Brock - forgot about him. I think that he may be making his debut a bit too soon, there is more to mma than wrestling skills. But he is a machine and was one of the best wrestlers in the world while in college. He and Fedor are the same age, so if he can string together 10 or 11 wins in the next few years against legit opponents, it would lead to a great fn fight.

Right now, I think the only guy is Sylvia. Although Fedor owns him right now, Sylvia continues to get better and fitter and has a strong ethic with great teammates. His size could keep Fedor off him enough that Fedor could get caught by some strong shots. Although I would most likely bet all my money and my house on Fedor any day of the week, the only guy that creates any type of mismatch in any category is Sylvia.


Oh, one more thought - is Ivan Drago still around?

zulu!!!!!

.....no just kidding. I really don't know. for all who think barnett can beat fedor, you guys smoke crack. barnett's hands are nowhere near the level of fedor's. did you guys see alexander work him on the stand up? crocop stands a chance. wand may be able to do it.

I think if he starts working at HW again shogun could seriously stand a chance of beating him but he needs experience at HW.

if wanderlei beats cro cop and beats eaither nog or barnett, he would be the biggest threat to fedor even thought he isnt hw, but there isnt a realy size diffenence, fedor is only 1 inch taller and weighs 233, but has atleast 15 pounds of fat that he could cut off, then he would be like the same weight at wanderlei.

No way in hell barnett wuold even come close. u kidding? he wont even make it to the final round in OWGP. and even if he does, he will get beat. shogun is the one in my mind who cuold beat fedor. even know i think he belongs in middleweight where he was.

Your an ass. You're goign to dissmiss my claim that Barnett would have a legit chance at beating Fedor as ignorance yet you are saying that Shogun who is not a top 4 HW in the world like Barnett would have a legit chance?

Yes Yes, Barnett would not come close, becasue you like the other knob for some reason think Barnett would stand and strike against Fedor... Barnet is a WRESTER smart guy, not a striker, a WORLD CLASS WRESTLER who weights more than Fedor, is as quick as Fedor and is just as good of a wrestler as Fedor and has great submissions as well. And is also in the best shape of his life, even Cro Cop has acknowledged the fact that Barnett is in phenominal shape and is looking very difficult to beat right now, funny you haven't.

No I think you may be smoking crack to think that a world class wrestler like Barnett would stand and trade with Fedor.... Did you not see Barnett handle Hunt with ease in 2 minutes?

I like Shogun but he would not stand much of a chance vs Fedor, he would get grounded then pounded out.

wow not sure if any mentioned him in the underrated category but they damn well should have. I know his last fight was in WFA is he contracted with them or was it just a one fight deal? If he is with them he will be there champ for as long as he wants to be. Dunno if he could hang with Fedor but the dude has a very impressive record with wins over Tiger White,BJ,Ace and Bonnar i mean shit thats a helluva start to a career, why the hell isnt this guy in UFC or Pride?

if he stays winnin' I think in due time he could hang with Fedor, I mean he dominated Rich Franklin and Rich has heavy hands.. Lyoto knocked him out pretty much.
