Everyone deserve a chance to be a warrior.

His debut against Leben was the best. DestructionAnderson is the GOAT Middleweight and that's all anyone ever needs to know... Arguably the greatest of all time at any weight... Certainly his MW run was something incredible to watch.
He really was something special... The way he destroyed great fighters like they were nothing for years... My all time favourite UFC championship run.
Yeah there's no argument he won the Bisping fight. Pretty clear decision.Not really, years from now when we look back we will largely ignore a lot of those late losses. This literally always happens in sports, at the moment it looks bad but people forget about that stuff.
Silva's legacy hasn't really taken much of a hit at all. GSP got a boost because he beat Bisping and was also gifted a win against Hendricks, so sometimes people will look at GSP's last 2 fights without much context and say, see - he's better than Silva! I mean yeah, he came back for a reason and fought at MW for the first time cause Bisping is a transitional champ, plus Silva arguably beat Bisping when Silva was past his prime. The whole GSP>Silva because GSP came back and got the MW title is really weird...it's like some people just want GSP to be ranked higher. Beating Bisping isnt that great of a win, even if he did have the belt on him.
GSP really should have lost to Johnny Hendricks also, so the whole GSP avenged all his losses is kind of weak, he literally retired right after and Hendricks never had a chance at a rematch (he fell apart afterward anyway).
Other than that Jon Jones passed by Silva (and GSP) - which naturally bumps Silva down the totem pole. Some people put Mighty Mouse over him as well.
the ped issues and the losing streak has affected his status. he should have left after the bisping fight or brunson W. or hell, not come back once he broke his leg
Damn straight.
And the dick pills too.
. he had that three-fight skid, but aside from that, he was very consistent. and he never looked outclassed in any fight.
