Randy: not the greatest but the oldest
I've had many great nights watching Randy fight and I've been moved by his displays of atheticism, intelligence and courage. Hats off to him. the man is a warrior. But let's face it. With a shaky 16-8 record, several losses to LHWs and no sustained dominion of any cathegory, Randy, despite the veneration of the American crowd, has scarcely any chance of being considered the greatest among the elite of HWs. But he is indeed the oldest. Congratulations grandpa! I'll think of your glorious carreer you every time I'm plagued by rheumatism!

Vitor!?? Randy handed Vitor his ass. You obviously didn't see the fight Vitor won against Randy.
If Fedor beats Tim and Randy beats Fedor, Randy has a claim at top 5 all time heavyweight status.
If he loses to Fedor, well, he will be remembered as a kind of George Foreman old man, but MMA style.

Why is his 16-8 record "shaky"?

Go back to boxing if you want undefeated, protected, corrupt records.
