Who is the true #1 heavyweight? NOBODY!

[drop toe hold]

well never know who is number one, by the time randy fights fedor he will be older and have ring rust, if randy wins people will say barnett beat him

[The Man In Black]

If big nog beats sylvia I would say he is number one right now. You cant say barnett because his last fight he had was a loss to nog and that was a year ago and hes been inactive since then. I personally will always think fedor unless he loses is the true best but its not fair to say hes number one if he keeps facing a bunch of cans.

Until Fedor fights any top HWs he hasn't faced yet (Couture, Barnett, Arlovski), all we can go on is his stellar reputation thus far; the rest is speculation. As of right now, I say he'd beat Couture and Barnett (but it wouldn't be easy), and get KO'd by AA.

[The Man In Black]

I thnk AA could knock fedor out if he goes to his old form. Right now he looks like he just tries to score points and that hinders him because his biggest asset when he was champion was his aggression.

I agree something must be done with the F word.

I think the mods or admins should make a word censor for Fedor Instead of reading "Fedor",when someone types his name in a post,it should be censored to "Not Worth Discussing".

I say Barnett, I believe he can beat Fedor, Nog and Couture on any given day (not on the same day.).

I don´t really care about rankings but i very much agree. Like i said in some other thread, skillwise Barnett could be the best p4p fighter in the world.

[Krazikarl]

I'll say Nogs is #1 if he wins. If he doesnt its a mess. If Couture unretires hes probably #1.

Barnett didnt fight in 2007 and his last win was against Pawel Nastula (how the hell did this fight get sanctioned anyway - it was in the US and Nastula was 1-2), so you cant take him that seriously. He split his fights against Nogs, but his win was a split decision and his loss was unanimous, so slight edge Nogs.

here in the next few months i think that we may have a couple that would have a legit arguement. by the end of the year im saying andrei!!!!!

[Diaz420]

I could care less who are what in the HW rankings. It sucks that Fedor and Randy are each in their situations but o well...I don't really think at this level there is one stand out HW all are worthy in my eyes. I just want to get shit faced drunk and watch them beat the hell out of eachother. I mean I can see anyone of the guys beating one guy yet losing to another guy.

Yes, because it's not like AA didn't just lose twice to sylvia...

It makes so much sense that a one time Youth World Sambo Champ with a 12 and 5 MMA record with a Glass chin is so much better then the current 4 time Adult Sambo World Champ, a Russian National Judo Medalist, and the most dominating MMA HW champ in any org with a 28 and 1 record whose only loss was from an illegal blow that created a cut...

I wouldn't mind if people bashed Fedor in an intelligent way, but... nevermind, I guess the only negative thing anyone can say about Fedor is that he didn't signe with UFC... An org where a retired LHW who got ktfo in his last fight and previously sucked as a HW came in and dominated this "top competition"... go ahead... go back to acting like retards.
