I agree with those rankings too. What would Dana say if Fedor put on two performances like Anderson just did!

At the very least he'd call him a "useless can".

Eh, make that a "useless fucking can".

And that's the truth.

Of course he'll just continue to blatantly defend Anderson as P4P king as if nothing happened. Transparent PR bullshit.

What's better....

having 2 unimpressive fights against decent competition...

or going 3 years beating up horrible competition?

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.

What does Pride dieing have to do with the lack of competition from Fedor? He was fighting freak shows IN PRIDE. and once Pride died, he could have went to the UFC or fought any of the top HW's outside the UFC.

"throughout the career" doesn't count when talking about current rankings. I'll easily admit Fedor is ahead of Silva as far as GOAT goes. but looking at the last 3 or so years it's pretty equal.

A poll on a board where every P4P thread shows that most don't even know what it means doesn't say much. Then again it's not an important issue so I guess that doesn't matter.
