Rank these 12 fighters based on overall striking skills

Saw this on FB and the casuals were hilarious. Mf’ers putting Conor at 1 and Dustin at 10 or even 11/12

Petr Yan is the best boxer in the ufc. He’s lightning fast too and has good kicks as well

AP over Izzy cause power matters and he’s not only out-point Izzy, but KO/TKO him twice too. AP seems to be far better with his hands than Izzy. Izzy is too tentative with his hands and always looks terrified to let them fly

Sean O’Lucky and Stephen thompson are tough to judge. SO’L was gifted a decision in which he got Out struck by the man I put at 1. And I’ll admit I just don’t know much about karate or much care about it so figuring out his position was tough

Jones should be at 12.

Thats actually a good list maybe I would put Volk over Izzy.

And then Peireira is hard to deny right now but we simply haven’t seen that much of him. But he was outpointed by Izzy in 3 rounds iirc and had a pretty close fight with this no name before Strickland.

He’s never knocked anyone out standing. Has a massive reach advantage over everyone he’s ever beat. But he’s definitely skilled

If he out-strikes Gane, Stipe, Francis, Sergei etc. I’ll be massively impressed

Another reason I put AP over Izzy is because I don’t think Izzy would KO Sean Strickland in the first round
The way AP did

If I had made this graphic I would have not included Rob, JBJ or Thompson and instead would have had Anderson Silva, Jose Aldo and BJ Penn

That would have made it interesting

Whitaker 12? You on some next level crack my friend

Do we need more than 2 finishes to put him over Izzy?

Striking is a little tough though, a small zig instead of a zag is all the difference needed for a KO
