The Top 15 MMA Fighters in the World

July 18th, 2008

It’s time to countdown the top 15 fighters in the sport of mixed martial arts. We grouped in the best fighters from all different divisions and all different organizations to compile the list of the top 15 fighters in the world. There will be some surprises and some guarantees as MMAcrunch brings you the latest list featuring the best of the best.

15. Lyoto Machida
Machida has yet to lose a professional fight and is coming off a unanimous victory over the legendary Tito Ortiz. He needs to snare a few more quality victories before he can rise through the ranks. Saturday night’s match-up against Thiago Silva is a good start. In the crowded light heavyweight division of the UFC, Machida has his work cut out for him.

14. Paulo Filho
No fighter has gone the distance with Filho in his last nine fights. He currently boasts a 16-0 record as the WEC Middleweight champion. Thus far in his career, Filho has steamrolled over the competition, although that competition will need to get better if he hopes to continue his rise. Filho’s next opponent is Chael Sonnen, not exactly a household name.

13. Mauricio Rua
All of the sudden, Rua’s previous loss to Forrest Griffin doesn’t seem so bad. Injury has currently sidelined Rua as it looks as though he won’t return to the octagon until December at best. Now, Rua’s past victory over Quinton Jackson seems like a distant memory. Coming back from injury, Rua will have to re-establish himself in the high competitive UFC light heavyweight division.

12. Miguel Torres
We can’t compile such a list without a Bantamweight fighter from the WEC. In that division, there is none better than Miguel Torres. Torres is the true definition of warrior and hasn’t lost a bout since 2003. His impressive 34-1 record compels him to rank among the very best in the sport of mixed martial arts. A Torres-Faber showdown would be huge for the WEC, if Torres decides to bump up in class in the future.

11. Antonio Rogerio Nogueira
While Nogueira has dropped two out of his last four fights, he still remains a very dangerous fighter. The Brazilian Jiu-jitsu artist is capable of beating anyone on any given night. Nogueira will likely make Edwin Dewees his next victim at Affliction: Banned, And if he stays with Affliction, he could emerge as one of the organization’s top fighters.

10. Quinton Jackson
What a difference a couple of weeks makes. Jackson has gone from one of the top fighters in the UFC to a man struggling to maintain his sanity. While he is still a very formidable fighter, one has to question how the past week’s events will affect his future. Jackson will have more to overcome quite a bit on his way back to the top of the light heavyweight division.

9. Chuck Liddell
Liddell is now in the driver’s seat as far as getting a shot at the UFC light heavyweight championship. If he can get past Rashad Evans, he will likely earn the right to take on Forrest Griffin. Notwithstanding his troubles against Rampage Jackson, Liddell has pretty much had his way with the light heavyweight division. If Jackson is out of the picture for a bit, it could bode well for Liddell.

8. Jon Fitch
The opportunity to climb up to the top of the list awaits Fitch as a date with Georges St. Pierre is less than a month away. Fitch is quite a stranger to defeat, not having lost since 2003. He’ll bring in a string of 14 straight victories and an undefeated UFC record when he faces GSP. For Fitch, there won’t be a more golden opportunity to thrust his name atop of the UFC.

7. Urijah Faber
All Faber seems to do is dominate every opponent that faces him. He owns a 16-1 record and hasn’t really been challenged as of late. Jens Pulver did an adequate job of just being able to finish the fight. In that fight, Faber showed a more complete game and tattooed Pulver when the two were not on the mat. Faber’s reign has the potential to be long lived.

6. Forrest Griffin
There has been no fighter whose stock is rising more rapidly. Griffin validated his worth when he dismantled Rampage Jackson, giving him two very impressive victories in a row. Now, the light heavyweights must stand in line for the chance to test Griffin. However, they must bring everything they have as Griffin has proven he can not only dish out pain, but he can also take his lumps.

5. Randy Couture
The bad blood between Couture and the UFC is no secret. It has put his career into a standstill, however Couture still has to be recognized as a dangerous fighter. Until these squabbles can be resolved and until someone defeats the current UFC Heavyweight champion, he still has to be considered among the best in the sport, regardless of where he winds up fighting.

4. BJ Penn
At this point, Penn is arguably the best lightweight in the sport of mixed martial arts. He has settled in nicely and reeled off three straight quality wins over high caliber opponents. Avenging his last loss to Matt Hughes may not even be in the cards for Penn as of now. For the time being, he is the man to beat in the UFC lightweight division. Every top contender now seems to jockeying for the chance to square off against Penn.

3. Anderson Silva
Making the jump to the light heavyweight division could enable Silva to become the best fighter in the game. He has run through the ranks of the middleweight division but will have a stiffer challenge as the competition among the light heavys is ferocious. He’ll get his start this weekend while hoping to provide more evidence as to why he should be considered the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world.

Anderson Silva Highlights:

2. Fedor Emelianenko
He still can’t speak English, but Fedor can sure fight. He’ll get the chance to show his dominance once more against Tim Sylvia at Affliction: Banned. Fedor hasn’t lost since the turn of the century and remains one of the most feared fighters in the sport. Yet, until he fights in the sport’s most elite organization, he still cannot be considered the best.

Fedor Emelianenko Highlights:

1. Georges St. Pierre
GSP is at the top of his game right now. His list of casualties keeps getting more impressive and he will hope to add Jon Fitch to that list next month. The UFC Welterweight champion has a complete, all-around game and his training has only intensified in recent months. For anyone to dethrone GSP, they will have to be at their absolute best. As of now, St.Pierre is the best of the best in the sport of mixed martial arts.

Georges St. Pierre Highlights:

    You put Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira at #11 and said he will be fighting at the Affliction show, but that is actually his brother (Antonio ROGERIO Nogueira) fighting at Affliction. So I’m not sure if you meant ROGERIO or RODRIGO. And if you did mean ROGERIO from Affliction, how could you not put RODRIGO in your top 15. He is the UFC heavyweight champ. In other words I think you’re thinking of the wrong Nogueira brother.

    No offense, but not having Big Nog in the list at all, while having his brother ranked speaks volumes of your MMA knowledge. Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira is the Interim UFC HW champ, was a long standing HW champ in Pride, has never been submitted or knocked out, and has only lost to 3 elite fighters, and only Fedor has a unanimous decision against him.

  5. Derek
    July 22nd, 2008 at 00:37 | #5

    Bro GSP over Fedor are you crazy? And whats Bj.Penn doing at 4 the list should go as followed Fedor, Anderson, BJ, then GSP did you not see GSP get knocked out by Matt Serra or his controversial win against the prodigy and where is Kid? Not bad but false everybody knows Fedor > Everything.

    July 22nd, 2008 at 00:40 | #6

    Randy Couture is in his 40s and still has it. Couture vs Tim Silvia, what a fantastic fight! Randy is still wearing that belt as far as I’m concerned.

    you say “Saturday night’s match-up against Thiago Silva is a good start.” Saturday three months from now you mean. Also you dont even have Gomi in there, but you have jon fitch?

  8. July 22nd, 2008 at 00:42 | #8

    Anderson Silva #3?! Are you kidding me? He owns the #1 spot. No other man in MMA has the spirit, the willpower, charisma, The class. He’s fluid with his strikes it’s like second nature to him. It’s like watching violent ballet. This top 15 is only based rank I believe. If this was about the fighters there would be no argument, silva would be #1. That is all.

    July 22nd, 2008 at 00:49 | #9

    You are obviously a casual, lightweight MMA fan. Not having Fedor #1 makes that pretty apparent. What, you’re going to put a guy who lost his first title defense against Matt Serra ABOVE a guy who has only lost once, and that being due to his eye being cut? Get serious. Any average forum poster on Sherdog.com knows about 10X more than you.

  10. drew
    July 22nd, 2008 at 00:50 | #10

    ughh yeah… dumb.

    Fedor is #1. Then Anderson, BJ and GSP. Fedor only ever lost once because of a cut.. give me a break..

  11. what a joke

    shouldn’t Quintin be ahead of Lidell? he always beats up Lidell (not very important).

    All of the MMA fighters are extremely talented so it really hard to rank them even when some of them should share the same rank.

    Also doesn’t Frank Shamrock fight? Last i heard he was really good too, but he’s not on the list.

  13. wrong
    July 22nd, 2008 at 01:01 | #13

    to put GSP at number 1 is ridiculous especially because anderson silva is widely known as the best pound for pound fighter in the world. Fedor also should rank higher. you should actually put time into researching the subject before writing next time.

  14. bigk
    July 22nd, 2008 at 01:12 | #14

    That is correct Fedor > everybody. His loss isnt really even a loss as far as im concerned, anyone can get cut. Anderson and fedor are the two best IMO

  15. Thomas
    July 22nd, 2008 at 01:13 | #15

    everyone knows that fedor is the best .. just beat up tim silvia in 42 sec .. no one .. i mean no one can take out fedor at this moment !!!

  16. Steve
    July 22nd, 2008 at 01:15 | #16

    Definitely some great fighters on the list. I don’t know if you meant for the ordering to represent their skills, I find it hard to compare fighters in different weight classes.

    But as far as just the Top 15 (w/o ordering), it seems to be a very valid list.

  17. Cody
    July 22nd, 2008 at 01:29 | #17

    Uhh… Yeah GSP lost to Matt Serra. Sure, he didn’t take him seriously, but that’s what separates GSP from Fedor. Fedor is a cyborg sent from God who destroys everything in his path even on a bad day. GSP is a Canadian who lost to a worthless kid from New England with a Napoleon complex. Think about it.

    And oh yeah Anderson Silva wins every fight he fights convincingly. To illustrate the point:
    When GSP fought BJ, GSP spent the night they fought in a hospital. Meanwhile BJ was out at bars partying. It was a win, a very close win, on the judge’s scorecards only.

    Uhm, how is it that Big Nog isnt on this list? you do realize he probably has one of the best records in MMA right? you do realize the only reason he hasnt been ranked the #1 HW for the last several years is because of Fedor right? he should be above couture, for christs sake.

    not to take anything away from lil Nog, but hes barely considered top 10 most of the time, sometimes not at all.

    there are plenty of other things wrong with this list, but making that big of a mistake invalidates it entirely

  23. Warren Slater
    July 22nd, 2008 at 02:15 | #23

    Without question Fedor Emelianenko number 1 due to the fact none of the fighters listed have dominated with such a presence and ease over time and where is rickson gracie? if not one of the most skilled fighters ever with a record to proove it.

  24. Cory Danelson
    July 22nd, 2008 at 02:21 | #24

    July 22nd, 2008 at 02:35 | #25

    Fedor Is a clear number one unlike everyone else on the list he has never lost, NEVER. He was forced to take a no contest in tournament because he was cut in the fight before just like eddie alvarez had to due last night in DREAM 5. GSP got knocked out by Matt Serra and submitted by matt hughes.

    Fedor #1 for sure, then silva. what kind of fantasy list is this? F. Shamrock? not any more dude.If you’d consider him, then you’d have to put in Kung lee too. just like boxing. only the top 3 or 4 make much sense. everyone else can be switched all over the place. Fedor has my vote 100%.

  28. almcg2
    July 22nd, 2008 at 03:34 | #28

    for the guy who through in bruce lee. sorry dude…. he was a pioneer, but what you saw was movie stunts. the light weight guys would take him out fast these days. martial arts have moved on. this new breed is way beyond the pioneers. even i know it and i’ve bee deep in the arts and contact side for almost 40 years. at my best, when i started kickboxing in 75′and went undefeated for years, this new breed would rip me up. sometimes we just have to admit the way things are and move on. these kids are excellent martial artists and in way better shape then most of their predecessors. are all the kicks and punches beautiful? no…. but extremely effective. drop the white night kung fu fantasies and move on. the arts have changed forever. no more BS masters. now it’s be real or shut your lying face. a lot of people spent a lot of money over the years on pretty weak martial arts classes and learned some great flips and jump kicks. got ripped off. these new guys are 100% real.

    July 22nd, 2008 at 04:16 | #29

    This list is actually decent, but I disagree on a few points. Here’s my list:

    Best MMA Fighters, Pound for Pound
    1. Georges St. Pierre
    2. Fedor Emelianenko
    3. Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira
    4. Lyoto Machida
    5. BJ Penn
    6. Wanderlei Silva
    7. Anderson Silva
    8. Urijah Faber
    9. Yoshihiro Akiyama
    10. Quinton Jackson

    I think it should look something like that, obviously things can be moved around, and a lot of people would disagree with Machida being so high, Anderson being a little low, and Akiyama?… but I think this list is fairly solid as to who you should be talking about in the p4p conversation. Forrest’s name should not be brought up, neither should Randy Couture’s. Besides those two, and the Rogerio pick, (was there some confusion?) this list looks pretty good to me, I especially agree with the top two.

    July 22nd, 2008 at 06:00 | #30

    no.1-fedor
    no.2-randy
    no.3-minotauro
    no.4-wanderlei silva
    no.5-crocop

    after demolishing sylvia,maybe people would start understanding how good fedor really is…and any mma top fighters without crocop or wand is just a joke…

  31. asur
    July 22nd, 2008 at 06:11 | #31

    fedor should be number one and after that the cro-cop

    1: Fedor

    2-infinity: Everyone else.

  39. July 22nd, 2008 at 08:48 | #39

    That’s a pretty messed up list man.
    Top 5 should be:
    1 - Fedor
    2 - Anderson Silva
    3 - BJ Penn
    4 - GSP
    5 - Kimbo Slice…. :P J/K Lyoto Machida

    You managed to mkae me laugh with some of your coments though, so thanks.
    Forrest “dismantling” rampage. Fedor not speaking english and not fighting in the most “elite” organization, hahaha, he’d have any UFC fighter for breakfast and pick his teeth with the bones of the next challenger in line. Even though Randy is one of my favorite fighters, he’s way too high.

    Nie try though.

    @NoobishReporting…
    No doubt. I am sick of the warped unbalanced view of MMA here in the states. Where the falk is Kid? Falking Kimbo Slice has a better chance of making this list than anybody fighting in Dream or Affliction. Sadness.

    July 22nd, 2008 at 11:15 | #42

    Takanori Gomi? Did that name just slip through? Jon Fitch and Lyoto Machida don’t make the list, they have not beaten anyone worth a crap. To say that Fedor is not fighting in the most elite organization is a serious mistake. The UFC may be the greediest the most arrogant and the least liked organization by fighters but the most elite it is not. Fedor does not want to fight in the UFC because the contract he was offered was unacceptable for a fighter considered world wide as the best. If you want to see a truly elite organization watch Dream on HDNet. The list is as follows:
    1. Fedor Emelianenko
    2. Randy Couture
    3. Anderson Silva
    4. Georges St. Pierre
    5. Antonio Rogerio Nogueira
    6. Quinton Jackson
    7. BJ Penn
    8. Chuck Liddel
    9. Forrest Griffin
    10. Urijah Faber
    11. Mauricio Rua
    12. Frank Shamrock
    13. Takanori Gomi
    14. Hayato Sakurai
    15a. Joachim Hansen
    15b. Shinya Aoki

    “Yet, until he fights in the sport’s most elite organization, he still cannot be considered the best.” You are a rookie. An ounce of familiarity with the sport would tell you that UFC’s heavyweight division is paper thin and it’s champion is a man Fedor destroyed convincingly TWICE! If it’s division is so elite, why did you omit Rodrigo Noguiera? Bobby Deren, I’m going to remember your name as someone who likes to state his opinion without regard to being informed.

    Who ever said Cro Cop hasnt been watching mma for awhile now. Cro Cop never wins anymore.

    i agree with what a lot of ppl have been saying.

    1 Fedor/Silva
    2 Fedor/Silva
    3 Penn
    4 GSP

    who is this author? worst top 15 list i have ever seen.

  45. umm
    July 22nd, 2008 at 11:39 | #45

    Fedor is NOT #1, Couture would destroy him.

    Anderson clearly proved he was the best pound for pound fighter on Saturday.

  46. PixelAFECT
    July 22nd, 2008 at 13:32 | #46

    Really? No one wants to mention Carlos Condit, the current Welterweight champ? Maybe it’s too early for him to be on the list, but his record is impressive, and if you watch this guy fight you’ll understand.

    He’s a BEAST.

  47. Brett
    July 22nd, 2008 at 14:46 | #47

    I’m not goint to bash the list much because everyone always does that to lists. This list is some what right concerning north american fighters. But what about
    1. Rashad Evans? He has 16 fights and and never lost one yet.
    2. Randy Couture would beat Fedor
    3. Even though I’m happy to see GSP at number 1 and even though he’s my favorite fighter of all time…Anderson Silva should be #1.
    4. You guys talking about Mirco Krokop dont know anything. He as a wicked kick and is a stand up guy but he also has a glass jaw. Everytime he goes down, he goes down the same way.
    5. Thank you for not putting Kimbo “The Tapper” Slice on this list.

    All these guys saying that UFC figthers are second rate should take a look at all the drugs used in the asian leagues - wether its steroids, hormone therapies or HGH. It’s rampant and un-regulated - its why guys like Cro-Cop did so well in Pride and suffered so quickly after their rehab breaks prior to showing up to the ufc.

    July 22nd, 2008 at 15:21 | #50

    AS big a fan as I am of GSP, his fall / and re-rise weren’t against fitting opponents (serra and hughes are has-beens). When he successfully defends the belt against a guy with the caliber of Fitch it will be a lock. Until then, questionable.

  51. Daniel
    July 22nd, 2008 at 16:05 | #51

    Fedor is #1 in the world now. Rampage should be ahead of Chuck. Nogueira is too low, and Randy is too high. Fitch is also too high.

    Sorry. The list is inaccurate.

  52. July 22nd, 2008 at 16:08 | #52

    Fedor for sure is number 1 on the list. An like others said you def have the wrong Nog in there. Silva easily the second best, and if he fights a few more quality fighters he could even surpass Fedor eventually.

  53. July 22nd, 2008 at 20:59 | #53

    Fedor may not have fought in the world’s most famous organizations but he sure have beaten some of their most famous fighters. This should not prevent him from being dubbed the #1 MMA fighter.

    Fedor is the best MMA fighter of all time, you seem to think that UFC is the best organization , but this guy have beaten every champs except Couture who would have lost against him anyway. Only a powerful striker could beat him with a lucky punch, no grappling, no ground and pound could defeat him. Pride had the best heavyweight fighters. He beat them all.

  58. IMO
    August 11th, 2008 at 12:59 | #58

    Fedor or Silva obviously should hold the #1 spot. Fedor is the most successful fighter the MMA world has ever seen, and Silva has evolved into the most methodical fighter in MMA history. To compare these two is extemely difficult. Fedor fans focus strictly on his unprecedented record, while Silva fans seem to only watch the UFC. Look at both fighters NOW. Silva and Fedor are in a league of their own, clearly. While Fedor has a much more impressive history, Silva has been much more impressive recently/currently when considering the higher level of competition he has torn apart. I truly could not even begin to compare these two NOW, and most that have are way too biased to do so with any objectivity.

    Not having Rodrigo Nogueira on this list clearly indicates that the entire list was written by a clueless hack. He holds the best MMA record over the most top ten fighters in the world in any division. He has never been knocked out or submitted. He has never been ranked below #3 in his division. Why don’t u put sean gannon and kimbo slice in there as well?

    FEDOR #1…..

    If you honestly think Fedor isn’t deserving of #1 IN THE WORLD, NOT ONLY MMA, then you need to get off the nutsack of whomever you’re worshipping. The man is the most humble dude I’ve ever met. But, he’ll knock you slick the fu** out.

    FEDOR > Life itself….

    EVERYONE ELSE SHUT THE FUCK UP. YOU KNOW NOTHING AND RESEARCH ANSWERS BEFORE YOU POST ON HERE. GET A LIFE, AND REALIZE THAT FEDOR HAS THE BEST HISTORY< NEVER KNOCKED OUT OR SUBMITTED< LOST ON A TECHNICALITY BECAUSE OF A CUT. READ UP FAGS!!!!

  65. October 26th, 2008 at 20:24 | #65

    Some of the comments here are even more rediculous: Royce Gracie!

    GSP is at the top of his game but he is nowhere near Fedor and Silva: all the rest is fuzzy science

    4. Chuck Liddell
    5. Quinton Jackson
    6. Anderson Silva
    8 BJ Penn

    What a dumb P4P list.

  70. joey d
    December 17th, 2008 at 00:35 | #70

    Its hilarious that most of you guys have no clue what your talking about. Fedor is nasty but has been fighting cans as of late…anyone can beat tim silvia. Big Nog has been a top 3 heavyweight for years…and Jon Fitch is a grinder not a top P4p Fighter. The list should read as follows.

    1. Anderson Silva - unparalleled striker, on a diff level.
    2. Bj Penn- best jits in the game, and best fighting mind
    3. GSP- fast learner, best fighting athelete, mental game still questionable
    4. Fedor- ’nuff said..xcept 4 he needs to fight legit competition
    5. Miguel Torres- lacks significant competition but still dirty.
    6. Rashad Evans- Undefeated, holds formidable knockout wins.
    7. Big Nog- Indestructable, nasty jits
    8. Wanderlei- The terminator of MMA
    9. Forrest Griffin- a young randy couture (sans nasty wrestling)
    10. Rampage- a real fckin G.
    11. Shogun- Wandys prodigy, injury caused last loss.
    12. Machida- elusive, and everyone sleeps on his karate skills
    13. Faber- a show off, but humbled by his last loss. will turn him into a force to be reckoned with.
    14. Liddell- he got caught in his last fight, his fight with Wandy was epic, best counterstriker in the game.
    15. Rich Franklin- the technical beast..the only one to beat him in the last couple of years was the spider.
    16. Lesnar- the vanilla gorilla will shoot to the top ten within a year mark my words.
    17. Couture- a gamer, but getting old.
    18. Ken Flo- the only lightweight with the skills to beat Penn.
    19. Thiago Alves- a beast at 170. but dosent have the skills yet to be champ.
    20. Eddie Bravo- nasty jits. and nasty weed.

  71. January 14th, 2009 at 19:12 | #71

    FEDOR # 1 NO DOUBT NOTHING ELSE MATTERS OH YEA_ DANA WHITE IS A BITCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  73. wayne
    January 14th, 2009 at 23:46 | #73

    u got 2 admit fedor is best and they make divisions 2 protect smaller weights so heavy weights matter cos smaller weight classes get destroyed buy them so fedor has 2 be the best cos he destroys every 1!!!!!

  74. fedor aint shit
    January 23rd, 2009 at 16:31 | #74

    ok gsp is the best fighter in the world i wannna see fedor come to the ufc and fight a good fighter not the ones he fought before

  75. Jeff
    January 23rd, 2009 at 22:22 | #75

    wtf is wrong with this sight GSP would last as tim sylvia i have mad respect for gsp but no comparison seriously.

  76. josh
    January 29th, 2009 at 15:52 | #76

    Fedor number 1, anderson number 2, GSP 3. Those of you that know MMA, yes Penn beat up on GSP in the first round however GSP won the next rounds with take downs and ground and pound, and with his high kicks.

  77. Bas-Rutten
    January 31st, 2009 at 14:25 | #77

    1) Feodor Emelianenko
    2) Anderson Silva
    3) Yoshihiro Akiyama
    4) Miguel Torres
    5) Frank Mir
    6) Georges St.-Pierre
    7) BJ Penn
    8) lyoto machida
    9) Mirko Filipović
    10) Gegard Mousasi
    11) Bas Rutten
    12) Melvin Manhoef

  78. Douglas

    Feodor Emelianenko is the best, Georges St.-Pierre is nowhere close to him

    February 14th, 2009 at 20:19 | #79

    Tell me how is gsp better then Fedor…. Gsp had pathetic loses, Fedor realy undefeated should be #1

  80. erlkonig
    February 16th, 2009 at 23:22 | #80

    Biggest problems with this list (That I noticed:)

    GSP=#1? no way… he isn’t as good as either Fedor nor Silvia both pound for pound and overall.

    As to which person is better Silvia or Fedor, I’d put Silvia over Fedor, but it’s this isn’t a definitive thing, both are too good to rate against each other. Since Fedor got somewhat overwhelmed by Arlovski until that last blow, he’s #2, and Silvia is #1.

    Where is Arlovski?

    Where is Cro Cop?

  81. chickenhead
    February 25th, 2009 at 04:49 | #81

    Fedor has the best record and has beaten most top fighters (he still has to fight big names) but even the best of the best like couture says fedor is the best and that explains all….. but u cannot compare fedor to silva as their diff in weight class… silva fights in higher mma org but the fighters he faces are not as big as the ones fedor faces…. they fight totally diff styles also….. fedor more of ground and pound, submission and puncher… while silva does flying knees and looks artistic…..both totally diff and both considered top 2 P4P fighters in the world… while fedor seems to fight less big names than silva he still makes less mistakes.. well w/e comes 3rd and onwards dont matter as this rank is a mix of weight classes so its ahrd to compare…. anyways mirko crocop shoulda 100% be there in the list….

    IN CONC. Silva and fedor are consdered the best but u cannot compare em as diff in style and weight div… and if u really want to see whos best out of the 2 of em then only way would be for them to fight eachother which will never happen…. but id say fedor would win >< purely with the weight adv and less mistakes made

  82. Sophiee
    March 2nd, 2009 at 15:44 | #82

    Personally i believe GSP is at top.
    Theres nothing that kid cant do and its just getting better every time.
    But thats my opinion so dont bitch and moan

    1.GSP
    2.Fedor
    3.Anderson Silva

  83. ParaNomaly
    March 8th, 2009 at 03:55 | #83

    @Derek

    WTF fedor is the most awesome fighter to ever enter the game and gsp although great, Is in no way more deserving of the No. 1 spot

  84. Mike
    March 8th, 2009 at 18:44 | #84

    ARE YOU SERIOUS GSP AT #1 YOU HAVE GOT TO BE WHITE BECAUSE YOU ASK ANY OTHER RACE THEY WILL TELL YOU THAT SILVA WILL ALWAYS AND FOREVER BE THE BEST FIGHTER OF ALL TIME!!

  85. progy
    March 12th, 2009 at 01:25 | #85

    You must mean gsp -penn 1 where george won. I guess you never watched gsp -penn 2 ? If BJ’s brother and the ref , and the doctor wouldn’t have stopped the fight….B.J ’s career would have been over ! I’d love to see GSP _penn 3 !Talk about a beating of a lifetime !Whether you like GSP or not , he has smoked all the best competition in the world.Why doesn’t Fedor fight Silva at 205LBS….he’s fat at 230 !

    what about tito ortiz

  87. dustin
    April 13th, 2009 at 21:46 | #87

    fedor is number 1, this is all wrong!

  88. UnabatedDeath
    April 22nd, 2009 at 13:31 | #88

    1) GSP
    2) Silva
    3) Fedor
    4) Machida (will probably one day be number 1 for a long time)
    5) Evans
    6) Penn (I just dont see him as that good, he can be beaten)
    7) Faber
    8) Gonzaga (best BJJ in heavyweight, any lower weight has no chance)
    9) Griffin
    10) Dustin Hazelett (amazing BJJ)
    11) Rich Franklin (probably the only one that could beat Silva)
    12) Alves

    Couture is done, the game is just getting too good for him.

    Same for Liddell, but he is still better than Couture.

    Mir just flat out sucks, period.

    Lesnar is just big and new, he will pass quickly with little fame.

    Rampage is good, but he will lose to Machida after Machida takes the belt in the next UFC.

    Franklin probably wont beat Silva if they fight again.

    So…GSP, Silva, and Machida will stay as the champions for a while.

    What would be cool is to see if GSP or Machida could beat Silva, although changing weights did not prove promising when BJ Penn tried it and got dominated.

  89. aiosa
    April 28th, 2009 at 21:25 | #89

    point blank period.. jon fitch??? and wheres rashad evans?? i dont care what anyone may think hes been my favorite from the start hes got 8 wins 1 draw in ufc he belongs to be atleast 11 GSP .. okay. 1? hes good but no b.j penn? no move him bak up anderson silva should be in the 2 or 1 spot most definatly hes a force unstoppable beast! champions need to be good fighters lots of heart and humble… forrest griffin definatly but yes no foreign fighters.. but there not popular in the u.s for a reason

  92. mike

    Yeah, big mistake putting GSP above Fedor. Even GSP himself said Fedor is in a league all his own.

  93. mike
    May 17th, 2009 at 23:37 | #93

    I really wish people would stop thinking that things would be different for Fedor if he came to the UFC. The guy is #1 in the world… that includes the U.S. and the UFC. The only way he’s ever going to lose is if he gradually sustains too many injures to be at his peak anymore, or if he just gets too old to fight.

  94. rico
    May 26th, 2009 at 17:23 | #94

  95. rico
    May 26th, 2009 at 17:24 | #95

    Lyoto Machida made cocky Suga look like a chump running away the entire fight. Machida is in the top 5.

  96. rico
    May 26th, 2009 at 17:28 | #96

    Top 5 in no specific order are as follows:

    GSP
    Fedor
    Spider Silva
    Machida
    Bj Penn (only if he trains like he is serious and quits relying on natual talent)

  97. martin
    June 11th, 2009 at 06:34 | #97

    Fedor fedor fedor. My god. What a bunch of nut lickers. Mark Hunt was a white belt 2 stripe in BJJ and escaped from an unescapable arm bar from Fedor. He also nearly got him(Fedor) in a kimuro. Imagine Mark Hunt as a black belt in BJJ.
    Ive fought Mark Hunt before and i tell you if he trained in BJJ more and did not run into punches with over confidence he would be deadly.
    But anyway…keep on going…Fedor this Fedor that…..

    June 12th, 2009 at 09:35 | #98

    About Bruce Lee..

    He would probably dominate most of them. Martial Arts and fighting to him was something he took in an extreme passion unlike any of these fighters..

    He did things like electrocute himself, push himself to human limits..
    crazy things.

    Theres few people in the world that can truely move as fast as Bruce Lee did. Few people that can have that speed.

    Think of it as Agent Smith. Theres only a few select people in this world that can move as fast as an agent, and it sure as hell isn’t these people in UFC. But hey, maybe you will all see one day atleast one person to show you what someone that has the true power of speed can do..someone that can go beyond human limitations.

  99. Alen

    July 11th, 2009 at 11:03 | #101

    No.1 Frank “the legand” Shamrock - The Legand say it all

    No.2 Feodor Emelianenko - 26 - 1 - 0 (Win - Loss - Draw) The loss was by ilegal stike.

    No.3 Randy Couture - hall of fame,Three-time UFC heavyweight champion,Two-time UFC light heavyweight champion.

    No.4 George St. Pierre - two time UFC Welterweight Champion,future hall of hamer,maybe even the best ever

    No.5 Royce Gracie - Win 4 UFC Open Weight Tournament Champion. Hall of hamer

    No.6 Wanderlei Silva - won eighteen-straight fights in Pride

    No.7 Ken Shamrock - four time UFC Superfight Champion,hall of hamer there well ever be after Ken”The World’s Most Dangerous Man”Shamrock

    No.8 Brock Lesnar - hes wins over Heath herring , Randy Couture.A future hall of famer for sure

    No.9 Lyoto Machida - unbeaten 15 - 0 - 0 (Win - Loss - Draw)can he be beaten

    No.10 Anderson Silva - Current UFC Middleweight Champion amazing fighter,eazy future hall of famer

  102. July 14th, 2009 at 13:49 | #102

    Fedor is the best , fast , quick reflexion , endurance , strength , ground or standing ….. fedor is the best….

  103. Denzel
    July 16th, 2009 at 12:47 | #103

    Douglas :Feodor Emelianenko is the best, Georges St.-Pierre is nowhere close to him

    Androly-San :That’s a pretty messed up list man.Top 5 should be:1 - Fedor2 - Anderson Silva3 - BJ Penn4 - GSP5 - Kimbo Slice…. J/K Lyoto Machida
    You managed to mkae me laugh with some of your coments though, so thanks.Forrest “dismantling” rampage. Fedor not speaking english and not fighting in the most “elite” organization, hahaha, he’d have any UFC fighter for breakfast and pick his teeth with the bones of the next challenger in line. Even though Randy is one of my favorite fighters, he’s way too high.
    Nie try though.

    Hey Derek! did you not see gsp come back and beat the hell out of matt serra not to mention the fight where he just beat the shit out of bj again! And just beat the hell out of alves, dude GSP is top or at leats top 3. Lol just watch, he will shock the world when he goes up in weight and beats anderson silva, he will flop him on his back and beat the crap out of him.

  106. July 23rd, 2009 at 21:51 | #106

    hey i cant beleive you dont have dan henderson up there, he has kicked the shit out of the last three fighteres he has fought agaonst and he knocked the fuck out of bisping and hes definitely gonna beat rich again and i think that he can beat silva if he gets another chance soon. He has also never been knocked out and he is 38 years old and has a record of 25-7 which is very impressive.

  107. Thomas
    July 24th, 2009 at 02:52 | #107

    Look people. Fedor is a bad ass no doubt about it. But realisticly Frank Mir had Brock’s number on the ground right? Uh Uh. I guess ol Brock found out his weight could help him. Dude hits like a fucking freight train. Look and Frank Mirs head. Its gotta be fucked to hell. Brock would beat the shit out of Fedor. He is a big dude who likes to fight. He can probably pull the fucking Titanic up out of the ocean. Dude is an animal. He’ll use his fucking 7 inch reach advantage and pound dude and show that he is absolutely the fucking man. Class in MMA? It’s a human dogfight basically. Fuck class.

    July 30th, 2009 at 21:23 | #109

    Top 10 List

    1. Anderson Silva
    2. GSP
    3. Fedor
    4. BJ Penn
    5. Lyoto Machida
    6. Randy Couture
    7. Rampage
    8. Kenny Florian
    9. Dan Henderson
    10.Chuck Liddel

    Tired of hearing that Fedor’s God. He is impressive and he’s probably the calmest and most methodical fighter in the world which is the reason he has an impressive record. In terms of fighting ability there are many fighters that are better. Fedor has not fought the same level competition as the UFC guys and people that refer to the fact that he has beaten ex-UFC champs are ignorant, as the ex-UFC champs he has competed against are just that ex-champs, has beens,etc. The only person that I don’t think is a has been, although that’s up for debate now since he lost again via KO, is Adrei Arlovski. He was demolishing Fedor and then he pulled the dumbest move on earth. Anyone who doesn’t think he was kicking Fedor’s but is in lala land. With that being said the end result is what’s important and that is why I have Fedor as #3. He is good, just not the greatest. If he beats the current UFC greats then I will possibly agree with his #1 status. It’s hard to argue the fact that Anderson is the greatest. He is just supernatural and he was born to fight. No one and I mean no one has the skills and abilities that this guy has.

    This List is so absurd.. it is just based in the likes of the author..

    And for sure the author is a begginer that holds to UFC and WEC but it is amazing hoe he doesn’t know about the graetest mma circuit ever existed named as PRIDE FC

    and common.. GSP is not above FEDOR..

    Brock Lesner would destroy Fedor. Silva is the best pound for pound fighter out there.

  121. September 14th, 2009 at 23:51 | #121

    What about Josh Koshcheck and Diego Sanchez? And why is Penn on the list? So he beat skinny little kenny Florian. The last time he fought GSP he got his butt kicked and quit–it wasn’t even close.

    To the guy who said Bruce lee couldn’t hang, your a fucking idiot he mastered 3 of the most deadly martial arts and created his own. He was faster then any mma fighter and was the founder of mma. In his latest 2 hour documentary there was current mma fighters that agreed that he’d be untouchable and there wasn’t special effects in his movies asswhole, eveything he did was real and he was able to come within milimeters of hitting/injurying people. Ask jackie chan he once got caught by one of bruce’s kicks almost makin jackie quit being an extra/stuntman in his movie. So do some research before you talk about the greatest mma/ martial artist this world may ever know

    Mirck Cro Cop is a top 10, maybe 5 of all time, and he’s not even on this list. In his prime he was a guy with Matt Hughes strength and body type with Anderson Silva caliber striking.

    1. Fedor
    2. Machida
    3. GSP
    4. Bas Rutten
    5. Anderson Silva
    6. Chuck Liddell (in his prime)
    The rest of the list doesn’t really matter. Joey D, your a fucking idiot and you need to watch more MMA.

    i can’t see nobody right now being even close to fedor, maby brock lesnar(he’s quite impressive), but in my opinin he hasn’t been checked yet.

    As I respect your opinion, I disagree on some of it.

    Fedor should be number 1 due to his unmatched fighting abilities. The guy moves like a middleweight. I also think that you consider crocop, he is a very talented fighter.

    Whoever says Fedor is not the #1 best of best MMA fighter, he is just a rotten jealous pussy. he proved it from Sambo competition to Pride FC which lots of UFC top fighter that got beat up bad, and now with M-1 Global which he still beat up some of the ex top UFC fighter. They all hate Fedor’s just because he don’t wanna join UFC with pussy Dana white gay.

    come on guys it has been proven a lot of the guys you all have put on a pedestal can be beaten on any given day a true fighter knows this … when it all comes down to it after all the training it would be nice to see a fight. the art of it. not street fighting my generation gets this!! we have been doing this before you guys called it mma it should be called guys who have somthin to prove to themselves and maybe others.. not the art of combat ..organized confusion!! a man fights you face to face not on his back until then call it what it is street fighting with many holes the best in the world dont need to be seen just felt!!!

    This post is old, Fedor still hasnt fought anyone good. I cant wait until people get tired of all the Fedor hype, also there is no way with all that fat he is anywhere close to best p4p fighter in the world when u have fighters like Silva and Bj.

    1. Fedor Emelianenko
    2. Georges St. Pierre
    3. BJ Penn
    4. Anderson Silva
    5. Lyoto Machida
    6. Yoshiyuki Yoshida
    7. Quinton Jackson
    8. Chuck Liddell
    all others are speculative in my honest opinion

    Fedor FTW! I think Mirko in his prime should have been top 10 no doubt. I don’t know what happened to him. Ever since his bout with Fedor, he’s never been the same.

    GSP definetly deserves to be number 1 no doubt.

    You are an idiot. Bruce lee could extend 70 lbs straight out in one hand for 20 seconds. You would be retarded to think any of these guys could even hit him. He was 140 lbs benching 260lbs 10x.
