Adesanya or Hendo - Who do you rank higher at MW all-time?

[Takes Two To Tango]

Two of the very best at that weight class.

Who do you rank higher?

 

[TeenageMutantLesnarTurtle]

Hendo ranks higher overall, but if we are talking purely what they did at MW, definitely Izzy.

 

[SuperAlly]

Lol

 

[Dreyga Hates You Sherbums]

I can’t believe this is a real question.

The answer is obviously Adesanya.

The man has eight title wins.

 

[Mr. Shickadance]

Hendo and it’s not even a question

 

[Takes Two To Tango]

I can’t believe this is a real question.

The answer is obviously Adesanya.

The man has eight title wins.

The results speak otherwise.

 

[Shaolin Alan]

Dan fought in 4 weight classes. Adesanya tried to move up once and lost.

I give Dangerous Dan the edge even at just MW

 

[Leinster Rugby]

Picked Hendo but either answer would be valid imo

 

[Davidjacksonjones]

Both are super talented but I got to go with the OG champ champ

 

[TeenageMutantLesnarTurtle]

The results speak otherwise.

Are you talking specifically about what they did at MW though, and MW as in 185lbs rather than Prides 205lb MW division?

 

[Chayanne]

Hendo, his opponents would be harder

 

[Natural Order]

Izzy at MW for sure, at least on paper.

But Hendo has the SIGNIFICANTLY more badass career with a lot more memorable fights and proven success across three weight classes. Hendo is a legend, Izzy isn't there (one is an alpha male, the other is a bit fruity and diva like)

Dan Henderson bless.

Just overall at the MW division. Combining UFC and Pride.

You can’t be serious. You don’t think Izzy is a legend?

This fourm is full of morons. Sherbums!!! All of them

 

[wufabufa]

Are we talking about who's done more in the middleweight division itself? Or which MW sized fighter has done more worth their career overall? Dan has had the more storied and impressive resume of wins. Adesanya has done more as a pure middleweight.

Christ no.

Edited once I re-read the thread title and OP.

At MW, Izzy ranks higher. All time, it’s Hendo, no question.
