Most skilled or well-rounded gatekeeper in the UFC

[BigMuffler]

Which fighter who is generally considered a gatekeeper (ie. not a serious threat to the title, and usually loses to elite guys but beats everyone else) do you think has the best overall skills?

Erik Silva? I spose arguably losing even the gatekeeper spot now.

 

[Clear Winner]

Neil Magny's pretty well rounded and skilled. Not sure if he's a gate keeper though.

Bisping might be another if he loses his next fight.

 

[BigMuffler]

Erik Silva?

That's a prospect, he can never be a gatekeeper.

 

[Frank McEdgar]

Donald Cerrone is the ultimate gatekeeper

 

[Philtard]

Vitor nowadays.
Bisping was also a good gatekeeper at one point.

Honestly it depends at what point in their career they are at.

 

[trident]

Matt Brown

 

[BoD 2.0]

Maybe Nate

 

[BTard]

Inb4 @JackSchtotll says GSP.

 

[Tugboat]

Chris Lytle used to be like that.

Now maybe Cowboy Cerrone. Serious skills both standing and on the ground. Still no title:

Cerrone gets my vote

 

[Bboy]

Keith Jardine

The Original Gatekeeper

 

[KTMshredsall]

Michael Johnson is the UFC's #1 gate keeper

 

[Lumberjacks]

Lauzon is pretty welrounded gatekeeper. And if not, atleast usually one of the more exiting gatekeepers.

 

[Kertol]

People are ignoring the question. It says most well-rounded gatekeeper

Clay Guida used to be

Roy Nelson too if he was still in the UFC. Very Well-rounded.

 

[qw3rty]

Donald Cerrone is the ultimate gatekeeper

I agree, guy is really well rounded except for his mentality

 

[heatbag]

Jake Ellenberger had the tools to be so much more, fight iq is not to be undervalued.

Erik Silva? I spose arguably losing even the gatekeeper spot now.

Erik more of a Journeyman
