sherk ? Anderson Silva vs GSP could decide it.

    Liddell has beaten better opposition in the UFC than Anderson Silva, if the question is who is the best fighter in ufc history.

    GSP for me, BJ with a win over GSP last night, would have had a case, but now, no.

    Well alot of guys on the list have better UFC oppostion then Anderson Silva but guys like Liddell and Couture have alot of brutal losses. Anderson has been pretty dominant and if he where to be the one to end GSPs reign of terror of the last 5 fights that would be pretty special but even more so if GSP could do it because noboddy seems to think Silva is beatable when GSP has tapped twice in a octagon.

    good points, but a GSP win's over Silva, would cement him as the best of UFC history in my book

    It's def close between Silva and GSP and of course until recently liddell would be considered. Anderson is still undefeated in the Octagon so it's hard to take it away from him.

    I have to go with The Natural Randy Couture for somehow managing to have three separate careers by winning titles up and down the scales.

    Rashad Evans and Rampage should be in the mix

    Best I have seen in the UFC?? Anderson Silva and Machida (hasnt lost a round!!!)
    Best fighter ever in the UFC.. GSP maybe Hughes in terms of legacy.
