Fighters you feel are grossly disrespected, regardless of their skillset/accomplishments

Know you're his biggest dick rider par excellence and in a perverse sense I respect that but one of these days you're going to have to admit there's a reason Mousasi isn't ever really brought up in the GOAT conversations mate.

You're a weirdo, mate. However , if you were a real mma fan youd realize by know that your words are silly ....and I mean that in the sense of his actual colleagues.
That's the measuring stick I go by. The topic is about sheep ( like yourself)
 
Stipe is the most disrespected among current top fighters. Despite his exceptional achievements he is regularly dissed with Sherdoggers eagerly anticipating his defeat.

Among former fighters, Brock is one of the most disrespected. Despite his taking the UFC by storm and becoming champ, MMA hardcores won't look past his WWE career.
 
Chris Weidman. People keep calling him a bum but they forget he says the one to beat Jones.
 
Fedor
Anderson
Benson Henderson
Probably every UFC fighter that went to Bellator (Bader, Davis)
Shields
BJ Penn
 
Bisping, JDS, Fitch were all solid performers for a long time, but were always in the shadow of their competition at the times.

Ferguson, number 1 contender for 5 years, shouldve been recognized as a long reigning champ but ufc shit on him .

Do bronx, his record number of finishes is unprecedented. Ufc been sweeping him under the rug giving him dangerous no name fighters that are high risk low reward. He deserves better.

These two aren't the type ufc wants as champ. They aren't huge with the media and fergys getting old. They both could be easily been champ, EASILY...had the ufc favored them in matchmaking as they did with khabib connor etc.

That you, Charlie?

Oliveira could EASILY be champ at 155?

Leon Edwards

Conor (2 weight world champ that people act like he's a can and the only fighter to have ever tapped out in MMA)

Bisping

Jens Pulver

Takanori Gomi

almost 50 posts in and no mention of Demetrious Johnson. That's how disrespected he is. Defended his title 11 times? Not like new champs nowdays that doesn't even defend more than twice and immediately "targets" the next division, just to called "double champ"
 
Jon Jones all day all night.

And probably every other black UFC champion or ex-champion. Even Anderson Silva is routinely shit on for no reason.
 
Rousey and Ken Shamrock...

Both have bad attitudes and huge egos that put people off, but they were pretty legit badasses in their times.

I found that a lot of people didn’t know lesnar was a legit NCAA wrestling champ before wwe some people talk like he’s cm punk or some shit
 
Tim Sylvia is very under appreciated. Not saying he was great, but he was 10-4 in UFC and as champ, defended 2-3 times. Beat Arlovski twice in a row, when AA was considered a beast. Had arm broken in a fight with Frank Mir but protested when Herb Dean stopped the fight. He was not a gifted athlete, yet he worked hard in one of the toughest gyms in the world at the time and achieved World champion status. Few have gone so far with limited ability.:)

Damn near any fighter who’s prime was before someone started watching them. Sherdog has no concept of stuff like aging and wear and tear. For some reason boxing fans get it but MMA fans don’t.

Boxing fans are older. You don't understand aging until you've seen a few generations of your favorite athletes start to suck at like 33 years old.

I'd add bisping to the list too.
Damn good fighter, beat some solid opposition over years, tuf winner, champ, still talked about like hes a scrub by many

Has lost to many cheaters while being clean, his record would've easily been a lot better if he either used PEDs himself or if USADA was introduced way earlier.
 
Conor McGregor is by far the most underrated fighter to have ever lived. Nobody even knew about the sport before he made it popular yet some people claim he isnt the face of MMA.
