Anderson wouldn't get past Paul Craig.
LMAO. Chonan was well ahead in that fight even the commentators said so. The only people that think Chonan was losing didn't watch the fight and get their opinions from the short video you posted instead of actually watching the fight.
He was still in his prime and was ranked 1st in the world at WW.In those fights he was still learning BJJ and didnt have his black belt. Since he got his black belt he's been submitted 0 times
You watch the fight since it's clear you have only watched that clip where Barnett claims it was a comeback submission.Joe Rogan also cries when Ronda Rousey fights. It is universally known that the commentators are full of shit toward a japanese fighter fighting in pride, especially in that fight. Watch the fight again
I hate when people just say bullshit. Chonan was getting fucked up the entire fight. Anderson was literally just spamming strikes against him and had no respect for Chonan
the Takase fight was Anderson's 13th fight and was only 1 round
Physical prime yes, but he became much more well rounded after. Its like saying Jan was in his prime when he was in KSW and not nowHe was still in his prime and was ranked 1st in the world at WW.
Jan wasn't ranked 1st in the world in KSW so no its not the same. Anderson was ranked 1st in the world at WW before he was in the UFC.Physical prime yes, but he became much more well rounded after. Its like saying Jan was in his prime when he was in KSW and not now
Chael sonnen is one of the best pure wrestlers mma has ever seen with one of the best double legs in the sport... he took down absolutely everyone... he took people down as well as khabib.... no joke.... he just also had shit submission defense... if he had good submission defense he would have been one of the greatest ever. That is not being outrageous you just would have to understand the whole game and the history.He barely squeaked by Chael Sonnen lol, Jan would give Silva problems.
That was in the early 2000s when WW wasn't established. Besides some fighters do better at other weight classes, Thiago Santos and Lawler for exampleJan wasn't ranked 1st in the world in KSW so no its not the same. Anderson was ranked 1st in the world at WW before he was in the UFC.
So? I don't care what year it was fighters who aren't in their primes don't get ranked 1st in the world. And those examples don't apply to Anderson as he was 1st in the world at WW before he was first in the world at MW.That was in the early 2000s when WW wasn't established. Besides some fighters do better at other weight classes, Thiago Santos and Lawler for example
His prime was in UFC. Late prime.Anderson lost to Takase and Chonan in his prime, he could certainly lose to Jan.
He was ranked 1st in the world at WW before he joined the UFC. His prime started before he was in the UFC.His prime was in UFC. Late prime.
He was overrated but he did beat Dan Henderson. And stopped him.any man that does that is badassUnlike your opinion laden post. Anderoid was in his physical prime and allowed to dope in pride. He got the snot beaten out of him and was subbed by flying shit. His only wins in pride are over ufc fighters. Izzy didn’t get his ass handed to him in Japanese mma repeatedly.
I wouldn’t say Anderson was overrated. I actually think he is a better overall fighter prime for prime than Izzy. I am just being a little harsh due to the heavily biased and illogical OPHe was overrated but he did beat Dan Henderson. And stopped him.any man that does that is badass
