Would prime Randy The Natural/Captain America Couture be a top 5 LHW today?

[BigMuffler]

Top 5/6:

C. Daniel Cormier
1. Alexander Gustafsson
2. Glover Teixeira
3. Jimi Manuwa
4. Mauricio Rua
5. Volkan Oezdemir

Where would The Natural rank among today's LHW elite?

He'd be similar to wehre Rumble was.

Loses to DC and Jones, beats everyone else

 

[PabloBassquez]

with or without USADA

 

[MRDOG]

You have current Shogun on your list of today's top 5 ...... Prime Randy beats today's Shogun easily.

In short ... Yes.

 

[BigMuffler]

with or without USADA

Well he is The Natural, so...

 

[Taric]

2017 ACL reconstruction Shogun and some Russian guy I've never heard of are top 5 today.
Forget Randy, young Tito Ortiz could be top 5 today.

 

[Tchernobog]

Easily top 5, would rank him below only JJ and DC

 

[Dionysian]

Glover #2, Manuwa #3. Man LHW is a sorry state of affairs nowadays.

 

[Gabe]

205 is crazy weak so yeah he'd probably beat everyone except Jones, DC, and maybe Gus.

Easily top 5, would rank him below only JJ and DC

Jones is irrelevant to this discussion. Not even a top 15 fighter

I would literally pick every UFC or PRIDE LHW champion of yesteryear to beat Jimi Manuwa.
Today's LHW is embarrassing.

Where would The Natural rank among today's LHW elite?

He probably would... if, of course, he would have benefited from the advances of technology that we have nowadays.

 

[Aerosol]

The Couture that destroyed Liddell and spanked Ortiz beats them all. Even Jones.

 

[TheChance]

2017 ACL reconstruction Shogun and some Russian guy I've never heard of are top 5 today.
Forget Randy, young Tito Ortiz could be top 5 today.

Let's not get crazy now

"Reconstructed Shogun" has a pretty good ring to it.

The SHOGUNATE will be RECONSTRUCTED!

 

[GSP_37]

Jones, Lyoto, Glover, Gus, AJ would wreck him.

The SHOGUNATE will be RECONSTRUCTED!

The Reconstructor could be a nickname for a fighter np

 

[andrew provost]

randys awesome clinch and dirty boxing would suck the life from almost all the top lhw, Dc with a similar skillset and Jones would be 50/50, but The Natural could def beat them all on his best day!
