    FEDOR DOES NOT DESERVE #3 ON THE P4P.
    WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME HE BEAT A TOP TEN HW.
    I DONT BELIEVE THE HYPE.

  2. Friendo Says:

    You don’t need to believe the hype. Just believe the loads of fighters who talk him up and his domination of Nogera twice. He has bounced quality fighters and freakshows alike. What more can you ask from him? The top fighters for the last few years have been tied up with the UFC. Couture left because of this problem. Randy leaving his belt like a bad prom date to go make a fight happen with Fedor is quite a testament to Fedors standing in the MMA world. The #1 & #2 guys on this list havent fought guys with huge size advantages like fedor has. Too bad we can’t shrink ray Fedor down to go against Sylva and Pierre.

    i think rampage should be 4. Urijah faber hasnt beaten ANYBODY. most overated fighter in the sport. rest of it looks decent. gsp and the spider are definitely top 2 the rest is debateable. but rampage has got the coolest slams, tooled on dan henderson on the ground for 5 rounds, and knocked out chuck liddell. he dominated one the games great wrestlers on the ground and did it for 5 rounds without slowing down. and he knocked out probably the greates puncher of all time in MMA. he looks unstoppable with those credentials im confident he can stand or go to the ground with anybody and do it for five rounds. whose gonna beat rampage anywhere?

  4. gvd Says:

    Dream fight: Silva vs. St. Pierre. It could happen

  5. undrcroft Says:

    Uhhh “whose gonna beat rampage anywhere”? How bout W. Silva TWICE and Both RUA brothers (ninja got screwed, even Rampage admitted that to him). He’s improved since pride but please. He needs to beat atleast one Chute Boxe guy eventually. And Fedor is the best Fighter in recorded history. When he wins against Sylvia by Technical Murder, maybe then the “hasn’t beat anybody in 4ever” bit*hes will STFU!!

    This is a current mma pound for pound there needs to be an all time p4p list.

  7. jst4fun373 Says:

    Lyoto Machida is #8 p4p give me a break…im not on his hype. he’s to much of a runner. to me all he proved is he can stop (a non-hungry) tito from taking him down. lets see him beat W. Sylvia, or hell even forrest he’s over rated.

  8. Jizzle Says:

    Fedor deserves #1 on the p4p list. He is the best fighter. My dream fight would be a 3rd fight of Wanderlei silva and quinton jackson. I think Jackson can beat him now. Did you guys notice that silva stopped throwing knees after pride?
