Fedor isn't very good at passing guard.

Fihlo is great, and Varner passed BJJ black belt Franca like he was an amateur WAR VARNER

everyone will jump all over this but diego is incredibly quick and fluid on the ground. Actually I think his stamina really helps in that area later in fights. The Diaz fight was a great example.

I don't think people will jump all over ya on this one. I don't think Diego is the best at passing but it doesn't call for jumping on ya, because he is respectable.
I still go with Filho like I said in my first post, it NEVER seems like that man is in guard, so he must be passing.

I think Fedor is a tough call as where he can very easily pound people in guard where he seems comfortable as well as pass guard seamlessly when he sees the right opening.

I just don't see him constantly looking to pass due to his comfort in full guard.

Believe it or not I have to agree that Diego and GSP are right up at the top of that list. I haven't seen quite enough Filho fights to accurately give him a rating on this.

Jake O'brien, or he looked pretty damn good after his last fight.

Fedor could move from his opponents guard to a submission quicker than anyone in the game.
