I can't stand when people say Ronda has the best armbar in the sport.
Fedor was a armbarring ufc champs, bears, and God when Ronda was still on Pok
 
Fedor's opponents were usually bigger than him so there's that, Rhonda's sexier while doing it soooooo...... I call it a draw.
 
fedor had such a great armbar. he had great armbars over coleman 2x, lindland, HMC, and ogawa. I believe he had a beautiful attempt against semmy, too.

I do think ronda's armbar is better, but she's a female (even the absence of junk helps) who weighs 135 lbs. if she weighed 230, i'm not so sure she could move like fedor.

Lol
under the right circumstances
 
Obviously Fedor. Work class means two different things in male and female divisions.

wow. just wow.

You do realize that not all belly down armbars are Russian armbars right?

The only "russian armbar" fedor even hit in his career was against Matt Lindland.

You should probably stop using terms you don't understand.

I actually knew that, believe it or not. I misspoke. it happens (rarely), and I own it. i didn't count on the EndlessCritic showing up lol that's worthy of a "wow. just wow," huh? think about the words you're using here on this casual forum. was that really worthy of a "wow, just wow," or did you maybe exaggerate a bit?

I'm not trying to be petty, but I really do hear a whiny girly voice when i read those words. you sound like a bratty 16 yr old girl whose mom just asked her if she wanted to chaperone her little brother and his friend at the mall. "Really, mom? Really? Wow, just wow." that's you lol that's what you sound like. I really never thought i'd be one of these assholes to take this road on a Sherdog forum, but you need to get laid. you seem uptight, and it might shake that overzealous confrontational energy out of your system.

I've seen you bitch at many other sherdoggers for the past 20 months; you're a rude elitist. you're not unique; you're a type, like it or not. you have a desperate need for respect, which means you probably don't get much in life (or maybe you were deprived of respect during your childhood... I don't know.) i correct people everyday; i do it respectfully. that respect is often reciprocated in their responses. if i'm ever a dick, i own it and apologize. this is the paragraph that offers what little respect is due. i owe you no more , because I've seen you around and you're consistently very rude.

i know what a Russian armbar is, okay? half of those armbars were straight and from the guard (hips facing in, not out toward the legs), anyway. wow, just wow... you need to calm the fuck down.

hazelett/burkman = Russian finish (with the craziest set-up) Nog-Herman/Crocop = convential belly-down finish

Satoko-Shinashi. GOAT.
 
Apples and eggplants. I don't know all of them off the top of my head but I think Fedor got all of his from the bottom and Ronda gets hers from mount. Has Ronda even been on the bottom in a fight and has Fedor ever mounted anyone? Fedor said himself that he doesn't have the flexibility to get triangles so the armbar is the only thing the guy on top had to look out for and he still got them on good fighters. Everyone was only looking for armbars with Ronda too and she still got them. I'll lean towards Fedor since the bottom is more of a pressure situation.

ronda scored some from the bottom, too. I think she got Kaufman, and I also think she got one against one of her earlier opponents.

fedor had some top-armbars too. I tapped ogawa and that guy from TUF 2, Kerry Schall. they were both pretty sloppy, though.
 
Rhonda's armbar looked sloppy as fuck in the second Tate fight. I still can't believe Meisha tapped while her head and shoulders were out.
 
Fedor. But imo one of the best armbars is still Hughes-GSP ,just amazing.
