best submissions per division

[russelkeith]

so i was wondering who has the best submissions(not bjj) in each weight division in the ufc. my guess is:
hw: werdum
lhw: tex
mw: jacare
ww: maia
lw: jim miller
fw: idk
bw: barao/faber
flw: bagautinov
wbw: honda

any thoughts?

FW: Korean Zombie (dat twister shit)

good call plus iirc he submitted porier too

 

[Hanz_Blitz]

HW- Werdum
MW- Jacare
WW- Maia
LW- Diaz
Women- Ronda

LHW-? Maybe Tex, Jones or Davis?
FW- Not the slightest
BW- Possibly Barao but that's more of an unknown weight class

Who has Teixeira actually submitted?

As much as I hate him, you gotta go with that boy Jones at LHW.

Kingsbu with an arm triangle.

HW - Mir or Werdum
LHW - Jones, but Bader's guillotine on Vladdy was nice
MW - Souza
WW - Maia
LW - Miller or Cerrone
FW - KZ or Poirier
BW - Barao
FLY - Ali for his credentials, Joe-B/DJ for actually getting them.

LHW-Lil Nog

 

[Mendoza]

LW I'd have to say Aoki (if he's wearing his rainbow pants)

I think you have to swap Miller out for Diaz. I don't know what division you would put Penn in but would say he would be best in FW and LW. Maia is above him in WW.

 

[DizzyYeahYeah]

Diaz > Miller > Cerrone.

Why do you guys always put those 2 over Nate?

 

[Hylix]

Diaz > Miller > Cerrone.

Why do you guys always put those 2 over Nate?

Probably because Cerrone and Miller go for submissions and Nate rarely does anymore?

Good topic....completely debatable, mine are
Hw- josh barnett
Lhw- jones
Mw-jacare
Ww-pyle
Lw-lauzon
Fw-miller
Bw-renan
** hettes gets a mention at fw/ miller and darush at lw/maia and nelson at ww

 

[TStoner]

Don't know if you mean only current ufc roster or only subs that happened in Ufc fights. So, because I think it will be a bit more fun, I'll narrow it down to both.
HW- Murr
LHW - Jones
MW - Weidman
WW - Maia
LW - lauzon
FW - Penn
BW - Faber
FlW - ... I dunno. DJ?
WBW - RR

 

[Turtleguard]

HW: Werdum

LHW: Jones

MW: Weidman

WW: Maia

LW: Jim Miller or Nate Diaz I guess? Hard to say.

FW: KZ or Yahya? Hettes? Hioki?

BW: Faber

FW: Mighty Mouse

WMMA: Ronda

 

[Mendoza]

Aoki > Diaz

Pyle better than Maia?

 

[JKS]

Hw is really 4 guys....Mir, nog, Barnett and werdum and they all have their strengths

Lhw I am a going to say nogueira or teixera

Mw is jacare easy

Ww is Maia

Lw i like miller

If you are going back who has the best highlight reel of submission victories in MMA then Jones is probably the best at LHW.

On a side note, Tito has really underrated submissions. He doesn't show them a lot in MMA, but his 2000 ADCC run was really impressive.
