Fedor fought those dudes in their Primes.

Stipe is taking advantage of an old shallow battle torn HW division.


Fedor Goat.
 
Stipe is the only current HW in his prime. He's good but also the division was ripe for the picking. Entire division is past it
 
Stipe is the UFC GOAT
Fedor is MMA GOAT

Fedor beat his opponents in their prime where as Stipe beat most of his past their primes excluding Werdum and Ngannou.
 
__ Fedor____________________Stipe

1. Nogueira 1________________Werdum
2. Nogueira 3________________Overeem
3. Cro Cop__________________JDS
4. Arlovski___________________Arlovski
5. Sylvia____________________Ngannou
6. Herring___________________Hunt
7. Coleman 1________________Nelson
8. Hunt_____________________Gonzaga
9. Randleman________________Shane del Rosario
10. Babalu___________________Fabio Maldonado

Everybody on Fedor's list has either been a UFC/PRIDE champion, or fought in a UFC/PRIDE championship fight.
Stipe's list has Fabio Maldonado and Shane del Rosario as part of his best 10 wins.

Happy to help out.

But Fedor lost to Maldonado...

Literally the only one in their prime on stipe’s list is overrated ngannou. Stipe beat these guys in the twilight of their careers and is overrated as fuck

I don't think there is a meaningful degree of difference.

Fedor beat the then GOAT HW by complete destruction twice.

That sort of balances out Stipe probably having the advantage towards the back end of the list.
 
But Fedor lost to Maldonado...
Hughes lost to Dennis Hallman. Twice.
Hughes is still the #2 WW of all time.

Focusing on losses 15 years into a guys career is insane. Cain is only in his 10th year of fighting and can't stay health. JDS is in his 11th year of fighting and is already losing it. When Stipe is in his 15th year of fighting lets see how he does, which is 8 years from now. I bet Stipe will have a dozen losses at that point.

I was just pointing out the irony. Fedor fans are funny.
 
To be fair, Overeem and Arlovski have no chins + Werdum literally ran into stipe's fist

Tough to say, the guys on Stipe list to me are better fighters but the guys on Fedors list were all champs

Werdum ran into his fist? It’s a fight, that’s like saying Terry Etim head butted Barbozas foot as a means of discrediting the win. GTFo

I'm a Nog fan so I actually don't like Fedor at all... literally at all.
I just speak about these things with objectivity.

Counting just these:

1. Fedor's win over Big Nog was huge at the time, even bigger that he did it twice. Fedor-1

2. Beating Cro Cop at a kickboxing match at the time was God tier, compared to KOing JDS, who'd been KOed by Reem recently.
Fedor-2

3. Tie. Arlovski was a top guy at the time and had just beaten Nelson, Rothwell, and Werdum, but his chin is so damn bad at times. And Ngannou is too green for it to be a great win. Fedor-3, Stipe-1

4. Tie again. KOing Reem is a meme at this point, and Slyvia's fight with Fedor was the one before he got KOed by Ray Mercer for reference. Both good wins on paper, not in actuality.
Fedor-4, Stipe-2

5. Hammer House guys never had the best sub defence (except Kerr), but Coleman was strong as fuck and had a good top game.
Fedor-5, Stipe-2

6. Stipe's mauling of Hunt was amazing. Enough said.
Fedor-5, Stipe-3

Fedor wins
 
Feder refused to fight Overeem, ofc that was back in the days when he was Ubereem
Stipe beat the crap out of reem

IIRC Fedor's management wanted WADA testing for that fight to happen which Overeem obviously declined.

Tim Sylvia was a submission, and not even to strikes, it was a legit submission win. WTF?
 
People who vote stipe is brain death. Stipe ko the elder fighter and make an horrible lay and pray performances vs the first young fighter he face.

Also.. Fedor.fought in the golden age while stipe is fighting in a death division.

Well the Reason why Fedor's opponents fought in championship fights is because Fedor was the champion. Also Herring never fought in a championship, both him and Fedor were starting out when they fought. All this said it's pretty even. But Stipe gets a sight edge, the Hunt he defeated was better then the Hunt Fedor beat. Werdum is more impressive then any of Fedor wins. Yet Fedor beat a better Arlovski then Stipe beat. It's close, this is how I rank them for most impressive:

Stipe win over Werdum
Fedor win over Nog
Fedor win over Cro Cop
Stipe win over Overeem
Stipe win over Ngannou
Fedor win over Arlovksi
Stipe win over JDS
Fedor win over Nog
Stipe win over Hunt
Fedor win over Sylvia
 
Also Herring never fought in a championship, both him and Fedor were starting out when they fought.
Nogueira and Herring fought for the very first PRIDE HW championship.

Happy to help out but you didn’t read the thread title. It’s says top 5, Stipes best five are better.
