| I'm curious to whom we all collectively think is Fedor's biggest threat, and it doesn't simply have to be a HW
Some guys I put on there just cause, if u pick other then post who the fighter is. | |

| Lesnar because the size and wrestling combo would be a tough match for him. | |

| I wanna say Silva but I feel like Fedor would get it to the ground and keep it there/finish the fight so I'll go with Machida. He just cannot be touched. | |

| I like Machida in this one with Brock a really close second and Spider third. Fedor has shown some weakness against smaller quick guys. Unlike with almost all other Fedor matchups, Machida would have a distinct speed advantage and with his amazing footwork and take down defense, he probably wouldn't have to spend time on his back. Loyoto by ghost-like elusiveness and draconian sorcery. Urine. It's all about drinkability. | |

| Gotta go Brock. Of the 3 most intersting challengers, Machida, Silva, and Brock, Lesnar is the only guy who would have both a big size adv. and an adv. on the ground vs Fedor. Fedor has both those adv's over the other 2. Typically it's pretty hard to overcome both of those advantages. | |

| Captain America would win the rematch, I said it the day after the 1st fight and still believe it. Randy will beat Brock if they fight again. | |

The question is "who vs Fedor?" But I think you're crazy, Brock is getting better, Randy is only getting older. | |

| I think the Spider would have a punchers chance, I think the Dragon would too, I believe that Randy would Jedi mind trick his ass. But Brock wins by taking him down and humping him to death! | |

| I must be missing something here. Why are so many picking Machida over the Spider? I feel like Anderson's a better striker and is as elusive as Machida. Am I wrong? | |

I mean for Christ Sake, certain individuals tried pumping up Hong Man Choi as a viable opponent Sooner. I do have him ranked first in his division, if that helps. | |

I use to hate on Fedor for not fighting legit guys all the time, just ask Bigs. When we first started talking MMA awhile back I would talk about his lack of recent competition until I was blue in the face. I would say things like, Yes he use to be the best, but you need to prove your the best on a regular basis, you have to prove you still deserve to be called the best. Since then Fedor has stepped up the competition for sure and shut my mouth in the process. I never said he wasn't the best I just wanted him to prove he deserves to stay on top. | |

Silva has the reach, height and power. They are both impossible to hit when they feel like it, so that may be a wash, but it's Machida's take down defense, and sumo that make me think he would match up better with Fedor. I think Fedor would be able to take down Silva down and hurt him, while Machida could keep the fight standing more easily. | |

You don't think he's all that, but you still think he's the best heavyweight in the world. | |

| First off, wow, 12 votes for Brock and more votes for Lyoto than Anderson. Also, the only fighters recieving votes so far are in the UFC. | |

| Brock, I'd love to see Anderson fight Fedor also, though.
As far as Machida...his body of work is nothing compared to those two guys. I need to see him dominate for awhile before I consider him a worthy opponent to Fedor. | |
