When Fedor defeated Nog for a second time, he was considered God. BArnett has the chance to do it twice in 1 year.
I stared a thread about this yesterday.
Mirko has fought 4 times this year, only fighting 2 people in his weight class. Only 1 of them is in the top 10 (Barnett). Josh also went through a 15 mintue war with Nog earlier in the night.
Josh= Took out 3 top 10 HW's, along with Nastula (very dangerous HW), and a top 10 MW in Nakamura. He also has the chance to beat Nog for a second time in 1 year...7 total fights
Mirko=Beat 1 top 10 HW while having 4 total fights...Beat 2 at HW, one MW, and 1 WW...
There is no way I can justify giving Mirko the nod over Josh.
We're talking about the most impressive fighter of 2006...Not who do you like more, or who do you think would beat who.

Right on!
