Nog is awesome, hard to find anything wrong on his resume, but if you want to nitpick you could say he struggled to find any offense vs Fedor, got a gift from the judges against Ricco, and got pretty lucky against Cro Cop cause he was saved by the bell when he was in deep trouble in round one. Overall though he's probably right there in the top 2 or 3 ever, and man he can take punishment and keep coming back!

I have enjoyed mma since long before ufc and I say that Nog is my finest in respect of a fighter.

This guy took on Sapp when no one else wanted to.

This guy took on CC when no one else would.

He is class.

Yup.

Randy has plenty to focus on Fedor. Fedors focus is on plenty.

I respect Randy but in the big picture....

Nog has been beating top competition for years, consistently. I'm not sure Couture deserves this high praise, insofar as HW rankings is concerned.
No disrespect to Randy, but how is beating someone (Sylvia) that has less skills than you historical? Randy is one of the greats of all time for sure, but not #1.
