Cro Cop was a far superior striker to Anderson Silva

[boxemm]

It annoys me to hear people call Anderson the best ever striker in MMA when Mirko was a far more decorated kickboxer and accomplished just as much in MMA.

Mirko's technique was light years beyond Anderson and he was also much more powerful with a better chin.

Mirko was a K-1 World Champion, don't forget that.

How does one accomplish as much in MMA when they didn't have 10 title defenses?

Mirko fought much better competition

If Anderson fought Fedor he would've gotten his ass kicked too

True story

 

[Sonny Qc]

Anderson Silva isn't even the best Striker ever in his division....

 

[TheIconTheSmooth]

Cro cop made a name for himself beating old farts and undersized opponents. He got k.o by Brandon scrub, Anderson will never.

Huge Mirko fan. But, you sound like your trolling. Anderson didn't beat Fedor? No shit, different weight classes.

Sugar Sean > Conor > Anderson > Gabriel Gonzaga > Cro Cop

 

[Nobru]

TS, Agree with cro cop being more powerful
Skillwise, no, and not even close, Anderson had a bigger arsenal and was faster

 

[Fahcough]

Silva better counter striker with hands, Cro cop better offensive kicker

Sugar Sean > Conor > Anderson > Gabriel Gonzaga > Cro Cop

Better chin? That's the part that makes me think this is a troll job.

Anderson Silva is the GOAT MMA striker and it’s not close.

-Longest win streak (16)
-longest title reign (2457 days)
-most KOs in title fights (7)
-most title defenses finishes (8)
-most knockdowns in title fights (11)
-most knockdowns in UFC history (18)
-10 title defenses (should be #1 with 11)
-3 1st round LHW KOs

Anderson would've slept Fedor.

Who is in your honest opinion???
And if you say GSP, I will find you and I will not be nice.

Cro Cop is a great MMA striker but prime Silva is levels above him (and everyone else).

Anderson got slept by a half assed arm punch from Chris Weidman

Compare that with Cro Cop taking bombs from Fedor
