| Who do you think is (or should be) a Blackbelt in the UFC?
The topic seems to be pretty popular with the word being thrown around alot, so I thought this might be interesting.
Post who you think (in the UFC) is(or should be) a legit Blackbelt. Now by Legit, i dont mean post every source to the 100 fighters that got them, I mean who do YOU think deserves theres, or who should have one?
HW:
NOG
Mir
GG
LHW:
Shogun
lil Nog
MW:
Maia
Mcdonald
Palhares
Marquardt
Almeida
WW:
Hazelett
Serra
LW:
Bj Penn
Florian
Cole miller should have one(but IMO hes taking the proper route)
Nate Diaz should have one, but again IMO hes going about it the right way
Thats my UFC Blackbelt list, Im sure if I really sat down and thought I could make some changes but this is just a quick 5 minute list
Now I dont claim to know everything about MMA so im sure people will have their issues, but please post your list first before flaming mine

although i like this topic, it requires too much thinking so i'll just agree with your list.

lol yeah a lot of thinking , but IMHO, and i'm no expert but I do take BJJ and have seen some crappy black belts, Nate Diaz, Big Nog, Penn. I just found a source that said Nate has his Blackbelt which I was unaware of. I thought he was a brown belt. If he isn't, he should be.
I'm fairly certain wikipedia is incorrect on this and Nate is a brown Belt. He is the best brown belt i've ever seen. lol
Found another source that says Nate earned his black belt. Here it is, it's a forum though so take it's for what it's worth. Rashad Evans gets a BJJ Black Belt?!! - Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Gear Forums

I think the original MA doesn't always make a good MMA fighter, but the new form of black belt includes a mix thous the name MMA. Thoughts? | lol I honestly don't understand the post.
