Fedor vs Cain is the fight I wish I could see. 2005 Fedor vs 2012 Cain is one for the literal Ages.. I think Cain has the better Wrestling, like from a Pure Standpoint of just Wrestling, I'd give the advantage to Cain.. BUT Fedor would have the Judo & Submissions, also his Top Game was next Level, he was way ahead of his time.. So Grappling Exchanges would be a tough Chess Match for either, especially with both in their Prime. Both would also have Speed, Power, Cardio, Chins... I could easily see it being the Greatest Fight not just in HW History, but in MMA History.

Heart- Fedor
Mind- Cain
PRIDE Ruleset in a Ring- Fedor
UFC Ruleset in a Cage- Cain
Forget every other, this is the ONE we all should've had.
Sure things nerd
Most people ? While nobody cares about those antiques outside of Sherdog.
Also, the salty guy is actually the one stuck in the past because he can't handle the present
Nelson probably wins, but Tank was a juco All-American wrestler, much stronger than Roy and hit even harder (his short punch KO over Nelmark was as impressive as anything Carwin ever did). 1996 Tank wasn't a joke or a 50/50 fighter. The only guy who beat him in under 18 minutes was Don Frye, and that was Tank's third fight of the night...and he had Frye wobbly and stunned before he gassed. And remember these are HWs and both guys are always one punch away from winning. Even at his best Roy was slow and very hittable. Werdum said that Nelson was physically weak, too. He hit hard but was muscled around by Mir and others. No one said that about Tank, especially after he picked up Cal Worsham and nearly tossed him over the Octagon.
And practically everyone Nelson beat got caught with a overhand right telegraphed from a mile away. At least some of Tank's opponents (like Ferrozzo) would've eaten multiple shots from Nelson before going down.
