Shavkats Favorite Two Fighters of All-Time.

It's not surprising. He's from the same general region as Fedor. He was Khabib's favorite fighter as well.
 
It's his opinion, just because he loves pride doesn't mean we have to worship old farts or attack him for his opinion.
You are probably like, ''Shavkat loves prides just like me! Highlight of my life i'm so proud of myself for loving same organization with my favorite fighters!''

No they won't. They'll say he's not a literal god. That he was an extremely talented elite fighter but not this fantastical beast that would easily demolish any fighter throughout history with ease. They think that certain fighters would have given Fedor problems. Yes, even in his prime.

That's what amounts to hating in the eyes of Fedor zealots.

Fedor is the greatest HW ever and easily in in the top 3 greatest P4P fighters of all time. This man fought 23 fights from 2000-2004 and won 18 straight fights after winning the world HW title- which today would be equivalent to 18 title defenses. He was ranked #1 the HW division for 7 years and was ranked #1 P4P for 4-5 years. He beat the best HWs of his generation in their prime and at their best and is still knocking out top 15 HWs today at the age of 45.

No one ever did it quite like him with no gimmicks and modern day mass makreting hype machines. He had an aura unlike anything this sport had ever seen and I reckon if the timing was different and his run happened to go down in the UFC in the Instagram era he would have been celebrated as the greatest legacy fighter ever.

Instead his run went down in Pride which died, before the Instagram era and his achievements and success we're constantly smeared and discredited by the UFC marketing machine.

First he was ducking Arlovski and Sylvia. Then he was ducking Randy and Brock. Then it was Cain and JDS etc. They put him up against a new unbeatable enemy each time he won: "time" and sooner or later hed lose and they would define him by that which was expected. It's too bad, he was Babe Ruth like.

And yea there are HWs today who would give him problems. Prime DC, prime Cain and possibly the recent version of Ngannou who is more patient and put in real time into becoming a better grappler. With that said Fedor at his very best IMO was still better than anyone Ngannou has ever fought.

18 title defenses gtfoh. Some of those fights were against literal cans. Pro wrestlers without any pro fight experience. Lemme know when a UFC champ fights a 0-1 Yuji Nagata or whatever the modern day equivalent is.

Very strange post. Seems like a short circuit.
