    No he's shot alright.

    Not Arshotsky shot, and he'll beat dudes, but he's done as a top fighter.

    Are you being serious? He successfully defended it 2 times.

    Yep.

    HW ya know....but it's better than Middleweight. :atu:

    The best HW to ever step in the octagon is a fat oaf who never saw a meal he didn't like.

    And Middleweight is bad.

    This is true. Middleweight is abysmal.

    Even though the HW title changed hands more often in the past. The competition is currently much better.

    The only thing that is abysmal is this post.

    But I suppose in two top heavy divisions, where one the mid level guys are talented guys like Mark Munoz, Rousimar Palhares, Hector Lombard, Stann, Leben, Lawler.

    That's worse than a division with 5 fighters then the likes of Kongo, Cro Cop and Pedro Rizzo. :atu:

    The only thing "worse" about Middleweight is that the talent is more dispersed amongst several organizations.


    Also, gotta love tight fights where both fighters have a combined 14 fights between them. :atu:

    Arlovski isn't really shot in the tradition sense. He's not worn out, or old and his skills haven't eroded. He just simply can't take it on the chin. He was looking pretty good in his last fight, until his chin got touched.

    I honestly don't know how anyone can argue to keep Brock ranked in the Top 5. Sometimes you just have to watch the fights. Brock looked so inept standing with both Carwin and Velasquez that he really exposed himself as a very limited fighter.

    And remember, Shane and Cain were the first good strikers Brock has fought. And that poor reaction to punches is a difficult thing to change. But until we see it improve, there is no way Lesnar is a top 5 HW on the planet.

    Something tells me fanboy will continue to rank Brock highly even if JDS walks through him.

    I don't think anyone can not find it hilarious that you say Overeem is the most overrated fighter there is on a consistent basis and yet rank him in your top 5, which is actually higher than almost any MMA publication has him. The consensus being around 7 or 8.

    You are hilariously inconsistent. :atu:

    Bigfoot, in his entire MMA career, has never come close to looking as helpless and afraid as Lesnar did against both Cain and Shane. That cannot be debated and I know it hurts.

    Too bad he beat Carwin. Who's a top 8 guy.

    And he wasn't nearly knocked out by a 30-35 ranked LHW on short notice...

    The only thing that can't be debated is your moronic attempts to take credit from a fighter for a fight he won.

    No, I think I clearly said I had issues putting Overeem in my Top 5 but I am starting to change my mind on him. There really isn't anyone else that is on a better streak aside from Cain and JDS.

    However you ranking him at 1 is overrating him.

    Says the idiot discrediting Bigfoot for a fight he WON...

    And as I said, Brock looked far worse beating Carwin than Bigfoot EVER has.

    Miguel Cotto was obliterated by Manny Pacquiao. Clearly a shit fighter.

    He lost much worse to Pacquiao than Malignaggi lost to Khan.

    Malignaggi > Cotto.

    Clearly.

    I'm with Newbraski. It was a pretty stupid comparison.

    If you are that fucking illiterate, the University of Phoenix's door is always open.

    The University of Phoenix specializes more in post graduate degrees such as a Master's. The working professional is more their niche. Literacy would probably be more the local JC. I'm just sayin:partie:

    Just for the record, our resident teenage dumbfuck altered my quote in his post.

    And I think his need to do that says everything.

    You can repeat it all you want, it's still irrelevant.

    It really is so completely irrelevant. All you need to do is watch how afraid Brock is when punches start flying. It is beyond comparison to anything else I've seen at such a high level in MMA.

    It can't be debated because it's not about common opponents or how one guy looked against another. It's all about how completely afraid Brock was standing with Shane and Cain.
