how the hell is Anderson Silva considered the best p4p?? Irvin, Cote, Leites, C’mon! Overrated until he beats some above average fighters, (under 38yrs old-Hendo, Frankilin 2x yeah but still not that impressed)

Alves, Penn and Fitch compared to Leites, Cote and Irvin? GSP is P4P the best fighter in the world and I don’t think anybody can say otherwise

….“I think if we put Ray Mercer in the UFC, it might be the first death in the UFC.”

Yep, Ray has some real power. That with 4oz gloves would be stupid silly.

Anyone hear my freakout linked in that post? Cised for the freakout.

Dana has this 100% correct.

GSP #1 P4P Fighter In The World

Fedor #1 Heavyweight In The World

See, what I love about fighters like Fedor, GSP, Anderson Silva, Penn, Sanchez, Nick Diaz etc, is that they don’t care how they win a fight. They just win. Whatever it takes. Sub, KO, TKO, grinding it out. When I heard Alves say he was gonna KO GSP like a broken record he started to annoy me. I thought, maybe this is just to throw GSP off a little but no, he really was trying to go for a ko only. That sucks. Do you want a KO, Thiago? Or do you want that belt? That’s the feeling I get when I see Fedor/GSP/Diego fight. Whatever it takes strategy. Wish all these fighters had this mentality. Wand is one of my all time favs but he is and always be that type of fighter thats doesn’t get it either. Hopefully Thiago wises up if he ever gets a rematch.

If fedor hasn’t read the contract at least he can still hear this interview. That will motivate him to to be heavyweight for Dana White for sure.

If Lesnar left the UFC tomm. and went out and got KTFO by Bret Rodgers, Dana would tell us he always knew Brock was overrated.

No, Dana…I don’t remember when you hyped Arlovski as some unstoppable, unbeatable force that moved like a MW and had a cool fang mouthguard and wild hair. I don’t remember that at all.

Fedor fanatics have a tendency to over inflate Fedor’s opponents, and then the second Fedor’s get the W over them, completely denigrate them so that nobody else gets the glory of defeating them. We now know Arlovski didn’t belong anywhere near the main event scene in 2009, but if you had asked every Fedor fanatic out there about Arlovski before he fought Fedor, they would have told you he’s the solid number two MMA heavyweight fighter in the world and would spank all of the UFC heavyweights. Now that a fight with Fedor isn’t on the horizon, they have no reason to protect Arlovski and his plummet from the rankings is proof of that.

We’ve now seen Fedor’s last two opponents get whooped worse than Fedor whooped them by much less touted opponents. In hindsight, those were not that impressive wins and Fedor should have been fighting better fighters instead of 2006’s stars. Sylvia and Arlovski would still be heavily ranked if that was not the case. How much would a fighter jump up in the rankings if he were to defeat Arlovski and Sylvia consecutively at this time? One spot?

Fedor is obviously one of the best heavyweights of all time, because he hasn’t lost, but he obviously has not been constantly tested his entire career. (The fact that only his wins over Cro Cop, Nogueira, Herring and Coleman are brought up from his Japan run shows that it was not the unimaginable accomplishment his fanatics make it out to be). Hopefully he signs with an organization that can give him the competition he deserves. And hopefully MMA rankers will wise up if he runs off to Japan to fight middleweights and GIANTS and remove him from the rankings top spot.
