Fedor is the greatest of all time

Fedor has been taking a lot of heat on these boards due to M1 and their refusal to fight anyone remotely relevant in the heavyweight division.  Overeem just came out and confirmed what most of us already know about the entire situation about how they duck anyone they deem tough at every opportunity and instead take the easy road against much lesser opponents.  This has all served to really damage Fedor's legacy.  No denying that.  But another thing that cna't be denied to this point is that Fedor holds the distinction of being the greatest heavyweight of all time.  



One day Brock Lesnar will surpass him in terms of important and quality wins and he will eclipse the high water mark that Fedor has established.  That day is not here yet.  No one will ever go on a 30 fight win streak in the heavyweight division of a top organization.  That simply wont happen.  



But with Fedor at the twilight of his career and seemingly on his way out, here's to a man that gave us many a great performance time and time again.  Kudos Fedor.

stickapple - Yeah cuz beating Nog, Crocop and a bunch of old skool/japanese/freakshow/gatekeeper/can/MW and LHW cans totoally proves your the best.

At this point the only thing separating Fedor and Frank Mir is that Mir actually stopped Nog and Crocop and took on harder competition throughout his career.

out of your 11 posts here, how many involve some negative spin on Fedor?

 It's complete coincidence that these two mma intellectuals start posting anti-Strikeforce/Fedor threads or posts at the same time.



Be careful, these things happen in three's.

I think Fedor's bullshit. I can tell you a lot more of my posts will involve a "realistic" spin on Fedor as well.

btw frank mir will probs go down as a UFC HOFer. so not quite sure what comparing him to fedor was meant to accomplish. however your endless rants about fedor have long since grown old.

This thread is correct. Fedor is the greatest ever.

He was the best. His time has passed due to his unwillingness to face the best competition. It puts a small smear mark on an otherwise crisp pair of whitey tighties.

Just vote the mud down and he'll get banned.........

 

Fighting - Mods: Can you fix the thread title to " Fedor is the greatest of his time " but make it past tense?





It's over fellas. He was the best during his reign. The new breed of hw would most likely dispatch him easily.





Still love the man, still a huge fan, but let's be realistic here.


I don't think you understand what the greatest of all time means.  For one, it doesn't necessarily mean that the individual is presently the greatest, it simply means that their high water mark has not been eclipsed.  Two, Fedor's accomplishments over the course of his career are far better than any other heavyweight and IMO, the very best Fedor, (about 4 or 5 years ago) would beat any other heavyweight to this point.    Like Muhammad Ali, widely accepted as the greatest of all time.  You don't actually believe that it's being implied that he could go out and win the heavyweight title right now, do you?



I look forward tot he development of the new breed heavyweights developing and improving over where they presently are.  Especially Lesnar and Cain.  Those two will undoubtedly one day be considered among the very best ever.  Right now is not that time, however.

Or you could just be a crazy paranoid Fedor zealot who still believes there is a smear campaign against a guy who can't even get more free views than Nick Diaz at this point in his career.



 Or could your boss just be mad that he can't have the best HW fighter of all time. I think he just can't come to grips that there's someone he can't buy.



If everyone knew who Fedor was, he'd sell more views than just about anyone in history. Unfortunately, he didn't have Hulk Hogan or Andre the Giant to upstart his future career. Nor does he have billions of Casino dollars behind him. Yet chumps like you still find reason to discredit him.



Why is that again ?

LOL, is Dana White paying you Mr. Shill ?


LMAO @ the current, older shot versions of Noguiera and Cro Cop being ANYTHING near the versions Fedor fought.


Just stop posting already.

 

Fedor use to be my favorite but over the years it has just gotten ridiculous. If fedor loses again, I would just cut him because this whole m1 shit is too much drama for one fighter to have

Yup. Some people are desperate for attention. Fedor is greater than the rest. Period.
