If you don't like it then I'm so sorry if I angered your poor little fingers enough to type such an emotional response. But thats just my opinion Jimmy John Jacob, it's not set in stone or anything so calm urself, have a drink and relax.

^^^ LOL so because I post a response disagreeing with your opinion I'm emotional and angry? Have you people ever heard of a debate or that people are allowed to have a different opinion than yours? People on these boards kill me sometimes when you post something disagreeing with what they post you are angry and emotional LOL

GL Jeff. That post with the 10 points was the stupidest post I've seen in a while. Don Frye summed it up nicely.
You can't look at who a fighter has fought and look what they've done after, because as you saw, it can make any fighter's resume look like horse shit. Fedor has fought the highest ranked fighters he could besides his fights in Japan, and wow, why'd he do that? Oh yeah, he cares about the fans

That being said, Fedor has shown throughout his career he is among the best regardless of who he has fought recently. I think that's more affecting his legacy and not his p4p status. | i wish i could take the neg back i gave you the other day, because this post was awesome.

LMAO you can't be serious. | He never said Brock could never be p4p champ. If Brock comes out and shows decent stand up with a couple knockouts and some good BJJ then yes he can be p4p. But simply using size and weight advantages to win fights is not a skill and should get you no where on a p4p list.

They are both pretty much the same size. I'm sorry but you can't downplay what some does because they are naturally bigger. Its not his fault the weight class is what it is. HW division is 265 he fights at 265. I don't even like the dude but if he continues dominating the way he is IMO he is going to rise up the P4P list.

There is no skill in being bigger than someone and just smothering them, and that's what p4p measures... skill. Like I said in my last post... once he starts sharpening up his stand up and BJJ he will be a p4p great.
