i gotta go with sakuraba too... just so many interesting match ups for him if he was still in his prime.

people like wand and crocop imo are not out of their prime...

that's the problem with fickle fans now, you lose 2 fights in a row and all of a sudden you're washed up. everyone loses but wand and mirko are only like 32 or so and probably have a few years left in them if they choose.

i think within the next year or so we'll be able to tell if crocop's and wand's best days are behind them.. right now its too soon to tell. hell, people were saying chuck was washed up until he beat silva.. everyone, no matter how good, will fall in a slump here and there.. doesn't mean they're finished or pass their prime especially when their loses are to top 10 guys in their division.

This is all assuming that they are fighting with the same skills they had in their prime.

i was thinking of saku too

but i have to give it to frank mir... mir of the old would sub lesnar quickly. He had a dangerous bjj game... hopefully he still does... the hardonk fight was an indication of that although hardonk was stinking it up lol

Ricco Rodriguez, he was robbed against Nog and could give anyone run for their money if he would get in shape.
