The Historical Significance of Brock at #1

So where would you put Cain if he won?

Cain goes to 2 or 3. I'd probably line up the UFC HW champ at 3, Fedor at 2, Werdum, the lineal MMA champion, aka "the man" at 1.

Brock's who have you beaten list would be better then Werdum's with Fedor by a lot IMO, I think Cain would fuck up Werdum let alone Brocky.

In reality Werdum isn't even the best HW in SF, I'd easily pick Fedor in a rematch, the new Reem, and Silva in a rematch.

Werdum would beat Silva but Fedor and Overeem destroy him in rematches. I think Cain is the future of the division but I hope not for a while yet.

Maybe, maybe not, but fair and square he beat the best HW of all time. So he is ranked 1 for me.

Silva was beating Werdum up until the point he broke his hand

Carwin was beating Lesnar until the point he went into lactic shock. Still got Lesnar ahead of Carwin. Works both ways men.

I think Carwin would beat Werdum..

But it's not about saying Silvaa should be ahead of Werdum, I'm saying I'm not gonna go crazy on Werdum at this point and think Silva would take him in a rematch. If you think Carwin would beat Brock, that's similar, but not huge deal to me cause I think Carwin is a beast too.

Werdum and Carwin is 50/50. Great chance Werdum gets flattened in the opening seconds, but there is also a good chance Werdum tires him out and rips an arm off. Again, unless you can prove otherwise, big muscles are not a defense against high level submission games.
