Ducked the UFC and the top opponents in the world his entire career. Of his four losses only one was to a UFC champ. Lost to Henderson who also didn't successfully translate well to the UFC from Pride proving he may very well of had a lot of trouble.

Three straight losses at any point in your career is also very ugly. Bigfoot Silva and Koshaka are both bad losses to guys who beat him by a finish. 3/4 losses came to guys with 10 or more losses, 2/4 to guys with over 15.

Every single fight he lost was a finish, Fedor never had the ability to bang to a decision loss and instead folded under pressure. For a guy with 41 pro fights considering one of the all time greats he has very few notable wins. Cro Crop, Big Nog, Arvlowski... and a lot of cans....

It's a crime to put him in the same sentence as GSP or McGregor.
 
why u making fedor threads in a UFC discussion area?



EDIT:
Aww just read your post and see you are trolling... well done

He is not the GOAT IMO. He had to fight in the UFC to make that claim. Not that he says it, but his fans sure do. Great run in Pride but spotty at best post Pride. His MGT had all kinds of bad excuses why he would not sign with the UFC. Went to SF supposedly in his prime, and got starched. Top 5 all time IMO..
 
McGregor knows all about losing to cans

Loss to Artemij Sitenkov, Nate Diaz and Joe Duffy lol

McGregor isn't even the GOAT Irish fighter in the UFC
 
Maybe it has something to do with the fact that he beat everyone for a decade, and ruled Pride when their HW division was better than UFCs. In that span, he was the best. McGregor doesn't belong in any GOAT lists, except maybe for shit talking.

fucking lol, Someone's never seen the fight,

or heard of Rings' rules
 
No. Him and GSP have about tied the resume for the GOAT. I give the edge to Fedor because almost all his opponents were much bigger than him.
 
The OP is a pile of dogshit.

He dominated the best division of heavyweights in MMA History during the time he was in Pride. It was so good, that a decade later, some of the fighters are still relevant today.
He beat Mark Hunt 10 years ago, and Hunt is still a top 10 UFC HW lol
He beat Arlovski 7 years ago, and Arlovski is still a top UFC HW lol
He beat Nogueira when Big Nog was the #1 HW in the world.
He beat Tim Sylvia in like 30 seconds, a year after Couture beat him (and this is looked at as Couture's best win in his career, but not even considered as a good win for Fedor)
He beat Crocop, in Crocop's prime, when he was considered the 2nd best HW in the world.
He went unbeaten for close to 9 years AT HEAVYWEIGHT. Which is unheard of in that division. It's hard to go a few years unbeaten at HW.
He has wins over 5 former UFC Champs (Coleman, Randleman, Nog, Sylvia and Arlovski).

No, he isn't he most OVERrated. He is the most UNDERrated.

Guys who didn't fight in Pride have no claim to being goat.
 
The people who watched him fight know that Fedor isn't overrated he earned the title of goat.

The title of most overrated fighter of all time belongs to colon mcgregor
 
Personally I don't consider Fedor the GOAT (though he's certainly up there in the top 3-5), and he's probably a little bit overrated. But you still can't deny his record and what he did in Pride.

For a guy with 41 pro fights considering one of the all time greats he has very few notable wins. Cro Crop, Big Nog, Arvlowski... and a lot of cans....

The problem with this statement is that you're obviously pretty new to the MMA scene, so you take a look at his record and pick out the names you recognize today. You don't have a clue about some of the other fighters that were Beasts in those days, but aren't really talked about today.

And I'm gonna assume you're just joking around with that McGregor thing.
