Nogueira, Randleman, Sylvia, and Arlovski were arguably in their prime.And still not a single one while they were currently on top and at their best.
Being the biggest can crusher of all time isn’t easy, it takes dedication to plan and Duck that many people when they were on top for decades and wait till they were on the decline to fight them.
Nogueira was on a thirteen fight win streak, with 5 titles defenses, and was the top HW when Fedor dethroned him. He then went on a 5 fight win streak before Fedor beat him down again.
Arlovski had just come off beating Werdum, Rothwell, and Nelson after losing his title to Sylvia.
Randleman had just knocked out prime CroCop. This was the best win of his career.
Sylvia had lost only to Noguiera, Arlovski (who he rematched and beat twice), and Couture in his last ten fights prior to getting smoked by Fedor.
Facts are facts.
