Yea I know but I have yet to see his true skill in the UFC. Taking it to a past prime/post op Lesnar, doesn't show much. Not to take anything way from his abilities. That said, I would love to see how he fairs against his next opponent.
Lol guys chill, that's not the full list and like I said, in no order. Vitor is def one of the best. Most of those guys are my favs, that's why I put em there. And yea say what you will about Penn being bloated, doesn't take away the skill Diaz put out in that trade. I'll put more gifs of these said fighters that weren't in later. Better yet, instead of complaining, throw a gif yourself, or a link and I'll put it. Don't worry they will get up there brobocops.
Lol butvuou put in Nick Diaz who beat a bloated BJ and lost to Condit? Ok.
So I guess outstriking guys like Lawler, Shamrock, Smith, Zaromksi, Daley, Cyborg, Noons, & Gomi dont mean shit!
Not according to the OP. I was just going by his logic. I think Nick is a very good MMA boxer.
So according to your logic, Nick Diaz' UFC striking is overrated?
I know brotha, I was being a little sarcastic. Faber has been a fav of mine, but with that said, his striking is amazing. Granted his performance against Cruz/Aldo/Barao were lackluster, in his defense look at those names and tell me who outclassed or even came close to outclassing them on the feet. I mean how he did against Wineland and Bowles was fantastic.
As for the Lesnar thing, look the guy is not known for his striking AT ALL lol! On top of that, he came back from a huge battle with a near fatal disease. Penn is an AMAZING striker who had a huge battle with conditioning. Two different things you know what I mean?

No worries, man. You're right about Lesnar, but the thing with both Diaz and Overeem is that a large part of their recognition in the striking department has come outside of the UFC. I actually really like both as fighters, and also think they're both slightly overrated haha.
I wonder if Hendricks will eventually fall into the Henderson category of top strikers. Not technically proficient, but they have so much power that they have to be recognized.
Time will tell, but i have a good feeling he will. He's got that Hendo animosity in his step and strikes. Can't wait to see him face GSP....If that happens. You never know with ZUFFA
K I get it Faber isn't best striking material, noted. Jeez was just trying to show Faber some gratitude towards his striking abilities. He looked great in recent non title bouts. Give him a break lol.
