Fabricio Werdum Elects His Top 5 HW's Off All Time, Includes Himself

[jaredmc16]

Cain is nowhere near top 5. Neither is Hunt. JDS, Overeem, CC and Barnett are all ahead of them, PRobly Arlovski too

 

[Tormund]

Werdum is the UFC's greatest HW champ and he's got NO.1 right

Jeez guy let him defend his belt before you start labelling him the greatest UFC HW champ

 

[bjpenngoat]

i thought he was tight with mirko i guess i was off.

 

[jaredmc16]

LOL at number 4 and 5

 

[SavageAngel]

LOL at number 4 and 5

Mark Hunt I can understand it being weird. But Cain is a solid top 5 HW.

 

[ShoopNazi]

I wish he made a top 15 HW list because I'm curious as to where he ranks Ronda.

 

[Fedor_GOAT_15-0Pride.]

Wow. Crazy list.
No Cro Cop, or Couture??!!!

 

[basedgodfedor]

He put 4 people he beat around him which is funny but he's right about the top 3. No Doubt about it.

Werdum's top 5 picks for best Heavy-Weights of All Time! The brazilian press and journos have been having a field day in Curitiba. All the talk is UFC 198. Many of the brazilian stars have been having a lot of exposition, and rightly so. Here is one of the interviews from our Champ Werdum. I translated it.

Fedor Emelianenko - É o maior de todos os tempos, sempre o admirei, sempre assisti às lutas dele. O Fedor sempre se comportou como um samurai, respeitando os adversários. Fala pouco e mostra muito na hora da luta.

FEDOR EMELIANENKO - The biggest, baddest and best of all time, I've always admired and watched his fights. Fedor always behaved like a samurai, respecting his opponents. He is very soft spoken, but shows a monster inside when he fights.

Rodrigo Minotauro - O que ele fez pelo esporte... Comecei a lutar por conta dele. É muita raça, dedicação. A galera se emocionava ao ver a superação dele. Ele fez muito pelo esporte.

RODRIGO MINOTAURO - He has done so much for the sport... I started fighting because of him. He is all heart and dedication. The people here in Brazil always got emotional when seeing him fight, because of all that he has been through. His fights are a testemant of willpower. He has done so much for the sport.

Fabricio Werdum - Eu me coloco, mas com humildade (risos). Meu objetivo é ser o melhor da história na opinião dos fãs. Sem querer ser prepotente, sem parecer que estou me achando. Sou um veterano, estou na história, ganhei dos melhores.

FABRICIO WERDUM - I put myself in this list, but as a humble man (LOL). My goal is to be the best ever in the eyes of the fans, but without being cocky and I don't want to come across as a douche. I'm a veteran of the sport now, i'm in history books of MMA, and I beat the best.

Cain Velásquez - Foi campeão no wrestling, no UFC. Tinha raça, coração gigante, sempre nocauteou a galera e tem um jogo muito difícil.

CAIN VELASQUEZ - He was a wrestling champ and a UFC champ. He had a lot of grit and willpower, he always knocked the dudes down and had a very difficult game to deal with.

Mark Hunt - É um cara que migrou do K-1 para o MMA e está indo muito bem. Tem experiência, o jeito que ele nocauteia é impressionante. Fisicamente, não parece muito bem, é gordinho, para não falar gordo, mas a patada dele é impressionante. Com ele, é perigo o tempo todo. Ele fala com os olhos: "Vou te nocautear".

MARK HUNT - This dude migrated from K-1 to MMA and he did it really well. He has the experience, and the way he knocks people out is amazing. Physically he doesn't amount to much at first... Let's say he is a little chubby, so to not say he is a fatty...LOL...But his hands are tree trunks, it's very impressive. When facing him, you're in constant danger. His eyes speak to you always: "I WILL KNOCK YOU THE F*** OUT!". Scary!

Sneaky Werdum....Sneak guy...so much sneak

He listed guys that he beat. hahaha

He did get 1 through 3 correct though

 

[basedgodfedor]

He's right about the top 3 fedor goat

 

[danny23]

Junior fans not gonna be happy with this
I have to disagree with him,Junior has a better case for top 5 HW than Cain does.

 

[jaredmc16]

Mark Hunt I can understand it being weird. But Cain is a solid top 5 HW.

No hes not. What is he 13-2, Beating a very small variety of fighters.

JDS, OVereem, Crocop, Barnett and even Arlovski are all ahead of him.

 

[rakeleaves]

Jeez guy let him defend his belt before you start labelling him the greatest UFC HW champ

He isn't some new champ that has to prove himself by defending it. He's a veteran of the sport who has one of the best HW resumes ever, including wins over Fedor, Nog and Cain.

Win over Browne and Vera too

 

[NoBiasJustMMA]

His top 3 looks good but I don't think Cain or Hunt are top 5.

 

[jaredmc16]

Wow. Crazy list.
No Cro Cop, or Couture??!!!

Couture belongs nowhere near a GOAT list, especially top 5

 

[Hans Gruber]

Fedor Emelianenko - He is the greatest of all time, always admired him, always I watched his fights. Fedor always behaved like a samurai, respecting opponents. He speaks little and shows a lot of fight time.

Rodrigo Minotauro - What he did for the sport ... I started to fight for him. It's a lot of race, dedication. The crowd was thrilled to see the overcoming of it. He did a lot for the sport.

Fabricio Werdum - I put myself, but with humility (laughs). My goal is to be the best ever in the opinion of the fans. Without being boastful, without sounding like I'm finding myself. I'm a veteran, I am in history, i've beat the best.

Cain Velasquez - He was champion in wrestling and UFC. Had breed giant heart, always knocked out the guys and have a very difficult game.

Mark Hunt - is a guy who migrated from K-1 to MMA and is doing very well. He has experience, the way he knocks out is impressive. Physically, it does not seem very well, it is chubby, not to mention fat, but the power of his hand is amazing. Fight him is being in danger all the time. He speaks with his eyes, "I'll knock you out."

Sneaky Werdum...such a sneak guy. So much sneak

He listed guys that he beat (although he did get the top 3 right)

 

[SavageAngel]

He did get 1 through 3 correct though

I realized that too hahahah"!

Werdum is known to be sneaky and a jokster, so yeah, he put all the dudes he beat on the list. But I agree with most of them.

 

[Fedor_GOAT_15-0Pride.]

Couture belongs nowhere near a GOAT list, especially top 5

????????
Two time heavy weight champ amd destroyed tito and chuck in theit primes, not to mention he started mma at 35!!!!

 

[Fedor_GOAT_15-0Pride.]

Where is the GOAT dear Fabricio?

I was gonna mention bas too. But i still think couture amd cro cop belong in the conversation
