Joe Rogan. National Tae Kwon Do champ. Number 1 MMA commentator. World Class podcaster. World Class proponent of isolation tanks, shrooms, and calling people bitches.
lol
thats wat it says on his wiki page
Alistiar Overeem, K1 Grand Prix champ and has participated in ADCC as well. I think he was a European champ or something
You'll never really know because if someone is good enough to compete at 2 different martial arts then they'll just do MMA. That's kind of what MMA is anyway.
More skills = more skilled
Yea he's like the Michael Jordon of BJJ
k1 maia and shields
on a serious note i think jon jones has the ability to be world class in both
Just as PRIDE legends are remembered by MMA fans - the ones who are familiar with that time period. The new fans from the TUF or FOX era most likely don't know much or care about them.
So in that same regard, I believe new MMA fans that will come to the sport in 5-10 years from now will barely know or even care about GSP or Anderson.
I wouldn't be surprised if history will repeat itself, and the new generation of MMA fans will say that GSP and Anderson fought in a time period when "fighters were not evolved and competitions were easier" or "fighters were mostly jacks of all trades and masters of none". :icon_chee
I agree with pretty much everything except I think new fans wil remember gsp and silva because they fight in the ufc and will be in the hall of fame. Its like people that never have seen ali fight and say he was the greatest boxer of all time
Kid gave Zambidis a competitive fight while it lasted and his base was Wrestling so you have a point there.
Lil Nog was almost boxing for Brazil's national boxing team and he is a very highly esteemed BJJ black belt.
Vitor was originally a BJJ guy and is basically an adopted Gracie, however he has made his name by his ridiculously good stand-up.
Nick Diaz is pretty much the same. World class BJJ under a Gracie and has pro boxing experience.
Nick Diaz in BJJ and boxing.
He had fights either promoted or close to getting promoted between Braulio Estima and Jeff Lacy/or Vargas.
No other MMA fighter can even come close to that other than Alistair.
Meh, Jones is still very green on the ground imo.
He still extends his arm when he is in the guard and he almost got submitted.
Kid took Masato, the champion, to a distance, even knocking him down once. And almost made it to Japan's Olympic wrestling team, which is no joke.
