Prime Fedor beats everyone

Where? Ring and pride rules or cage/unified rules? Fedor fought most of his career in a ring under pride rules.

Maybe a couple of guys went 30+ fights without losing badly. DC, Stipe, Jones, Gsp, Aldo and Chuck slowed down big time by their 25-26th fight. At that point, either you go on a bad losing streak( Aldo and Chuck) or retire to save your legacy (Gsp, DC, Jones). Fedor fought and won 32 times against behemoths before losing. Impressive as fuck.

Your goat is your personal choice and I respek that. To me Fedor is the goat.

Fedor's talent is still up there with anyone, and he would have the benefit of modern training/technique and modern MMA strength and conditioning. He would be light-years ahead of what he showed as a result of this. Of course, he very likely wouldn't be a heavyweight in this era, but would likely still be an elite fighter in whichever weight class.

Just a constant reminder that Fedor fans still don't realize that fighters have improved in every single way.

With the exception of heavyweight and I think that’s the point. That division has devolved tremendously. Everyone is slow, sloppy, lacking in refined fundamentals, and of poor conditioning compared to the golden era.

No way Prime Fedor beats the Ngannou that dusted Stipe off like a old southern quilt

Fedor is too small and too sloppy for Ngannou. Then you gonna let Ngannou supplement under Prides zero rules....stop it.

Fedor doesn’t stand a chance.

If you think he was sloppy, you missed the first decade or so of his career. Francis would’ve been quickly put to the mat and submitted. Pretty sure Francis would look exactly the same under Pride management lol.
 
He would be a LHW tbh. Too small for HW division

Since when Semmy Schilt was good in MMA ? We're not in K1...

If we exclude Nogueira, Hunt, Mirko and Arlovski, most of the names in your list are unimpressive.

And yet, even among the names i mentioned, none of them did well in the UFC, Mark Hunt excepted...

Semmy Schilt 100% had a respectable record in MMA at the time. And Nog and Arlovski weren't UFC champs?

Goodridge, Hunt, and Coleman (2nd fight) were not top 10 when they fought Fedor. Fighting top 10 opponents less than 30% of the time makes it a lot easier to keep a streak going. Travis Fulton has matched or beaten Fedor's streak 3x in the HW division.

Further evidenced by Fedor going 3-1 the first time he fought 4 top 10 opponents in a row, and then 3-3 when he faced 6 in a row. One of those 6 being ranked at LHW, not HW, and 3 of the 6 being ranked at the very bottom of the top 10.

The "argument" is that people exaggerate his streak and accomplishments, and his streak is mainly attributed to fighting bums, cans, freak shows, unranked, and non top 10 opponents.

I see and respect your point. There just isn't any space in my brain that will ever compare Fedor's streak to Travis Fulton's streaks and I shouldn't have to explain why, that seems like an exaggerated point for the sake of your argument. Fedor going 3-1 and then 3-3 after 10 years and 30 fights is more than normal after that kind of mileage and it and shouldn't tarnish his legacy, but to each his own.
 
I don't think Stipe, Ngannou or any fighter I've seen lately would be able to accomplish Fedor's undefeated streak if you gave them his schedule back in the day. Fedor was dangerous everywhere and was able to finish a fight anywhere. I'm not saying I think his opponents were overall any better than these guys but I do think they would end up getting caught or injured before accomplishing what Fedor did.

His pee-pee is living rent free in your inbred brain moron...

Yup, any weight any fighter, including women.
 
No other fighter is yet to accomplish something on par with going undefeated at HW for a decade, while taking on all comers.
 
5 years ago mocking people for calling Fedor the GOAT would have elicited a fierce response from the Okhrana. But the Okhrana is gone now.

I love when people skew percentages. Real facts, during this streak he still has more top 10 wins at Heavyweight by a large margin than anybody ever.

#6 Semmy Schilt
#10 Heath Herring
#1 Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira
#9 Gary Goodridge
#9 Mark Coleman
#2 Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira
#4 Mirko Filipovic

Your math is also wrong. It's 37.5%.

Wow... I wonder how Cain/DC would beat those beasts. Cain would struggle with Gary Goodrich/Brett Rogers.
 
love fedor but no i don't he beats everyone, UNLESS he plays it safe like gsp. fedor's quick and can land and escape out of the pocket if he chooses. if he works on his td defense, strikes and retreats then i would agree he could probably beat anyone by DECISON similar to gsp.
