IF....if Whittaker beats Luke, his top 3 wins are better than Silva's top 3

[TripTictonic]

Wouldn't you say so?

Rockhold, Romero, Jacare v.s. Hendo, Franklin, Belfort?....Okami?

Middleweight is a different game these days. Yes, flame away Anderson nuthuggers.

WAR Bobby Knuckles

 

[sirmorbach]

Absofuckinglutely.

 

[nanika]

consistency is a trait in itself

 

[ElCasca]

Better than GSP's as well

no need to flame. You yourself mentioned it.
MMA evolves.
At that time, whittaker would not have the training he has now.
Anderson ruled everyone for years.
Let us see if Whittaker can do it for as long...

 

[Th3Sav4ge]

none of them names are better than a win over dan henderson

 

[TripTictonic]

Nah. GSP still has the most impressive resume in the history of the sport.

 

[Perrichet]

Anderson was lucky he was fighting in a incredibly weak division before Weidman came along

Rockhold, Romero and Jacare vs Hughes, Penn and Fitch? lol
If you're disregarding Andy's defenses because of the evolution of the sport, then GSP's top wins also sound outdated and less impressive than those 3

 

[Kirin]

And he didn't have to 'roid to do it.

MW henderson is not even top ten all time. His best win at mw is who?

 

[Cozytoesflava]

Maybe if we are comparing Rockhold, Jacare, and Romero to current Franklin, Belfort, and Henderson. Hard to argue that the latter are not all time greats. We don't know if the first 3 are all time greats.

 

[originalbadguy]

Pretty much this! People don't want to admit it, but the 185 div was by far the weakest. Anderson was a dominant champ but in a terrible division.
He is also a cheater so not much more to say

What makes Rockhold or Jacare a better win than the then WW GOAT and LW champion?

GSP’s top wins are far better than Anderson’s anyway

 

[Fahrenheit1221]

Henderson is not a top 10 all time MW?

Get the fuck out of here with your delusions.

 

[Sonny Qc]

Better than GSP's as well

GSP got the most top 10 wins of any GOAT's

Well first of all, we are comparing MWs. So what does GSP have to do with this?Are you just saying that because you think Romero could kick Penn's ass? Lol. Then of course you have prime Condit, prime Shields (coming off a win over Hendo at MW), prime pre USADA Alves. Hell even before Nick got dominated, he was the Strikeforce champ and on a 5 year unbeaten streak before losing a close decision to Condit. It's really hard to say who his 3 best wins are. All of those names mentioned are top 10 WW all time except for probably Alves. P4P best resume out there. Sorry.

 

[ElCasca]

What makes Rockhold or Jacare a better win than the then WW GOAT and LW champion?

But you agreed that those wins are better than Hendo (PRIDE double champ and one of the most legendary fighter of all time), Franklin ( P4P N 4 at the time).
But that doesn't count for Anderson right?

 

[Kirin]

Henderson is not a top 10 all time MW?

Get the fuck out of here with your delusions.

Then why didn't you answer the question? Who is hendong's best win at mw? The guy is severely overrated based on his accomplishments at lhw; at mw he is a fringe top 20. Got smoked versus virtually everyone of note he faced at 185.

 

[TripTictonic]

Henderson is not a top 10 all time MW?

Get the fuck out of here with your delusions.

Hendo is EASILY a top 10 LHW all time. His MW career is not ass impressive though.

 

[SavageAngel]

Henderson, Belfort and Franklin are pretty solid names. Add to that having wins over Sakurai in welterweight and Griffin in LHW. Not to mention 10 title defenses.
