Would Josh beat any UFC Heavyweight?

If were honest with ourselves, how many of us ever placed Josh Barnett's name among the worlds best 4 or 5 heavyweights when discussing MMA? Well, now I dont think thats a stretch any more... So the inevitable questions re Barnett vs Any ufc HW are bound to arise.. Ill just be the first to ask it.. Dont skewer me too badly..Im damn pleased to see how well Josh did tonight, and the question after that display just seems kind of natural... He was damned impressive, and had he not been poked in the eye, or suffered one hell of a first round match, the result might have even been different, unthinkable as it once may have seemed..

YES, that was an amazing performance in the Nog fight, if that fight didnt go to distance, Josh would of put up a better fight against Mirko

He could beat any UFC heavyweight, but that's a lot different than saying he would.

CroCop would, though.

AA has as good of a punchers chance as any, and I don't think Barnett would lose to Sylvia but I wouldn't look at it as some huge suprise if he did.

Franklin would beat any top middleweight... check the mma rankings.. numer uno, bitch!.. and dennis kang will be the one to beat franklin not hendo.

Sylvia says he has trained with barnett and would beat him but thats being sylvia... i see barnett beating any ufc heavyweight, but i think sylvia would gie him the most trouble, he is soo awkward to fight.
