Fedor's top 10 notable wins:
1. Cro Cop - dominant victory over PRIDE/UFC and K-1 legend.
2. 2x Minotauro - dominant victories over PRIDE and UFC champ.
4. Sylvia - Fedor's best performance in my opinion over huge guy and former UFC champ.
5. Arlovski - another former champ, brutal KO.
6. Hunt - Hunt was one dimensional (he's still..), but Hunt is K-1 legend and big and strong guy.
7. Brett Rogers - dangerous guy at the time, similar to Derrick Lewis.
8. 2x Coleman - former champ, Fedor tapped him twice, Coleman was very good wrestler.
10. Randleman - another former champ.

Werdum's top 10 notable wins:
1. Cain - submission victory after very dominant performance over two times UFC champ
2. Fedor - quick submission victory over undefeated in 10 years legend.
3. Hunt - he KOed K-1 champ.
4. Bigfoot - close decision victory over huge TRT Silva.
5. Minotauro - he tapped one of the best grappler in HW division, PRIDE/UFC champ. They had very close fight in PRIDE when Antonio was in his prime and Fabricio wasnt.
6. 2x Browne - he dominated Browne twice especially first time when Travis was HW contender.
8. Nelson - dominant victory over long time UFC gatekeeper.
9. Gonzaga - he finished him twice. Gonzaga was good HW at the time.
10. LHwReem - Reem was always top fighter even as as LHW, even UberReem at Strikeforce had problems with Werdum.

Werdum has more losses, but he fought with better competition and he fought longer (he's still fighting with the bests-Reem) with top fighters. He choose UFC over Rizin/Bellator. Fedor fought with lot of cans and after Werdum fight his performances are worse than average.
 
He's not as consistent as fedor was in the 2000's, but his resume of victims is more impressive
 
During Fedor's reign, Werdum was also fighting in Pride. At the time, nobody was saying Werdum should be next to fight Fedor. At that point, Fedor was the supreme ruler, and Werdum at best lost to Nogueira, who was also leagues above everybody else.

Werdum got better, and he eventually beat Fedor after he was tired of winning. Put it in perspective.

But Fedor has like 22-23 quality wins and thats more than Werdum who has 15-16.

You can't igonre quality wins: Fontes Braga, Erikson, Zentsov, Vera, Alex Emilianenko for Werdum,
but you can't also ignore: Sobral, Schilt, Herring, Fujita, Ogawa, Koshaka, Goodridge, Linlad, Monson, Ishii, Rizzo, Arona for Fedor;
and that's where Fedor has advantage, specialy over guys like Cain with only 8-9 quality wins in career.
 
Arona should've won this fight in my opinion btw.
