Because, before the Sylvia fight, Fedor fans were saying that NOT LOSING kept him in his spot, no matter who he's fighting. But Silva fights decent comp, and is not losing...but people discredit him because of HOW he won

EDIT: I'm not a Fedor hater....I have Silva and Fedor equal right now. both have been extremely dominant against decent competition. Fedor may be slightly ahead by looking good in his last two wins.....but I still don't think he's really fought anybody. AA is as overrated as they come, Sylvia had already been beaten twice recently going into the fight.
Not Fedor's fault his organization died and he became a ronin.

Fedor has easily fought better competition throughout his career than Anderson so cut the bullshit. The only good argument you had was "Anderson's more impressive recent wins" but that argument holds no water anymore.



As for this:

That's because Fedor STILL hasn't lost. If Fedor had lost it would've been different. Obviously unimpressive win trumps loss. But impressive win stil trumps unimpressive win. As it is now, Fedor not only won more times and lost fewer times throughout his career, he also won his last two fights in impressive fashion against impressive competition. Anderson did not.

Suck it up.
