GSP and silva cleaned their division? So let me get this straight. Fedor hasnt cleaned his division, because he hasnt fought guys in the UFC. GSP and Silva have cleaned their division, even though they havent fought guys outside the UFC?
Did TLC really say that Griffin, Franklin, Marquardt, and Maia are better than a prime Mirko Cro Cop? Again, for the 852nd time, just name all the fighter Fedor has avoided over the last 6 years.. Waiting.................
REED Thinks he's Starting to "Get" Fedor a Bit... Even NOW, it's Hard to NOT Underestimate him, Based on APPEARANCE, but from Fedor's Perspective, it's NATHAN for him to Take those Extra RISKS that a So-Called "Pretty Boy" or "Body Beautiful" WOULDN'T Take...It's like he PURPOSELY Looks "Average" @ Best, so as NOT to Attach Himself to Any Semblance of PRESERVING his "Looks"....Enter the PUDGY Build, RECEDING Hairline, ROBOTIC Stare & PANTIES... Fedor's ALOT QUICKER than Your Eye's would LEAD U into Believing....He's STRONGER than he Looks, Hits HARDER than he Looks like he Should, etc...There just Seems to B Something EXTRA in EVERYTHING Fedor Does....His Submissions R Attempted QUICKER than Most, he BENDS Limbs Back Fuuuuurther than Most, he SLAMS his Foes HARDER than Most, his Punches AFFECT his Opponents MORE than Most & he's Willing to ABSORB MORE than Most... & All the While, the Motherfucker Never EVER Changes his Expression... All REED Can Say is WOW!!!...Simply Put, WHENEVER Fedor Fights, We're Witnessing an ARTIST on Display.... REED:bears:
The key to fedor's success is his ability to be calm. It so hard to do. Most people cant stay calm a fight. He does.
Pitiful, you aren't even trying at this point. The most pathetic thing I can think of is when people know how terrible their arguments are and say them anyway because they don't have one. GSP and SIlva have cleaned out their division because they have already beaten nearly everyone in the consensus top 10. Fedor hasn't beaten any of them with the exception of Nog 5 years ago. And please spare alll of the bullshit and pretend we aren't aware that that ZUFFA has by far the best fighters in the world. It's not even debatable. GSP is fighting a fighter he already beat, because there are no contenders left for him to fight, thats the extent of how he's cleaned his division. Outside of the UFC, the DREAM champion is a joke and a fraud, Im not even aware of the current Sengoku champion, and Strikeforce's champion is a UFC castoff and a fighter who's likely not even the best WW in his org if you count the soon-departing Shields. The only fighter that GSP hasn't fought outside the org that's worth a damn is Shields and that fight will soon be haooening because SHields realizes the obvious fact that the UFC is easily the top org in the world. SF is pathetic, really. A catchweight number one contender bout? WTF is that? Silva has beaten everyone worth a dam outside of the UFC PERIOD. SF doesn't even have a middleweight champion, their middleweight champion was a blown up welterweight who's leaving for the UFC and returning to his normal weight, DREAM doesn't have a middleweight champion, their middleweight champion is not a LHW who was embarrassed by a pathetic showing in Strikeforce. And Sengoku's champion is Jorge Santiago, a fighter wh WAS in the UFC, and was blasted out by Chris fucking Leben, who as we all know, lost within a minute to the Spider. Fail less.
TLC hate for Fedor is sooooooo!! strong ,any type of logic you throw at him will go straight though his ears . I think its funny
AgREED. I think the main thing is his unique blend of Speed, power and explosiveness. All of this bundled up in a chubby, little unassuming body. Although he does have great technique, I think his success is mainly attributed to these qualities stated above, as well his calm under pressure, and willingness to throw caution into the wind. His year round insane training regiment doesnt hurt either I guess.
TLC comes up with some pretty good posts at times, but its stuff like this that makes you realize how clueless about the sport he really is.
Clueless because I don't agree that a fighter who's resume is nearly devoid of current top 10 talent by any serious publication is the best on the world compared to someone like say GSP. We must have two different ideas on competion and the concept of greatness.
I went to a few MMA sites to look at their rankings. In every Rankings, Fedor has either defeated 1 or 2 people in the top ten. most of these list are also from Feb. There are a few names arent on the list that were top ten when fedor beat them. Like Arlovski. Fedor has beaten arlovski, Rogers, Nog, cro-cop. He has beaten all of these people when they were in the top ten. mmafighting.com Fedor Brock Mir Carwin Cain Alistair Santos Rogers Nog Werdum Sportsuntapped.com 10. Fabricio Werdum, Strikeforce 9. Shane Carwin, UFC 8. Alistair Overeem, DREAM, Strikeforce, K-1 9. Brett Rogers, Strikeforce 6. Cain Velasquez, UFC 5. Junior Dos Santos, UFC 4. Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira, UFC 3. Frank Mir, UFC 2. Brock Lesnar, UFC 1. Fedor Emelianenko, M-1, Strikeforce Sherdog.com Fedor Brock Cain Carwin Mir Santos Nog Rogers Arkovski Werdum Fightmatrix.com Fedor Brock Carwin velasquez santos Mir Nog Overeem Barnett werdum
Lesner vs. Carwin is more significant IMO. But that doesnt change the fact that Fedor is the best PFP fighter in the world and the greatest MMA fighter that has ever lived.
1 + 2 =/= good. Which is exactly my point. GSP and Silva, it's more like 5 or 6 or even 7. And a couple of P4P matchups like Penn and Griffin respectively. Also one of the two is from 5 or 6 years ago, and Nog is shot and will be departing soon. And yes Joe, the Sportsuntapepd list is a joke and horribly outdated. First off all, Rogers never in his life was better or more accomplished than Carwin. And Sherdog's list still has AA on it....-_-
You are in a very select group of cult Fedor sack riders. Congrats. No one else who follows the sport thinks so.
Matter of fact, I think GF purposefully went to outdated sites just because any reputable website has Rogers outside the top 10 now(which he never should've been in) and now he's left with one win over Nog..um 6 years ago. As I was saying.
Yes, you must have a different idea than the rest of entire forum and most likely 95% of MMA fans everywhere. But hey opinions are like assholes right? Everyone has one.
Honestly, MMA rankings are so subjective. Fighters get dropped too quickly with recent losses. It happens in boxing too but not as bad.

No. I think only this forum of like 7 people is the only one I post on full of such love for the fraud. I wouldn't even put the number at 50% of MMA fans who consider him the best fighter. Some don't even consider him the best HW.
Not really. Maybe after back to back losses. For example, BJ is number two on most people's lists. Mir is still in the top 10. Hardy only dropped to 5(and it wasn't like he was a consensus number 2 anyway).....Rogers in particular dropped out the top 10 because he is shit. And AA is shot. Mousasi dropped too much for my liking though, but he fought like shit so I can't blame anyone.
