The fact that heavier fighters can beat smaller fighters is absolutely irrelevant in combat sports.
It's easy to make an argument that Tim Sylvia had done more to be ranked number 1 or 2 at the time that Fedor and Nogueira fought for the first time.

You sir, are absolutely wrong.
Pride put on the best shows in MMA history, far better than any show the UFC has ever put on.
WTF do you mean 'real weightclasses?'
Being heavier has nothing to do with skill. Who cares who the heavier fighter is?
Tim Sylvia never competed in a grand prix, much less won one. All of the heavyweights Tim Sylvia beat on his road to the championship weren't half the fighters Nog and Fedor faced on their way to the title.
