Canadian TKO better then Pride and ufc!(stat)

This thread is a response to another thread
21 win with 11 loses is what Canadian TKO fighter got into the ufc! Better then pride who stand at 20-13!

So now we know what is the best MMA org in the world, The debate is close and the TKO is the best......







NO! It doesnt mean shit right? So stfu before analyzing those stats a making stupid thread that you think are revelant!

Those fighter aswell as former pride fighter fought guy comming from other org and they were no longer pride fighter but ufc fighter that fought other ufc fighter!

Is it safe to say pride had great fighter, yes...But it is fucking stupid to say pride is better than ufc!

TKO does produce many great fighters. It is the reason that Canada has so many more good French Canadian fighters then from anywhere else in Canada.

Thanks for making everybody who analyses stats so much instead of enjoying the sport look stupid.

That is an interesting stat for sure.
We all know that MMA math doesnt work at all but it was still a good perspective.
The stats for Judokas can be used in a similar way to prove that they are the best on paper, but it doesnt go far to prove that they are the best when you compare them the who they would face at the top.

Outside of GSP, what other "great" Canadian fighters are you referring to?

That's like saying AAA baseball is better than the National League because some AAA players do very well when they get called up to the bigs, and some players already in the big leagues don't do so hot when they get traded from the NL to the AL.

Canada has tons of good fighters. Just because a fighter isn't in the UFC doesn't mean they aren't good. It's hard for many Canadian athletes to get recognized outside of Hockey. However they are there.

That's exactly his point.

He's trying to point out the lunacy of comparing Pride & the UFC based on how guys have performed since switching organizations. The TKO comparison is just an analogy to drive that point home.

Folks should just sit back and enjoy the fights rather than worrying about whether a dead promotion had better fighters than the promotion who bought them.
