Not a Colby hater but Rory is a far superior striker than Maia

 

[Sosua]

GSP.

Of active ones, Woodley.

He's far better than when Rory deciosned him. Since that fight Rory has been beaten up a lot, loads of fight miles.

 

[ClipYourDirtyWings]

Woodley, is this serious?

 

[kickpuncher]

after Mousasi pretty much wiped the floor with Rory there is no debate - it's Woodley.

The Moose would put Woodley in the wood chipper and turn him to toilet paper to wipe his ass with.

What about RdA?

 

[yeguiza]

the hypocrisy of sherdog ..... if Woodley would have signed with Bellator and Rory would have been in the UFC, your answer would have been the reverse...shame...

mmm
no

really NO

just look at 100% of my posts about rory and you´ll understand

What about RdA?

What about him

 

[cyrusthevyrus]

Shields? Marquardt? Get over it. He couldn’t beat lawler twice. He got schooled by wonderboy. He got his ass beat by Lima. He got knocked out by mousasi. He’s not who you think he is.

tyron isn't doing better,,,

nobody has time for that ))))

 

[cyrusthevyrus]

None of the above. Ben Askren is #1

fuck , i forgot about him !!!!!!!!!

 

[MuayThaiRhino]

Rory.

Not sure what Moose-Rory has to do with welterweight, but Woodley is still the answer.

Mousasi would beat Woodley too and probably any WW that fought him at MW.

Mousasi was his only chance to do something significant to put him back in "who's best" discussion.

 

[NoBiasJustMMA]

no losing like that proves your best days are behind you

No it doesn't, Mousasi is better than Rory at everything(striking, sub grappling, wrestling considering the size/strength difference) and has a similar style so Rory had no advantage.

That's what happens when you have two guys with similar styles and one is bigger/hits harder and is just better at that style.

 

[Trillz]

if your talking about right now its probably woodley, Usman if he beats him

i'm not sure about that. size difference won't be that big and Woodley has good wrestling. i think it would have been competitive.

 

[MuyThaiElbows]

It's only debatable between Woodley and Rory.

I'd love to see the rematch right now.
