In terms of prime skill level, Bobby and Yoel are the two best Middleweights ever

[Matty da Ranga]

I love Anderson, Hendo, Rich Franklin etc., but I think UFC 225's main event was an awesome showcase of the two best 185ers we've ever seen. However you scored the fight (I had it a draw), I was simply amazed that a 41 year old Yoel was able to keep up with Robert's speed and movement, and was equally impressed with Robert's toughness, chin, and grit.

Obviously you can never count Matrix Andy or TRT Vitor out of a fight, but I think the aforementioned two would beat them more often than not.

Robert and Yoel are as far ahead of today's competition as Anderson was to the competition of the late 2000s.

Lost to Shlemenko and got finished by Jacare and Hall. Sorry buddeh, Whittaker has zero losses at 185. Yoel has ONE, and that's to Bobby Knuckles.

INB4 a delusional Pride fan claims Filho, Kang or Misaki were.

Wrong for one?
Avenged the flukiest KO in the history of MMA with a domination

Rob might be undefeated at MW but he got 'murdered by Wonderboy and wobbled by everyone he's fought at 185

Moose would jab his damn face off

Yoel?
Hahahahaha Mousasi would have him sucking for air in no time

 

[xentreos]

I disagree , Anderson is the correct answer. Especially to say they are head and shoulders better than everyone else like Anderson is crazy. I can’t say kelvin g moose weidman rockhold don’t have a chance against them , with the mw top five during Silva’s reign we could certainly say that.

Edit: I do find it a shame moose ain’t in the ufc , we need him in there with these dudes. Moose vs Yoel? A total pickem fight imo

I agree with you that prime Silva, Hendo and Vitor would have beaten both of these two last night. You're right about that.

Whittaker is certainly a great fighter. Anabol Yoel is pure horsemeat who owes his achievements to the needle.

Rob has been rocked twice in the UFC. Wonderboy and Romero. Who else supposedly wobbled him?

Firstly, he wasn't wobbled in that fight. Secondly, you said every person he has fought at middleweight and named one. Thirdly, you sound like a child.
