George St. Pierre or Fedor Emelianenko - Who's the most iconic MMA fighter? (The Finals)

[HHJ]

Pride was only good for a couple years.. even rampage said this week it was never about the best fighting the best or even being the best but entertaining people..

Fedor was a guy that everyone said was washed at 31-32 when in reality he was a prime version that was just losing.. fighters hit there peak around 8-10 yr mark at late to early 30's and Fedor was losing to big foot and Dan and getting slapped around by Brett Roger's before the hail Mary Haymarket.

He was fun to watch and very exciting but one of the absolute most over rated guy on this site..

It was so bad that people at the time started blaming on him becoming Christian was why he was performing so terrible.

Rampage whines about everything
He whines about how pride treated him
he whines about how ufc treated him

Fedor is the sole focus of all thought

What a shame. I was looking for either Jones or Silva to be picked, but neither made it. I guess between Fedor or GSP I'd pick Fedor for his style and finishing guys way bigger than him.

 

[MuffinsAppletree]

I love GSP but it’s Fedor for me

Ok, so rampage whines a bit, but everything in my post is pretty valid and anyone could make a solid argument for all my points.

Nothing I said was false

GSP by far

GSP beat the middleweight champ.
Fedor got KOed by a middleweight.

GSP knew when to retire.
Fedor fought well after he should have retired.

GSP was in a Captain America movie.
I bumped into Fedor at the airport.

Of course it was false.

Fedor had already had a very long career when he started losing. How long is he supposed to keep that up?? How long is anyone?

Someone goes 10 yrs undefeated,and the jig is up because he cant go 20? Away and bow your head.

If no one knows who Fedor is then why is he winning the fuckin poll over GSP?

Just another noob who doesnt want to have respect for things he wasnt around for,and dont know nothing about and can only cite a jilted lover to back up his limp wristed claims.

Lies.
If you would have seen the illustrious Fedor in the flesh,you would have seent his aura,and then be convinced to vote for him!

Transferring planes in Amsterdam.

Guy looked like a rugby player.

Big, but not massive.

Didn't look overly musclebound, but had large quads

He was 32 years old and exactly 10 yrs and 1 month as a professional when he lost to werdum.

Everybody as far back as 07-08 were saying hevwas washed, not the same etc

That would make him roughly 29 when he fought guys like lindland and there were rumbles then.

And yes, like I said this is a mma site and people know him.. I would almost guarantee you that more people would know Anderson Silva or gsp in Russia than people in North America know fedor!Fedor!! Of course you'll say no!! But it's true.

Icon is someone that stands out and his 5 yrs of standing out pales in comparison to a Silva or gsp.

Pride was done in 2006, he didn't even debut until 2002, he fought 14 times in pride going 13-0-1

Then all of a sudden he is washed and can't fight for shit anymore. Oh yeah because he became Christian!! Lol

Tim was a washout and even 44 yr old randy dropped him, everyone was koing Andre at that time and let's not even talk about lindland or hangman.


Goes to strike force and goes 1-3 and was getting smashed by Roger's until the hailmary haymaker.
Then get beat 3 times in a row. The money strikforce was paying him it's a wonder why they had to sell.

If you look at it a lot of that 13-0-1 record is filled with filler fights and easy outs like Zulu and whether you like to hear this or not mark Coleman.

The only good wins on that pride resume is big nog and cro cop who he never rematched.

I was a fan back then too just like I am today I'm not some snot nosed kid who just started watching and going over wiki, I lived through these eras and watched it all in real time

Who was everyone that was Koing arlovski at that time. Do tell?

All Brett Rogers really managed was alot of hugging and a brief moment of GNP before getting reversed,cos Fedor is a G.

Fedor is iconic to people,and that is why he is winning the poll

This is a site of MMA fans,and thats who they picked. Sorry you had to find out like this that Fedor is the Icon of Icons,but you should have known that already.

Fedor was the best fighter I've ever seen,and his time on top of the sport was the best time I ever had following a fighter. So he's iconic to me and to all those who feel the same and is beloved by all except for the snot nosed kids,and I dunno,maybe some butthurt Crocop fans?

We will agree to disagree

And don't pretend Andre wasn't having issues with the chin around that time heck Brett Roger's steamed him in like 30 seconds. He was getting hurt and dropped in every fight for awhile then turned it around.

Well, I'm glad a mma forum is blessing your favorite fighter. But he was far from the best ever to do it. He was exciting to watch yes, if he was the best fighter you've ever seen you haven't been paying good attention

 

[HHJ]

That was only after Fedor sent him to the shadow realm in mid air,and he landed the opposite way he came in.

Stop it, he has always been Chinny you know that bro. Why you gotta play games?

That particular punch would have knocked out a water buffalo

Unless we just dont give credit to anyone beating arlovski now?

Yeah Fedor had a great overhand right, but to say that's what made Andre Chinny is false. Watch his fight even before then he has always had a weaker chin

The point you were trying to make is everyone was knocking out arlovski at that time,which wasnt true. AA was having a pretty good run before he went down gloriously in flames to the fistic supremacy of Fedor.

Wether AA had a good chin or not is irrelevant.

Who was finding his chin?? Fedor
Who started his downfall?? Fedor
Who is the prettiest,handsomest most sexiest fighter,the best looking with the most skill?? Fedor

He was knocked out by Tim 2 1/2 yr before Fedor did it, and by Roger's after Fedor did it. He was hurt multiple times against Silva then finished by Sergei

Clearly you are trolling and not being serious but a lot of what I said is true.

Have a great morning bro, it was a fun chat.
