Oh, I see. Nevermind.

Sean Sherk's record is like, 1 win away from being an all-time great.

James Toney.

Dude, great pull.

 

[DougieJones]

I guessed Muscle Shark right off the bat lol... didn't he only lose to BJ and Hughes? Might be wrong about Hughes

Massive amounts of roids are the only mark against him

 

[Danespina]

Massive amounts of roids are the only mark against him

Especially cause he was the only one using at that time.

Oh I know everyone was on gear back then... but he was using so much he was one of the few that was actually disciplined because of it lol

 

[Duck Dodgers]

If Yan counts then Usman and Volk do as well.

Smashing Machine era.

Yeah, that's like a casino getting busted for intent to exploit compulsive behavior.

Yup and actually Tim Sylvia as well then.

Realistically, Sylvia only lost to UFC champs (Mir, Arlovski, Couture, Big Nog) and Pride champs (Fedor in Affliction, Big Nog in UFC) while he was taking the sport seriously. After that Fedor fight he seemingly stopped caring and came in WAY fat for fights.

Of course, this takes into account fighters who later went on to become champions. That shouldn’t be hard to understand.

He doesn't want to understand it

Serra wasn’t champion when GSP lost to him. Or does it make the list because Serra got the belt from that fight?

I was just considering anyone who had been champion at anytime.

Dude, great pull.

You're not wrong lol

I counted Yan incorrectly, as someone else pointed out before. So he shouldn't be on the list.

Knew Sean Sherk was the answer before even clicking the spoilers in the OP.

War Sherk!

Yan doesn't, I put him incorrectly

His bloodbath with Kenny doesn't get mentioned enough anymore
