    Fedor seems to have an answer to everything in the ring...he has such an incredible skill-set. His ground and pound is something to behold, its a frightening barrage of controlled rage.

    Fedor is 6'1 and 230 pounds I think. He is small but has slayed giants and manhandled small guys. On top of that, at least 20 pounds of his weight is fat.

    Imagine him vs Griffin, Evans, Tito, Chuck, Rampage, Wandy, etc etc If he actually cut weight and fought at 205lbs he would be.....oh wait, he already is murdering people at heavyweight

    To put this into perspective, imagine GSP NOT cutting weight and fighting at Middlewieght, or Penn fighitng at WW :deal

    I think it is achievable. I have no doubt Fedor could lose 15-20 pounds and cut 5 pounds or so.

    Fedor would absolutely dominate like he is at heavy. Fedors grappling is of the highest order. His striking is quite terrible but he makes it work.

    I really like that arguement about Fedor not cutting any weight, being a small HW, but still accomplishing what he has. The way he dealt with things when he found himself underneath Hong Man Choi was an incredible sight to behold

    Silva's looked unbeatable for a while now, but then he's never challenged himself in the same way Fedor has throughout his career. Fedor actually seems to enjoy fighting to his opponent's strengths to give himself the ultimate challenge (the Choi fight and the Arlovski fights for example)


    Fedor KO2 Silva via muay thai clinch ;)

    Fedor is the best fighter in the world. As far as resume is concern Fedor resume is better than GSP imo.

    Heath Herring
    Big Nog- in his prime
    Fujita
    Goodridge
    Coleman-Former ufc champ
    Randleman-former ufc champ
    ogawa
    Crocop-in his prime
    Hunt
    Lindland
    Sylvia-Former 2 time ufc champ
    Arlovski-former ufc champ

    This guy is a beast

    Fedor no doubt. Silva is only considered because Dana White just says it over and over and over. But who has silva really fought? An old Dan Henderson was about it. The rest were one pump chumps and reality show nerds.

    Just going off of wins id honestly say GSP and Chuck Liddell for sure. However though after 30 plus fights with mostly top level fighters and to be unbeaten is just incredible. But agian when I stack up just wins I think Liddell has the best resume in MMA history.
