Who do you think is the BEST TUF winner of all time?
 
I was thinkin about it the other day, and I just wanted to see what everyone's opinion was. Don't just base your opinion on where they are at now, but overall skills and potential.

I didn't add the "comeback" winners.

i voted for forrest, for me he has been involed in some great fights and has a lot of talent and deserves his title shot,

1 more thing is there no love for serra or Lutter from TUF 4, i know lutter is a total tool, for the chance he got and could not make weight, but serra looked impressive and beat GSP

I agree. To me, Serra would be #1. Afterall, he did win the WW title in impressive fashion. If he beats Hughes, I think its hands down.

If you don't include season 4, I'd go Forrest and Rashad.

Forrest without a doubt.... and dispite the 2 losses in a row, i might have to say Deigo, but i voted for forrest

Rashad, Forrest, Kenny Florian, Diego.

You can't really count TUF 4 because they're vets, hardly up and comers like the rest of the seasons. And Matt Serra's a middle to lower tiered guy. He was before TUF and will be after, he just needs a few more fights before he's gone again.

Best winner, I'd say Rashad because he's still undefeated. I'd like to see Forrest and Rashad fight after the Rampage fight.

Forrest or Joe Stevenson because they both grow from tuf fighters to both being title contenders and deservingly so.

Forrest

Best skill wise... definately Travis Lutter.... His skills are unsurpassed, but his conditioning blows... Lutter has all the tools to beat A. Silva and Franklin, but it's always his CONDITIONING that gets the better of him. Travis Lutter with good conditioning = threat to the MW division. To bad that wont happen, 2nd, i think Forrest. Why not.

i was thinking it was forrest in terms of the caliber of fighter he's beaten, but now i'm thinking skill wise after his last performance, it would have to be diego.
