He's been training with Brock's camp though and wants another shot. |

| Wolf isn't man enough to carry my fucking waterbottle, so in that sense it would be like Yoda vs. a newly formed maggot in the trash bin. Also Wolf's comments about how the "UFC" guys haven't fought anybody? Who the fuck has been stepping into the cage's I wonder? Oh you mean guys hand picked by you as acceptable fighters. CC did get KTFO by Gonzaga as did Werdum, the guy who beat Fedor in under 2 minutes, by JDS. Mir and Cain both beat a declining Nog, but he was never anybody either I guess? Please, for someone who calls everyone out for their "assbabble" you sure have a lot of it.
Oh and FYI, thank you for letting me know my chair smells just like your Mom's dick. Now I know. | |

| But he hasn't shown any declines as a fighter, other than the Werdum loss has, to the point single handledly ended the careers of two UFC champions. | |

| Former champions one and two, wasn't Sylvia's reputation pretty much tarnished after an old man came out of retirement and beat his ass? AA has always had a questionable chin, has he not? In addition, you yourself have stated that at the time those 2 UFC Champions were Champs, the UFC has a very weak HW Division, which I would agree with. Once you have stripped away the manufactured glory of AA and TS, who are the other awesome opponents for the last 5 years? Grim? HMC? MW Matt Lindland? Mark Hunt? Mark Coleman? He fought at best at the time a barely top 10 Werdum and was subbed in under 2 minutes. He hasn't had any real fights against real dangerous competition since 2005. Look I think the guy deserves to be in the MMA HOF, but I don't give props to a guy ducking real competition for 5 years a lot of weight. I want you to quit thinking back like 5 years ago is the same as it is today, it isn't! The only thing that hasn't really changed in MMA in almost 15 years is Randy Couture and I love the guy, but he isn't top 10 in his weight class right now, at least we still consider your guy. | |

| blah blah blah blah, so then Brock's win over Couture is taken away, subtracting the only good win off his record. Mir is a wash. Carwin was unproven and only lost because cardio collapse. etc.
It goes both ways. The only fighters that really are proven are Fedor, Werdum, Barnett, and Dos Santos under the logic here. Cain looks to be as good as any of those guys though. Cain/Dos Santos are the only fighters in the UFC who will ever make a legitimate claim as best in the world in my mind, unless Carwin shows a drastic improvement in his cardio or Lesnar shows drastic improvement in every single aspect of his horrible MMA game. | |

| I have to say that when Sylvia lost to Fedor he was top 10 and Arlovski was number 2 when he got KO'd by Fedor. |

yeah Andrew likes to discredit the AA win, yet AA KO'd Nelson and Rothwell just prior to fighting Fedor. And just recently Nelson was one win away from a UFC title shot, while Rothwell is still one of the best wins on Cain's resume. | |

| Never mind. This is like arguing wih a brickwall that doesn't realize it is crumbling. Enjoy Josh, I am sure he has an excellent masking agent to deal the roids. Enjoy Fabricio, I do wish he was in the UFC. Enjoy Fedor/M-1/Vadim, I wouldn't be shocked if they call out someone who doesn't have plans yet...eventually. Knowing them, they will probably call out Christine Santos. | |

as if the UFC champ with his grand total of 5 wins, wasn't also busted with some sort of growth hormone. but at least he fights other roiders and the best 47 yr old dudes in MMA. | |

Well if it wasn't illegal at the time then he did nothing wrong. Also, how long ago was that? 10 years or so? |

| Fuck it this argument is old! We all declare that Grim is the 3rd greatest HW of all time, therefore validating Wolf's existence and Fedor's great comeback from that awesome fighter with the best BJJ/Grappling/striking/clinch game in the history of MMA. All Hail Brett Rogers. Now if everybody agrees, we can call up Sherdog and order them to make Fedor #1 again, because Werdum cheated by actually knowing what the fuck he was doing in a fight. | |

Andrew u r the King of attributing ridiculous arguments to people who do not say anything that resembles that argument. But if your comfortable with a dude with 5 wins as the best heavy on the planet, then that is cool. | |

| I am fine with it. If that is your whole fucking argument. I mean he has not been fighting Over-the-hill-middleweights (Lindland), oversized Koreans (HMC), nobodies from nowhere (Grim), and 2 former UFC Champions from the days when the UFC didn't have a legit HW Division (AA & TS). No Randy isn't young, but can anybody on this board tell me a time when Randy was young in this sport? He is still one of the best. Mir is a former Champ from the weak old days, but he is an ever evolving fighter and a solid gatekeeper. Carwin isn't young either, but he doesn't have the wear-and-tear, plus he is arguably the most powerful striker in MMA. Heath Herring, while not the greatest is certainly one of the toughest fighters I have ever seen, fucking miss that guy. So while his resume is not as long, over the last few years, it is certainly more impressive than Fedor's or Grim's or any other HW in SF. | |

So what do we have there Andrew, a super old Randy, a weak chinned champ from the not so glory days in Mir, and a nobody from nowhere in Carwin. That is Brock's career. It's actually somewhat similar to Fedor's recent opponents. Only difference is Fedor had 25 wins b4 the recent stretch. | |
