The 4 best middleweights in the world are all former welterweights

[Xoleth]

lmao you lost me at Strickland.. I would add fluffy instead of him

Strickland beat the shit out of Izzy, had a very competitive fight with DDP (many thought he won), easily beat Imavov.
Yeah, he had a bad performance in his last fight. Before he fight, sherdoggers were screaming "staph, staph, he has staph", after the fight they kind of forgot.

Fluffy beat Dolidze and Michel Pereira. Wow!

1. Khamzat
2. DDP
3. Imavov
4. Strickland

Wasn't whitaker a ww too at one point?
Anderson was a ww also i think a long time ago.

 

[surgeyou1]

All former babies too

Look into it

 

[ricains_cretins]

Aren't we all former welterweights ?

 

[AmonTobin]

Some much more recently than others.

Hernandez's new fanbitches and bandwagonners are already ruining this thread.
Strickland > Hernandez.

 

[BowserJr]

If MW were tough it would be called WW

BTW, arent today's fighters supposed to make all previous generations look like manlets? LoL

 

[chinarice]

and people still use the Burns fight to shit on Khamzat when Burns did 100x better than the former MW champ that didn't lose a UFC fight.

Maybe, just maaayyyyybe, Gilbert Burns was really fucking good and that was actually a very, very good win for Khamzat?

Sherdog and UFC both rank Strickland at 4.

Sherdoggers whose feelings have been hurt by Strickland: “You’re an idiot, Strickland isn’t 4!”

Edit - Just checked Tapology. Strickland is 4 on there too.

Nothing new.
At some point Anderson, Marquardt, Okami were the top3 at MW. All of them former WWs.
