Forget about the GOAT debate which is rightfully belongs to Fedor, if you poll it on Sherdog, he wins, if you poll it with fighters, he wins, if you poll it in brazil, he wins and so on.
One thing about Fedor that will never be replicated is that he literally embodies his country and his martial arts. I mean, he's stoic, calm, cold blooded, religious, nationalist, kinda sexist in a traditional way, vodka loving Russian, who if you look at his sambo matches before he got old and careful after losing three in row, he had very strike-to-throw style that he implemented very well in MMA in his combat sambo matches.
I mean, who else is there who really can say that they represent their country as one of their citizens so well, I mean by that not necessarily by their success but by their personality and demeanor, and also the maritial arts style that he represents?
Maybe Don Frye for USA, loud, brash, confident, gun loving, beer loving, representing the good old united states of america martial arts, wrassling.
