|  Best Guard in MMA?
Who has the best guard in MMA? Not just UFC, but all of MMA.
I know this has been done before in the main section, but I'm bored and figured it merits another run. And I hope there will be less retarded comments since this is the Grappling section.
I left out a few options, like Pe De Pano since his guard is legendary in Jiu-Jitsu competition but less than stellar in MMA.
If there is someone I missed, just post it and I will add them to the poll.

You've put Aoki on there twice... which just makes sense as he has without a doubt the best guard in MMA.
Second place I'd say Big Nog.

Marcelo's first MMA fight is tomorrow night for K-1.
Last I heard, Roger beat Ron Waterman in Bodog and participated in this year's Abu Dhabi.
