Same. And it’s well deserved. He was why got me into mma. Because he kept fighting past his prime a lot of fans tried to diminish his legacy. That did my head in. Now after his last two boxing fights everyone’s on his nuts again and I like that haha
Same here guys. I am from Brazil and my dad used to talk about him a lot and when I watched Anderson front kick Vitor in the face I became instantly a fan of him and the sport. That moment was very important, It was a big step for the popularity of UFC and MMA in Brazil. I would watch all his fights non stop.. After the Uriah Hall fight I couldn't get my head around the fact the he would be gone from the sport, because no other had impacted me so much as a fan.

@@brandonmay6287 lol, shut up. The point is, he's the president of the ufc but still such a fan of the sport, unlike most executives who don't give a shit about anything non business related.
Wow Dana really used to be passionate about this sport you can hear it in his voice. I can't remember the last time I heard him speak this passionately, I guess you can't expect anyone to remain this passionate after over 20 years doing the same thing.
Fedor hadn't been beaten in his first 33 fights. One was a Doctor stoppage and a draw due to an accidental cut. He dispatched former UFC heavyweight Tim Sylvia in 36 seconds, Andrei Arlovski in one round also Brett Rogers. Give the man some credit. He also fought guys 20-60 pounds heavier.
Uhhhhhhhh he never fought an elite fighters. If you go and beat 100 of the #50-100 fighters in the world does that make you better than the fighter who beat 10 of yhe #18-1 fighters in the world. Quality >>>>>>> quantity
@@user-mb9yw4ir2i You may want to check your history... There was no UFC at the time of Pride and those were the elite fighters of the day. Heath Herring, Antonio Rodrigo Nogueria (Twice), Mark Coleman, Kevin Randleman, Mirko Cro Cop, Matt Lindland, Brett Rogers. He even beat guys that were UFC champions. As I said, you may want to check your history.
Anderson Silva's list looks far less impressive. Especially if you look at the big names he fought who were all well past their prime. Your left with beating a math teacher twice and Chael Sonnen twice while losing every round. And you got a couple of fighters who were cast offs from the Ultimate fighter contender show who amounted to nothing as far as greatness. Fedor's list is far more impressive. Prime Randleman, Prime Cro Cop, Prime Nogueria twice - I don't need to list any more. @@davem6210
@@davem6210there was a UFC at the time! But the Pride HW division was where the best guys were at, Coleman was old, Randleman was 1-2 in his past 3 before Fedor then would lose 4 straight. Cro Cop and Big Nog were his best wins and really the only guys he beat during their prime. Brett Roger’s sucked though!
But did you see when Anderson Silva avoided a three punch combination and came back with a counter?? NOBODY has EVER done that in the history of combat sports!!!!
I love Ariel for never backing down and always speaking what everyone thinks. Fedor not being in the ufc is definitely the main point Dana is pushing. Good journalism for Ariel to call that out.
@@youboob4394 "Doesn`t speak for you" lol. Is your brain even working? Ariel was in the right here, your daddy Dana was having an ego contest with a fkn journalist.
The heavyweight division is probably the toughest division to dominate in. They say Stipe was the longest reigning champ and his streak was pretty short. It's hard to dominate in a division where everyone has knock out power and it only takes one punch.
Fedor has the record of 8-1 versus UFC champs. He was undefeated for 9 years with 27 fight win-streak. Definitely one of the GOATS. Dana is just a homer for the UFC
Dana's point wasn't that Fedor wasb't a beast. He just didn't think he should be ranked higher than Silva.... watch the video. No one in MMA was doing what Silva was at that time.
Part of the reason he was undefeated for nine years is because he was the cash cow and hero in Russia. It's the same as boxers who go 106-6, (Julio Cesar Chavez) because he was a hero in Mexico and they weren't giving him anyone that could beat him. Fedor is absolutely the man in many respects, but he in his prime would have trouble with many a current UFC fighter because the sport has progressed fifty-fold since his heyday...
This is why I like Helwani, he actually acts like a journalist should. He asks tough questions and isn't there to massage egos. UFC should be glad they have such a good journalist covering their sport. I would love to have someone like him covering other sports.
It’s a stupid question. Fedor has always been overrated and priced himself out of a ufc contract. He came to strikeforce and got finished 3 times in a row
@@kimjong699 Its funny how Fedor never shit talked anyone but Danas bald roided ass couldnt shut the hell up about him. The dude talks like he could fight himself but would get slapped around by these guys.
Its one of the most interesting parts of MMA. I dont even think people consider anderson silva top 3 anymore, maybe top 5. MMA is beautiful and insane because one moment can shift your career upwards or end you.
@@rima7286 bruh khabib ain't on none of there levels. If khabib is top 5 then tibau one of his opponents is top 5, he couldn't get a takedown against tibau and the scoring was literally the same I was there but his teammate Islam beat him by round 1 submission. Michael bisping and a shit load fighters say he's not near that status and he only had like 13 fights in ufc. Stop being delusional 4 champions he beat compared to fighters like Jose Aldo who beat 11 and more title defenses
Fedor in his prime beat Nog and Cro Cop, who at the time was ranked 2-3 respectively. When Josh Barnett went to Pride, he lost to both guys. Soon as Nog went to ufc he won the belt. Dana is a delusional bitter fk when it comes to Fedor. At that time. AA, Mir and Sylvia were the best in ufc. Fedor would’ve been champ. It’s crazy to me that Dana doesent understand this.
@Rhys Hutchinson above all that, mans got a 40-6 record. For a guy his age, that’s impressive. For most fighters to reach 40 wins in mma, you’d see double digit losses before they even get there. Regardless of who they fought
Even Ariel brings up politics, which the email leaks being used for the anti trust lawsuit kind of show he's right. Fedor doesn't get the respect he deserves because not enough of the English speaking community saw his fights. I bet Russian, some European, and Japanese MMA fans give him his respect.
Iv never seen Dana not act hostile to Ariel, he always try’s to assert passive dominance and when Ariel gets submission Dana never clocks it and keeps going.
Hmm, not so sure. Pride is NOT the UFC and while Fedor dominated Pride, he'd have a hard timed beating the likes of a DC Cormier or Stipe as they would take him to the ground and either strangle him or put a triangle on him just like Werdum did in the first round of their fight.
@@bruisersdilemma354 When is the last time you saw either of them do a triangle submission? Like bruh stop smoking cr@ck. Second Fedor has beaten the MOST UFC Champions out of ANY fighter. More the Jones even. Second Fedors ground game is so much better then both guys you hust mentioned. Oh DC? Is a Olympic wrestler? Congrats Fedor already beat Olympic wresters in Pride like Coleman. He even beat a Olympic Gold Medalist in Judo in Pride. Stipe Iam not even gonna mention his wresling credentials when DC isnt even better a grappler then Fedor. Submission wise just look at the Randleman fight tell me could DC do the same after getting head spiked? No he couldnt. Fedor in his prime was the best HW fighter. He had a granite chin, great cardio, ko power, great grappeling, mentally you couldn't break him, great boxing and his hand speed bro his hand speed even today is still extremely fast if not the fastest still and he is what in his 40s? Also you talked about Werdum. Yes Werdum did beat him. But he was getting his ass kicked before that and Fedor simply made a mistake. Credit to Werdum tho capitalizing. A guy like DC and Stipe couldnt even dream putting up a submission like that
@@bruisersdilemma354 ??? werdum didn't take him to the ground fedor took him down started beating on him then he got caught with a triangle i believe neither dc or stipe are taking him down, it'd be a pure striking battle
This is when they both had a crush on eachother and it was fun to keep it a secret in public. Since they made love and broke up, they now just hate eachother cos they miss what they had.
I dont agree much with Ariel but with Fedor he is right. Dana forgets that Fedor was one of the first complete fighter with was hard to punch with and fucking difficult to grapple with. I dont know how he mentions anderson silva (even thou i see him as a phenomenal fighter too) but is a steroid user. GSP is a legend too, but Fedor fought everyone. The GOAT has to be a heavyweight especially with his size. He was the Mike Tyson of MMA.
@@user-ri3tl9qs6p Fedor didn't fight everyone.. he fought everyone who wasn't in the most competitive company while they were still in their prime. He was the king of the B-list, he has a crazy highlight real of fighting people who wouldn't be in the top 20 of the UFC heavyweight division. The only time he fought people who were at their peak and at UFC levels, he lost 3 fights in a row. Werdum and Henderson maybe would have been top 5 in the UFC at the time they fought Fedor, and both beat him handily. Bigfoot Silva easily beat Fedor, then went on to lose like 3 fights in a row in the UFC against non-champions. How can you say someone is the GOAT when they have a 3 fight losing streak against non-champions in the UFC?
POV: You're at Hooters trying to watch the fights and have a beer. Suddenly, this argument happens for the 100th time. You begin to reevaluate your life decisions and decide after this fight card you'll just illegally stream the fights from home.
Hes not doing well in boxing,he just beat an almost 60 yr old man who is naturally much smaller and shorter and hasnt trained in 20 yrs while he has never stopped training
@@scarred10 bruh what u talking about 🤣 he beat Julio ceaser chavez jr who was a former boxing champ and was 35 years old, silva was 46, then he he fought tito ortiz n put him away easily, silvas got skills if hes beating a former champion whos 35 year old
@@herrautisto5294 yeah exactly. A middleweight with losses in the double digits. Imagine if khabib lost to a bantamweight with double digit losses? It's basically what happened to Fedor
@@CW-ke8rk losing to a man who weighs 30 kgs less than you in any context is not a good look. Plus, Dan Henderson wasn't exactly in his prime either, was he? Just accept Fedor got koed by a significantly smaller, old opponent. It's not like Dan was a young prospect
People don’t realize that Ariel is an OG MMA journalist. He’s been here a long time. Like him or hate him he’s got knowledge of the game as much as any journalist or fan would without stepping in themselves. People don’t appreciate him but debates like this with Dana would be gold today.
@@lyricallyricist He knows a lot about stuff like rankings, upcoming events, the fighters and their lives etc., but he he hardly knows anything about actual fighting and the technical and tactical aspect of it.
But listen to Ariel. The guy didn’t have a valid argument. When someone says the guy hasn’t fought anyone to be pound for Pound best. You’re eighteen meant to state who he’s fought and why they’re actually world class or you say you’re right and move on 😂.
Respect to Ariel for standing toe to toe with Dana. The guy has always been the real deal. #Heelwani. This just reminded me of what he did to Dillon Danis weeks back
Honestly I don't see a debate here. What I see is Dana White shitting on Ariel's opinion without letting him say a single word. Every time Ariel tries to give an answer Dana just speaks louder and uses toxic dramatic tones to try to amplify his own arguments. It's a classic case of "I'm louder therefore I am right" arguement.
@@IChIDH Yeah, he's not actually giving any thought to what Ariel's saying. He's there to let off steam on him because poor ol' Ariel gave him a good reason to do so by touching a sensitive topic for Dana (Fedor). Dana's being condescending and acting like a dick in front of other people by making a loud scene over disagreeing with him. His tone serves nothing but to try and ridicule Ariel. This is an instance of Dana not liking someone, which makes this whole situation fruitless to anyone involved. He is still trying to hold himself back a bit and make it look civil but essentially it turns it into a passive aggressive conversation which is by definition, toxic.
Dana : You have Fedor as the number one pound for pound fighter?!? These guys here In the UFC fight 3 times a Year!!!! Fedor during Pride: Watch me win 3 fights back to back against 3 different fighters in the very same night.
And no weight class. Gsp would get his @$$ kicked by simply, an average Japanese fighter whom SHUT DOWN ANDERSON SILVA IN SECONDS. Throw Sanchai and Baukaw into the ring no ufc rules. Watch them all drop.
@@CHMPro if you're referring to Yushin Okami, Sliva made a fool out of him the second go around. GSP is a lot better than you think. Yes it in some pride events weight wasn't how a fighter was paired with another. Yes the rules were much more relaxed also. You have to keep in consideration that those very same rules or shall I say lack of rules apply to GSP as well if he fought then. Also I may add your average Japanese fighter would not win, if that were the case they'd have a name and reputation which they don't. It's not as simple as as it sounds.
uh Fedor never fought more than twice in one night, and the one time he fought twice in one night he went 1-0-1. First fight and win was a 50 second armbar on an absolute scrub you've never heard of. Then he had the NC with Big Nog on the same night...3 wins in a night, lmao, typical Fedor fans extreme over exaggeration.
Fedor would probably wind up submitting Brock on the ground. There's also a chance Fedor would have knocked him out after Brock got too tired to wrestle. The chances of Brock tko'ing Fedor on the ground are fairly small though still a possibility.
Dana is and was just pissed that he couldn't sign Fador because he wouldn't do co promotion back then. To discredit Fador like this just shows how bitter he is.
Buddy he didnt discredit Fedor. He said Anderson was p4p no.1 and gsp was 2. Fedor was still one of the best but you cant put him at the top of the p4p heap when you fight in the B league. Come to the ufc and prove your mettle against the best competition. No matter the sport you cant call yourself the absolute best when you compete in the 2nd tier leagues, simple as that. And that's the reason Stipe is the HW goat not Fedor.
@@poopyanalbumhole Top fighters get paid in millions and I don't see most fighters complaining. What slavory are you talking about, that's capitalism through and through, you make what you generate. Dont expect a rookie to make millions in a league that is just 30 years young and you need to reinvest in a growing business. Fighter pay is increasing every year. Stop parroting that same tune and learn how business works, fighters now make 20 times what they did in the 90s and in 10 years they will be making 10 times what they make now. I think dana is a sleazeball and could pay more but he isn't paying them unfairly less otherwise fighters would not be clamouring to get In the ufc. Media is overblowing this pay narrative and people like you are sheepishly following suit. If the pay was this bad ufc would be failing not booming to become one of the biggest leagues and fastest growing sport in the world. Fighters would be leaving left and right to find better alternatives. That all aside, Fedor competed in the B league and that is a fact. If you took his nuts out of your mouth maybe you would be able to see that. Nobody trashed him, apparently calling somebody one of the best but not the p4p king is trashing him, clown.
@@panic_diver when Fedor was in pride he beat every body .this statement just shows how little you know !In his time Fedor beat how many u.f.c heavy weight champs? let's see!!! *Sammi Schultz *Kevin randleman *Big Nog *Tim Silvia *Andre arlovski *Mark Coleman "All ufc heavyweight champs !!!" *Notable mentions *Mirko CRO cop *Big daddy Goodrich *Heath herring Ect.........and on and on you Ass hat !!!
@panicdiver Sure dude but u forgot one important thing. Back in those days (when Fedor was in his prime), Pride was the A league and UFC was the B league at best, hell, they just started the events and formed their rules of fighting while Pride was already on fire in Japan. U mixed some apples and shit..
1. Mighty Mouse. Most criminally underrated fighter ever in the sport of MMA. His division didn't suck, he just made it look that way. Gotta respect the title defenses. Finished a hungry Triple C, and almost beat him in the rematch. Finished Benavidez in his prime. Finished Horiguchi with 1 second left in the fight, one of the most incredible things I've ever seen. And then armbar in mid-air against Ray Borg, which was THE most crazy submission I've seen to this day.
He is a great but I put CCC above him, I feel like fighting mighty mouse twice and how easily he beat Cruz and TJ was something else. To dominate 2 divisions is really almost impossible in the UFC.
Only you Newbs would not give Fedor the respect he deserved. He got slammed on his head by a UFC HW champion and shock it off like nothing. Went on to win the fight but yet Dana said he didn’t fight anyone. Yeah okay.
In his prime, Fedor would reigned the UFC heavyweight division along side CroCop. Fedor would just beat up or subdue everyone and Cro Cop would just kick these guys insides out of the cage. I mean wee see plenty of leg kicks in the octagon but can we really compare them with the ''right kick hospital, left kick cemetery'' rule?
@@darthjones1996 Well they didnt. Past their prime they did some good beating on UFCs best heavywights. Heck, Cro Cop would ve won the UFC heavyweight title if Dana didnt tought he deserve it. Gonzaga was smart, he knew these guys dont know the UFC rules so he used elbows too hurt Mirko and he succeeded but look what Mirko did to Gonzaga in their second fight...he rearranged his face, do u remember that kiddo? And CroCop was like 40 at time...
The reason Fedor is GOAT is because he was the first one to be considered the GOAT of MMA, he would win by KO, submissions or ground and pound! He could bend all styles better than anyone forget the last style bender! Also, he was undefeated for a long time... if he retired early like Khabibg and GSP, then no one beats him either! Him and Silva stayed fighting the top guys til this day!
I agree i like khabib dude is a monster but he did retire early which was a smart move and he honored his mother's wish but Anderson and Fedor put it more on the line fighting killers while being way past their prime , it's not just about wins/losses.
Honestly, Dana would have been smarter to bing Ariel closer rather than push him away. Ariel never did anything that Dana wouldnt have himself. Both smart, both ruthless, both love the sport and know it inside out.
Lmao ariel is no saint either. He pushed the wrong button to a lot of ppl at the wrong time. Like that time when she asked cris cyborg why dana blocked u and cris said i didn’t known then he comes to dana an says cris is very mad that u blocked him on Twitter.
I really wish Dana and Ariel would squash their beef when they were doing interviews they had such good chemistry and are both so knowledgeable about the game their conversations would be amazing to see again
They were well past their primes when they fought Fedor. Your statement is nonsense. He is the best HW ever but it has NOTHING to do with beating arlovski and Tim
Really hope years from now Ariel and Dana could patch things up. Whether Dana wants to admit it or not, Ariel really did a lot for the sport as well. He was the first journalist personality and even his bickering with guys like Rampage Jackson was pure entertainment. Ariel was just as passionate about the sport and put so much time in. I have a hard time believing that two guys that love MMA as much as these guys do, won't eventually shake hands years from now. Even if it's in retirement.

Wow Dana really used to be passionate about this sport you can hear it in his voice. I can't remember the last time I heard him speak this passionately, I guess you can't expect anyone to remain this passionate after over 20 years doing the same thing.
There are still plenty of clips where he’s just as excited.
For example, UFC London Post Fight Press Conference.
Cheers, mate
Fedor hadn't been beaten in his first 33 fights. One was a Doctor stoppage and a draw due to an accidental cut. He dispatched former UFC heavyweight Tim Sylvia in 36 seconds, Andrei Arlovski in one round also Brett Rogers. Give the man some credit. He also fought guys 20-60 pounds heavier.
Uhhhhhhhh he never fought an elite fighters. If you go and beat 100 of the #50-100 fighters in the world does that make you better than the fighter who beat 10 of yhe #18-1 fighters in the world. Quality >>>>>>> quantity
@@user-mb9yw4ir2i You may want to check your history... There was no UFC at the time of Pride and those were the elite fighters of the day. Heath Herring, Antonio Rodrigo Nogueria (Twice), Mark Coleman, Kevin Randleman, Mirko Cro Cop, Matt Lindland, Brett Rogers. He even beat guys that were UFC champions. As I said, you may want to check your history.
Anderson Silva's list looks far less impressive. Especially if you look at the big names he fought who were all well past their prime. Your left with beating a math teacher twice and Chael Sonnen twice while losing every round. And you got a couple of fighters who were cast offs from the Ultimate fighter contender show who amounted to nothing as far as greatness. Fedor's list is far more impressive. Prime Randleman, Prime Cro Cop, Prime Nogueria twice - I don't need to list any more. @@davem6210
@@davem6210there was a UFC at the time! But the Pride HW division was where the best guys were at, Coleman was old, Randleman was 1-2 in his past 3 before Fedor then would lose 4 straight. Cro Cop and Big Nog were his best wins and really the only guys he beat during their prime. Brett Roger’s sucked though!
But did you see when Anderson Silva avoided a three punch combination and came back with a counter?? NOBODY has EVER done that in the history of combat sports!!!!
I love Ariel for never backing down and always speaking what everyone thinks. Fedor not being in the ufc is definitely the main point Dana is pushing. Good journalism for Ariel to call that out.
Dana has a point. But pride did have some of the best that eventually went to UFC to become some of the best. Fedor definitely would have dominated.
@@youboob4394 "Doesn`t speak for you" lol. Is your brain even working? Ariel was in the right here, your daddy Dana was having an ego contest with a fkn journalist.
@@jorgebush7519 still doesn't mean hes speaking for everyone
The heavyweight division is probably the toughest division to dominate in. They say Stipe was the longest reigning champ and his streak was pretty short. It's hard to dominate in a division where everyone has knock out power and it only takes one punch.
Fedor was offered a UFC contract
Fedor has the record of 8-1 versus UFC champs. He was undefeated for 9 years with 27 fight win-streak. Definitely one of the GOATS. Dana is just a homer for the UFC
Definitely one of them, but there is definitely a good argument keeping him from #1. As for heavy weights tho? He definitely could be it
To be fair, that is his job.
Dana's point wasn't that Fedor wasb't a beast. He just didn't think he should be ranked higher than Silva.... watch the video. No one in MMA was doing what Silva was at that time.
@@hyper550 Fedor was the best in fighting and wrestling while other fighters are only good at one thing. He is definitely the best.
Part of the reason he was undefeated for nine years is because he was the cash cow and hero in Russia. It's the same as boxers who go 106-6, (Julio Cesar Chavez) because he was a hero in Mexico and they weren't giving him anyone that could beat him. Fedor is absolutely the man in many respects, but he in his prime would have trouble with many a current UFC fighter because the sport has progressed fifty-fold since his heyday...
these things make me love life again, this took me out of my sadness for a Lil bit, thank you
All you had to do is watch Fedor in his prime to know how great he was, he beat plenty of former ufc champs
This is why I like Helwani, he actually acts like a journalist should. He asks tough questions and isn't there to massage egos. UFC should be glad they have such a good journalist covering their sport. I would love to have someone like him covering other sports.

Fedor is 9-1 against ufc champs, Dana and dc out here smoking crack
Fedor in his prime beat Nog and Cro Cop, who at the time was ranked 2-3 respectively. When Josh Barnett went to Pride, he lost to both guys. Soon as Nog went to ufc he won the belt. Dana is a delusional bitter fk when it comes to Fedor. At that time. AA, Mir and Sylvia were the best in ufc. Fedor would’ve been champ. It’s crazy to me that Dana doesent understand this.
@Rhys Hutchinson above all that, mans got a 40-6 record. For a guy his age, that’s impressive. For most fighters to reach 40 wins in mma, you’d see double digit losses before they even get there. Regardless of who they fought
Even Ariel brings up politics, which the email leaks being used for the anti trust lawsuit kind of show he's right. Fedor doesn't get the respect he deserves because not enough of the English speaking community saw his fights. I bet Russian, some European, and Japanese MMA fans give him his respect.
This isn’t an argument. This is Dana yelling over anybody who tries to talk.

Iv never seen Dana not act hostile to Ariel, he always try’s to assert passive dominance and when Ariel gets submission Dana never clocks it and keeps going.
For years I've believed 100% that its all sexual tension.
Its real.
Fedor’s resume with Pride is unmatched. He’s the GOAT. Dana is just bitter because he didn’t get Fedor/Couture (I wish it happened).
Hmm, not so sure. Pride is NOT the UFC and while Fedor dominated Pride, he'd have a hard timed beating the likes of a DC Cormier or Stipe as they would take him to the ground and either strangle him or put a triangle on him just like Werdum did in the first round of their fight.
@@bruisersdilemma354 When is the last time you saw either of them do a triangle submission? Like bruh stop smoking cr@ck. Second Fedor has beaten the MOST UFC Champions out of ANY fighter.
More the Jones even. Second Fedors ground game is so much better then both guys you hust mentioned.
Oh DC? Is a Olympic wrestler? Congrats Fedor already beat Olympic wresters in Pride like Coleman. He even beat a Olympic Gold Medalist in Judo in Pride.
Stipe Iam not even gonna mention his wresling credentials when DC isnt even better a grappler then Fedor.
Submission wise just look at the Randleman fight tell me could DC do the same after getting head spiked? No he couldnt.
Fedor in his prime was the best HW fighter. He had a granite chin, great cardio, ko power, great grappeling, mentally you couldn't break him, great boxing and his hand speed bro his hand speed even today is still extremely fast if not the fastest still and he is what in his 40s?
Also you talked about Werdum. Yes Werdum did beat him. But he was getting his ass kicked before that and Fedor simply made a mistake. Credit to Werdum tho capitalizing.
A guy like DC and Stipe couldnt even dream putting up a submission like that
@@bruisersdilemma354 ???
werdum didn't take him to the ground
fedor took him down started beating on him then he got caught with a triangle i believe
neither dc or stipe are taking him down, it'd be a pure striking battle
This is when they both had a crush on eachother and it was fun to keep it a secret in public. Since they made love and broke up, they now just hate eachother cos they miss what they had.
Fedor is the Pioneer of the GOAT conversation.
Exactly 💯
I dont agree much with Ariel but with Fedor he is right. Dana forgets that Fedor was one of the first complete fighter with was hard to punch with and fucking difficult to grapple with. I dont know how he mentions anderson silva (even thou i see him as a phenomenal fighter too) but is a steroid user. GSP is a legend too, but Fedor fought everyone. The GOAT has to be a heavyweight especially with his size. He was the Mike Tyson of MMA.
Rickson by armbar
@@user-ri3tl9qs6p Fedor didn't fight everyone.. he fought everyone who wasn't in the most competitive company while they were still in their prime. He was the king of the B-list, he has a crazy highlight real of fighting people who wouldn't be in the top 20 of the UFC heavyweight division. The only time he fought people who were at their peak and at UFC levels, he lost 3 fights in a row. Werdum and Henderson maybe would have been top 5 in the UFC at the time they fought Fedor, and both beat him handily. Bigfoot Silva easily beat Fedor, then went on to lose like 3 fights in a row in the UFC against non-champions. How can you say someone is the GOAT when they have a 3 fight losing streak against non-champions in the UFC?

You have to keep in consideration that those very same rules or shall I say lack of rules apply to GSP as well if he fought then.

And that's the reason Stipe is the HW goat not Fedor.
@@poopyanalbumhole Top fighters get paid in millions and I don't see most fighters complaining. What slavory are you talking about, that's capitalism through and through, you make what you generate. Dont expect a rookie to make millions in a league that is just 30 years young and you need to reinvest in a growing business. Fighter pay is increasing every year. Stop parroting that same tune and learn how business works, fighters now make 20 times what they did in the 90s and in 10 years they will be making 10 times what they make now.
I think dana is a sleazeball and could pay more but he isn't paying them unfairly less otherwise fighters would not be clamouring to get In the ufc. Media is overblowing this pay narrative and people like you are sheepishly following suit. If the pay was this bad ufc would be failing not booming to become one of the biggest leagues and fastest growing sport in the world. Fighters would be leaving left and right to find better alternatives.
