Prime Shogun vs Prime Vitor

Prime Shogun defeats any version of Vitor !
 
I would take Shogun over every version of Vitor except "TRT Vitor".

It's a bit of a misnomer as I believe Vitor was using TRT a few fights before he became a head kicking machine.

The Vitor that blasted Hendo and Rockhold into outer space scares me, though. I wouldn't argue with someone that favored him over Shogun.

Sadly, as a Shogun fan, I've long wished he would roid. Few fighters need it so badly :( My justification would be simple: with 3 ACL tears, luck gave him a horrible draw. Not a fan but if Cruz resorted to roiding I wouldn't hold it against him either.
 
What about Motivated BJ Penn, pre diverticulitis Brock, or PRIDE Fedor?
 
I would go with Shogun on this one his 2005 GP run was amazing.
 
Shogun ruled in pride Vitor couldn't do well with the pace, a prime shogun wins.. I was a big Vitor fan growing up.. So hard to say but true... The fight I always wanted was a prime Vitor vs Prime Frank Shamrock, but shamrock walked away from the UFC before it could happen
