Vettori vs this top 10

[BowserJr]

Where would you rank Vettori when MW had this top 10

Weidman
Rockhold
Machida
Mousasi
Romero
Jacare
Silva
ViTRTor
Bisping
Kennedy

 

[Alexander_GOATanovski]

All in their prime? Only guy I'd put below Vettori would be Bisping. Everybody else on that list is elite or at least close to elite unlike Vettori. Vettori's biggest assets are that he's really durable and has great cardio. He's not very skilled especially compared to the guys on your list.

Vettori would be out of the top 15. MW was a killer division back then. Now it’s as bad as LHW.

Loses to the rest.

 

[TitoSchaubHighIQ]

He would be competitive but most likely would lose to all except Kennedy and maybe Bisping

 

[King in the North]

He would probably beat Bisping

 

[BFoe]

Beats Kennedy, and *maybe Bisping. Maybe Weidman too. That’s about it imo.

lol

when anderson was champ

"MW is the weakest division in the UFC"

- everyone

 

[Fedsmoker]

He'd smoke all of them, the UFC keeps evolving bro.

 

[Sweater of AV]

They all beat him.

 

[fortheo]

He'd be top ten. His cardio and chin alone would help him get some big wins.

 

[DLX]

mw used to be stacked yo

People did used to say that, and it was really dumb.

Though a lot of these guys are more post Silva era.

He was like 22 when this was the top 10. are they all 22 or are they all conveniently the ages of their peaks while Vettori hasn't reached his yet?

Weidman - he'd prob give Weidman a decent fight with his chin and grit, but ultimately loses IMO
Rockhold - Horrid matchup, bad idea to fuck with Rockhold on the ground and his kicking game would cause issues
Machida - Machida had good TDD in his prime, could easily counter Marvin all night
Mousasi - He could win this fight from top position all night, Moose did have a good guard though. Winnable fight for Marvin
Romero - Marvin relies a lot on his strength and he's sure as fuck not outmuscling Yoel. Gotta wonder how many Romero bombs his chin can take. I take Yoel
Jacare - Marvin's got good enough TDD to keep it standing and he could out-grit Jacare over 5 rounds. Winnable fight for Marvin
Silva - Marvin def beats old man Silva
ViTRTor- Marvin does have the chin to eat some bombs but who knows for how long. Could see him taking down TRTor and grinding him out
Bisping- Winnable fight for Marvin, mixes his wrestling and striking
Kennedy - Another winnable fight for Marvin, I think he's got the grit to beat Kennedy over 5 rounds.

A lot of problematic matchups but Marvin could def fit somewhere in here.

I agree for the most part

I dont see him beating Kennedy or Vitrtor.

Vitor was koing everyone including Hendo.

Kennedy is better everywhere imo but he is smaller so I could see that being an issue though

 

[Hellowhosthat]

People on here continually underrate Vettori, a guy with who's 8/10 at everything like that with insane cardio and an iron chin is a problem.

Vettori would beat Kennedy rather handily. Kennedy doesn't have the power or the striking acumen to accomplish anything and his ground game is nullified by Vettori's.

Kennedy isn't a better striker. On the feet Vettori would win rather handily.

Vitor had 53% TDD.

I don't think Marvin would stand with him very long, he'd get in the clinch or shoot on him very shortly. But he could definitely get KO'd trying to do so.
