MMA Most Valuable Fighter (2012)[107]. one lucky punch does not change what he has done !

He is the best, he will beat Weidman and then probably retire, and then Vitor Belfort will take the title.

Is that you Father?

He is one of the best. It is hard to name a number one due to: the weight classes and more importantly the newness of the sport. MMA hasn't been around for that long. The level of competition is increasing. Weight classes are growing deeper. Fighters are becoming well versed in all ascpects of martial arts. That said I'd name him, Fedor, Royce Gracie, and Chuck Liddell on my MMA Mount Rushmore.

He is one of the best but the fight with Weidman was no fluke. Will be a good rematch to see who takes the belt.

i agree ! vitor has been real good lately

it was just like when Matt Serra beat gsp ! a fluke!

weidman was definitely a Fluke.... silva was fuckin around... then got clipped right on the button! lol

their rematch is going to be sick.....

i also think GSP could beat hendricks no doubt... he may have looked fucked up but hendricks wasnt dominating shit.

i agree about silva but gsp didnt look too good in that fight i thought hendricks won 3 rounds

He really is the best pound for pound fighter of all time. He just rips dudes apart and after a single round of fighting he knows what you are going to do before you even do it.
