Do you guys think Prime Paulo Filho could beat todays best at MW, or even WW?

Guy was a monster back in time... Of course with todays USADA testing he would have to adapt a lil bit. he was 17-0 i think until losing to Chael in that crazy ass fight, that he looked out of his mind...
A shame that his mental problems ended pretty much a once brilliant carreer.

Way too big in his prime to fight at WW, surprised he made MW back in the day. That being said he could break into the top 10 but the top 5 would rough him up.

Pretty much this!

That's exactly how I see it.

Absolutely no way, could you imagine him vs Rockhold, Weidman, Jacare or Yoel? He'd get killed even the guys in the 5-10 range like one eye Bisping, Old Anderson, Lazy Gegard, Murica timken or young Robert Whittaker beat him easily.

He'd be in the 12-15 Leites, Hall, Camozzi range

Top 5, not number 1 though, imo.

Chael tooled him 2x. He got lucky in their first fight but was getting smashed that entire fight. And he got whooped in the 2nd fight again.

Nah, Paulo FINISHED Fail Sonnen in the 1st fight, and Fail got the DECISION in the 2nd fight due to Paulo being trained by Timothy Leary. Don't skew, we get it, you hate brown people.
