Don't get me wrong, the dude is an ANIMAL... But...
1) Fedor is still alive.
2) We haven't even seen Junior's ground game. At the minute he is just a Boxer.
3) I'd favor The Reem, Hari, Wlad & Vitali, Haye and a few others over him at the moment.
4) See No.1 ;-)
1.) I love Fedor but he is not the killer he once was. Plus he's retired.
2.) that's because boxing is all he has needed so far.
3.) The Overeem fight would be a hard one to call but JDS is a brown belt in BJJ under the Nogueiras, trains with them and Anderson, Machida, etc., regularly, and we saw him take down Shane Carwin with relative ease. He'd submit Hari and the Klitchkos. The difference between a brown belt and someone who has never even grappled before is the difference of a pro boxer and a 15 year old who happens to own a pair of gloves.
He's the HW version of Chuck. Spoon-fed a bunch of grapplers and the odd striker who is a shadow of what they once were.
Haye would ruin him, IMHO. Much bigger puncher, world class head movement etc. Let alone a the K.Bros or Hari.
Junior took Carwin down, big deal. What did he do then? Sub him? Try to sub him? Try to finish the fight? No, he did nothing.
The Reem will end Junior's hype, not Cain. At least with Alistair he won the ADCC European trials. That's a MUCH bigger accomplishment than getting a Black/Brown belt from Nog.
Beats anyone in MMA on the feet,
Destroys any boxer on the ground.
(as a previous poster pointed out the difference between his ground game vs someone who has never grappled)
1-the year is 2012
2-you are retarded
Wish he would make up his mind. He's the nice guy who flys poor kids in to his fights. Now he wants to be the baddest man on the planet.
In terms of mma he is the heavyweight champ. In straight boxing the klitchko's would take him apart.
Fedor is the GOAT for me, but he's done. He's no longer the best fighter out there. Get over it already.
I would like to see JDS against a superior striker though. They are out there.
The BJJ brown belt should mean a lot, but Chuck was a D1 wrestler and Wand a BJJ black belt and they they didn't always use those secondary skills when they were up against superior strikers.
Yes he is.
Fedor is done, not even that he is retired, JDS would put Fedor down if they fought.
JDS beats any boxer simply by taking them down and beating the shit ouf of them.
So that kind of makes him the baddest dude in fighting, boxing is boxing, its not complete fighting. So JDS would kill the Klit brothers in a real fight.
Shooting doubles on the concrete? Wow...
So there's not ONE Boxer out there who hasn't got the athletic ability to avoid a TD from Junior (not like he's some world class wrestler is it?)? Crocop had the best TDD this sport has ever seen and he was a Kickboxer!
Anderson Silva is still alive.....

Right back at ya!
JetSetter - No he is not!
I am usually right and I am telling you now that JDS hype will come to an end after Cain beats him.
That's some good humor, you should be a comedian
If David Haye turned to MMA for the remainder of his career and dedicated properly to the techniques necessary to utilise his boxing effectively, I would shit my pants with excitement.
^^ would easily be the baddest man on the planet.
The baddest man on the planet is Anderson Silva.
You all have it wrong, Hendo is the baddest man on the planet!
