"He destroyed the Myth that was Fedor"

Cannot believe that Goldie dropped that on the live telecast and it is more unbelievable that Rogan was preaching it on the countdown.

It made me cry tears of anger.

And it is basically true. But I was telling you guys that for a while.

You have been wrong since a while. No myth = no myth destroyed. A loss is a loss.

GDP, almost everyone on this page was talking like he was this unbeatable figure. Talking shit about how guys careers were basically over once they fought Fedor. But while I agree he was the greatest HW fighter of all time, he went into decline living on his 'legend' for years collecting huge paychecks to fight guys who had no right to be fighting him.

So you call Fedor a myth and the greatest HW of all time in one sentence? Convincing angle.

He's right. He is the greatest HW of all time, and he was quite overrated for a few years. Other heavyweights were getting better, and he was fighting guys who weren't.

I think it was fine to call the legend of Fedor a myth because it was almost unreal how dominate this man was. I agree with Drew and Chorky on this 1 though he hasnt been fighting top competition for years and when he finally got back to fighting a guy who was border line top 10 in Werdum he lost. Fedor will probably go down as the most dominate mixed martial artist ever but he hasnt been that in years.

Fedor was not that far removed from KOing 2 top ten heavies(and im not including Rogers).

Yes he had some easy fights mixed in, but he was still fighting at as high a level as anyone.

Just not the competition in my mind.

Sylvia and AA were both very good wins.

Im shocked so many of you still believe 2010 propaganda aimed at casuals who dont know any better.. Fedor was only fighting top ten HWs who left the UFC on their terms. Frankie Edgar must have shattered the myth of BJ Penn since Jens, Joe Daddy, Kenflo and Diego have all left the division, the sport, and lost fights since. The premise is identical.

The power of the UFC brand is such that even though the UFC hw division left to go fight Fedor, Fedor still never fought nobody. Yall werent saying this back then, yall liked the fights when they went down like everyone else, but since have let White alter your take on reality. Punch self in nuts, hard. All of you.

LOL so much butthurt in this thread.

Well Josh, nearly all the fighters in your list regard Fedor as the best of all time.

I'm being serious you guys are crying over nothing. Just a comment. Actually a statement.

Pointing out blatant stupidity =/= crying.

If pointing out stupidity is crying I imagine josh's momma spent most of his childhood sobbing.

At least his didn't drop him on his head...again, and again, and again.

I thought Rogan was a Fedor fan? Even after the Bigfoot fight he was still talking about Fedor the same way..positive and he believed Fedor was the greatest HW of all time.

Goldie saying something asinine is normal.

Rogan probably meant the myth that Fedor is unbeatable. He's never been a Fedor basher
