Yeah because Randy had so much success against high level strikers.
Rizzo
Chuck
Belfort
All 10x the striker Manuwa is. Rizzo in his prime would be a top 10 HW today.

I have limited belief in continued MMA evolution after cross training became commonplace, sure there have been refinements to better manipulate the rules but the basic fighting techniques that come from boxing, kickboxing, muay thai, wrestling, BJJ etc. are pretty damn old to have suddenly improved significantly, the smaller refinements can't count for that much.
Yes, his MT is on point.But his Thai boxing is on another level so.........
I'm not completely sure what you're saying here, but I might be inclined to disagree considering Woodley (boxing+wrestling) beat out Wonderboy just now, Stipe and DC are also boxing+wrestling champs. The idea that lots of movement is now a GOAT style component seems like it was a fad.Previously, everyone thought that BJJ+Muay Thai was the GOAT style combo.
Boxing+Wrestling was once there too, now its all movement + specialized striking & grappling.

So your saying Tim beat two good fighters in his 41 fight career? Wow what a world beater! You are dumb kid. Try again.
Jones, DC, Rumble, and Gus would have molested the maine-iac.
I dunno how much that really counts for, Tim beat a prime Arlovski twice and how many of these guys would you favor over AA? I don't think I would favor that many, maybe just Jones, DC, Rumble. And then Sylvia has a much bigger size advantage than AA would.
