| Will Leben ever make it to the top?
My friend just started to get into mma with the beggining of the ultimate fighters, so thats who he knws. Although there are some gd fighters that have come off of ult fighter i keep telling him lebens not one of them. He disagrees. My point.... Leben vs Silva...nuff said. Leben will always be a stepping stone.

Yeh, everybody who starts watching MMA for the first time, should be told the history and they should see early MMA tapes to get a grasp of who and what the best looks like. Leban is a good fighter but not the best.

Leben's decent in the clinch,is good on the ground, has very heavy hands and a great chin.He just got caught by a world class striker in Anderson Silva.It happens.He's only 26 and is still improving.He makes a few adjustments to his stand up and he'll have a decent carear.He's an exciting fighter and isn't going anywhere anytime soon.

I know leben is decent but eventually champ...no way. Silva desryoyed him...not beat...DESRYOYED!!!!! And look what Franklin did to Quarry. A few of the ultimate fighters may become great but most will just be mediocre....like leben. Name a top guy Leben could beat. Franklin, Silva, cmon. No chance.
