Burns or Melendez? They both went on massive losing streaks near the end of their careers, but Melendez had some good fights in Strikeforce and an absolute war with Diego Sanchez. Have to go with Melendez.
 
That’s good. I will say burns. Melendez has more titles but Burns has better strength of schedule in my opinion.
 
Melendez easily.. fought the who's who during his era, was top 3 in the world without the UFC's marketing and without being in the UFC, was a multiple org Champion, and arguably lost a UFC Title fight that many thought he in fact won. Burns was a mid tier LW who lost to just about all his top competitors at WW who weren't "past their prime".
