| There have been 3 men who have held titles in 2 different divisions in the UFC and Pride. Randy Couture, Dan Henderson and BJ Penn. Which of the 3 is the better all-time great? |

| BJ is only 32, he still has a chance to get into the conversation. I think both BJ and Hendo get another UFC title shot. | |

GSP will be for sure when he decides to move up |

| The Barbarian will be coming to get GSP by then LOL, actually that'd be a pretty interesting fight. | |

| I am sticking with the old man, in his prime, he would have beaten them both... | |

| Would Couture be able to survive Dan's shots ? I am not convinced. |

| Yes, because Hendo would have been licking the fence and eventually would have gotten clipped with an elbow. After that Randy would have smelt blood and that is when he works best... | |

You're forgetting the wrestling Dan has under his wing and his physical strength. He'd be able to reverse Randy and get away from the cage. |

| BJ is the better man as far as skill. He's more well rounded then the other two. | |

Thats true but the question is posed more toward who the greater two division champion. Considering Hendo won his belts against some of the toughest opponents out there and both within 14 months it's kind of a hands down thing. Randy is great and all but Dan probably would have beaten him even in Randy's prime given his skillset and power striking. | |

| Yeah if we're talking accomplishments it's pretty hard to argue against Hendo. | |
