FEATURE: The Five Greatest MMA Champions Of All-Time
Posted on May 20, 2011
#1 Anderson Silva/Fedor Emelianenko:
There’s no way I can call one of these two fighters better than the other. Emelianenko ruled the heavyweight division for nearly 10 years. He destroyed the likes of Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira, Andrei Arlovski, Mark Coleman, Tim Sylvia, and Semmy Schilt, just to name a few. This man did not lose a fight for a staggering 28 bout stretch. If that’s not amazing, I don’t know what is. As for Anderson Silva, he is today’s real life action hero. Unorthodox maneuvers that most wouldn’t dare attempt often result in highlight reel finishes for Silva. He’s been so amazing that it seems every challenger to battle Silva has mentally lost the fight before even stepping into the cage. Legitimate contenders are becoming a genuine rarity. Silva hasn’t lost a bout in five years; he’s amassed an astonishing 13 straight victories under the UFC banner, and he’s battered all comers, fighting the distance only twice in those thirteen bouts. Amongst Silva’s recent victims are Vitor Belfort, Chael Sonnen, Forrest Griffin and Demian Maia. The only question left for Anderson is: will he get his super fight with welterweight king Georges St. Pierre?
