Its been like a decade that we Brazilians dont have any new great LHW.

[CereserBr]

I think Machida was the last one... Glover comes close, but he got to the UFC kinda late.

You have guys like Barroso and Frankenstein, but they are not elite...

Lil Nog always plagued with injuries...

Damn, i miss those ChuteBoxe guys: Wand, Ninja and Shogun

Brazil still producing great MWs and HWs though... But missing the LHWs

 

[Breakfast Bar]

Paulo Costa could be the next Great Brazilian LHW, but he decided that he’d rather cut 40 pounds.

 

[Katsumi Yamada]

It's been nearly 10 years since ANYONE produced a new great LHW

 

[TheAmericanGazelle]

Thankfully, Shogun is poised to make his 15th comeback for the belt.

Right, OP?

Wait till Erick Silva hits puberty and fills out. That kid is the future

 

[ShreddinMMA]

To be fair, Wanderlei and Shogun have really been the only long standing Brazilian LHW greats.

There have been other quality Brazilian LHWs during that stretch. They just didn't get all time great status.

Wagner Prado will come back someday

Because all the poor underclass who become cage fighters have indio blood. Thats why you still see beasts like RDA, Aldo and Linecker but Wanderleis are rare.

USADA has been the thorn in the Brazilian LHW butt.

All these great Brazilian HW’s and LHW’s are now MW’s and WW’s.

 

[Kidney Punch]

Honestly, this is the one Sherdog meme that I'll probably never get tired of.

How can you say that when the goat cheater at LHW is american???



Or are you referring to Lyoto's 7KETO dhea suspension as the ultimate argument for this????

Yes Lyoto and the top quote in this post.

I wouldn’t get too excited about Usadinha *hint hint cough cough*

 

[Kung Fu bb]

Still the most incredible / matrix moment in mma.

 

[michi972]

Glover was a solid top 5 guy
