[Takes Two To Tango]

Cormier

 

[Buff]

Stefan Struve

Spoiler

 

[Istryker]

Cormier

 

[Istryker]

Fedor never had an embarrassing prime lost like miocic did to Struve

 

[Iron Nick]

Stipe has one of the weakest resumes ever for a Champion

Even if you go as far as saying none of his opponents were in their prime, wins against guys like Cormier, Ngannou, JDS, Overeem and Werdum (all by finish with the exception of Ngannou) are a great accomplishment.

Ngannou was a decision iirc.

He lost to Bigfoot when he was 34.

Yeah, totally forgot that, despite having seen the fight live, thanks for the correction, i've corrected it.

 

[Nip Tickler]

What can he do besides beat the people at the top of his division?

 

[Istryker]

He lost to Bigfoot when he was 34.

and?

 

[DOMMA]

Stipe beat FRANCIS NGANNOU.

 

[DOMMA]

and?

Fedor at 34 was pretty close to Prime Fedor. Fedor losing to Bigfoot is equivalent to Stipe losing to The Skyscraper.

 

[Cylence]

Werdum was definitely in his prime, there's no way around it. He was looking better and better under Corderio until Stipe separated him from his senses.

 

[Istryker]

Stipe beat FRANCIS NGANNOU.

ngannou kills him in a rematch

 

[felmmando]

Werdum. I'm not saying he was a young fighter but I really think he was at his best when he fought Miocic.

 

[Fergelmince]

I know that he beat ngannou but that version was green and Most people believe that he gets KTFO if they rematch.


Stipe has one of the weakest resumes ever for a Champion and people claim that he’s a better HW then Fedor.

Who cares. The HW GOAT did this LMAO!!!

He's fought several fighters in their prime, but almost all of his best victories were over past prime fighters.
He still has a MUCH better resume than Fedor if we're being honest though. It's not like he's fighting guys that can't defend an arm-bar or 300lb freaks with no athletic ability. Add to this, he would beat Fedor up.

I feel like Fedor is greater, but Stipe is better. It sorta like comparing Jim Brown to Adrian Peterson. Brown is historically the greater running back in terms of his legacy and impact on the sport, but in no way shape or form was he better than Adrian Peterson.

[Here's the thing]

He lost to Bigfoot when he was 34.

Jesus. That pic of Nate in your av is brutal. His face has beaten, bloodied-up and covered with open wounds perhaps more than any other fighter in UFC history.
