Mousasi has some sick striking but like fedorlei, I rather him at mw. Wrestling is too good among the top 5 lhw fighters. Only dude I'd honestly give a chance at, is shogun. Shogun needs to retire if he performs how he's been doing recently, he should retire. If you're no longer hungry, hang em up. Shogun was one of my favorites if not my most favorite fighter but he's depressing to watch now.
Mousasi is a monster at mw, I would love to see a stand up battle with him and Silva.

After all, Anderson probably wouldn't take a fight with him either.

I will never understand people's love affair with this guy. He has never seemed "above the cut" in my eyes, certainly not a threat to Silva with his striking at MW. I just dont understand why some people keep holding him up like he is the next big thing.

If he starts fighting top talent on a regular basis we will see where he really is at.

Give him any of the top 5-7 MW in the UFC and IMO he loses 80% or more of those fights
