Absolutely correct. Randy doesn't even fight anymore, and if he were to unretire, and actually fight again, we don't know if he still has the ability he had the last time out. These older fighters suddenly lose it over night, without any warning. No way you can rank Randy.

That makes sense. Thanks for clarifying. You put him on the top tier with a couple other guys but can't make a distinction between those top tier guys. As Zapp wondered above, who are the other two guys on that top tier with him?

I'd have to say Arlovski and Barnett are on that top tier as well Fedor could make it his own tier, if he would prove it by fighting some of the top guys. He took Sylvia out in similar fashion to how Arlovski did, but besides that, it's been a long time since he took out a top heavyweight. His best win in years would be CroCop, but that guy went 1-2 in the UFC. He beat Mino twice years ago, we need something more recent.

Slice impressed me with his heart and will to win. Guys get in trouble all the time, and they quit. No such thing from Kimbo and he's an infant in the MMA game. As far as his complete game is concerned, he has quite a ways to go. Now Lesnar, that guy really impressed me.

Wow - this could be a new low. In fact, my first reaction was this must be fake its so outrageous. Sylvia was their champ until he lost a title fight he was winning up until that point. Like anyone was dumb enough to think Dana was actually being honest about Fedor or paying him a real compliment.

He was the champ for more than one period of time and he always fought hard. It's incredibly lame of JB to say what he said about him. Interesting that JB didn't mention that Fedor has annihilated the UFC's current champ multiple times. I guess that means Minotauro must be in the top 10 or 15 HWTs.
