    Like the title says.......

    Which fighter would make you less interested in the UFC, if they left?

    For me, if the Spider left, I would be numb for awhile.

    Discuss.......

    Anderson....by far. Jones is a distant second.

    No one. I like to watch the guys fight, could care less about the fandom attached to a fighter.

    I agree. Even though I am not a Silva fan, he is really fun to watch (minus the Maia and Leites fights obviously)

    When Shogun, Wanderlei & Nogueira retire

    Won't quit watching the UFC or MMA but it will be a tough pill to swallow.

    Anderson by far, then Jones and JDS.

    Two of those are basically as good as gone...

    Fedor never signed so they never had the best fighter.

    While I agree Anderson is the best ... Anderson is old and technically could retire already if he wanted to.

    I say Jon Jones would be a bigger lost to the UFC because he is younger, undefeated and fights in a more popular division and might end up in the most popular division ... HW ... in a year or two.

    So I would say Jon Jones would make other's lost interesting in the UFC more than Silva.

    Silva has already done it all ... and I wouldn't be surprised if he retires soon.

    I've seen fighters come and go from the UFC. Nothing's going to make me less interested.

    Those are the dudes that would leave me numb if/when they retire. There's a few else but those guys stick out the most for me.
