Haha how many of this so called unbiased poll would even know who fedor is? So espn puts up a poll to mostly semi casual, ufc educated mma fans and it somehow makes it unbiased ?

I'd imagine.

Back then I was a lurker on here, and did my posting under the same name on ADCOMBAT, which is now defunct.

Fail.

Fedor was ranked #2 on the poll.

The voters were well aware of Fedor and chose to put him at #2.

The question is where does Fedor go on this list if he beats Andrei Arlovski.

Beating guys like this and being so dominant for years should make Fedor number 1 on p4p in the near future.

Nog- 2 times
Tim Sylvia
Cro Cop
Andrei Arlovski

All top 5 heavyweights when Fedor fought them.

Seriously, do the people who make Sherdog rankings even watch MMA? I could do better pulling names out of a hat.

Anderson Silva has only beaten 2 top ten fighters...Franklin and Henderson...one could argue Marquardt being the third...so come on...how is he above Fedor and GSP? Soooo retarded that even the Sherdog staff falls pray to the UFC hype machine too. It harms their cred.
And Forrest? He's one of my favourite fighters but c'mon! He's not a top P4P guy, neither is Rampage.
