Jon Anik calling Stipe the undisputed greatest heavyweight of all time

So?do i need to remember when fedor fought Maldonaldo and bigfoot...

Yes . But take account fedor was I'm his twenties when he was in his prime. He slowed down on his early thirties and began losing as he got older.
 
With the exception of Ngannou ALL those are past their primes.

You can't say they were out of their primes when most of them were on a several fight winstreak. If Stipe didn't beat Prime Werdum then when was Fabricio's prime? Back when he was dropping decisions to Sergei Kharitonov?

612 baby!
 
The question I wanna know why fedor and Cro cop struggled so much when they finally come to America off their biggest wins...

It baffles me tbh.
 
Stipe hasn't even got 10% of the skill of Vitaly Minakov. He is a part time fighter. Stipe is good because he is very fit for HW and not a pensioner, Ngannou should have been choked out easily, the choke was open so many times but Stipe didn't really know what to do. Thats UFC HW division in 2018 though. Raw and amateurish fighters like Ngannou being some "great".
 
Stipe sucks. Stefan struve is the real goat

With Crocop I don’t think his heart was really in it by the time he signed with ufc. He’d already said that he would retire if he didn’t win the owgp. He also said he’d never trained in a cage and he had difficulty adapting as the angles were all different to a ring. With regards Fedor I still believe he’s the goat but the game evolved past him he should have gone to one of the top US camps but he was happy to stay in Russia.

Fedor won his first 4 fights in America.

Cro Cop had injuries and surgery right before he came to the UFC. He had many more injuries and surgeries during his UFC run. He had like 120 fights.

Everyone slows down after a decade of fighting.

Look at JDS and Cain. They are both pretty much done now. Their careers and primes were much shorter than Fedor and CC's
 
Fedor is getting twatted by frank mir soon just a glorified punching bag
 
look at the facts baby

hes the goat

Incorrect. He struggled with his last opponent.

Prime Fedor beat the best ever bjj heavyweight on the ground (Not) by date cbf into his guard. He then outstruck the most feared striker of all time (Crocop). Both in their prime.

And if you’re going to say Werdum is better than Nog on the ground, go watch their first fight. Prime Nog’s BJJ was beautiful, and a step above Werdum’s.

What other fighter had the abilities to stand with a K1 great and ground and pound a world class guard specialist? Very few if none.

I hit quote immediately because he absolutely did not struggle with Francis lol. He dominated every facet for every second

Stipe dominated K1 champ Overeem and BJJ wizard Werdum. If you want to hold it against Stipe that he didn't KO Werdum from guard that's on you but I give him more props for not allowing the fight to go to the ground.

He's also about fight an Olympian wrestler, so... this kind of comparison of resumes is starting to shift in Stipe's favor
 
Stipe is the HW GOAT and it's not close. But just like there's still flat Earthers, there are people who will come up with various BS to argue against Stipe's rightful place.
 
You can't say they were out of their primes when most of them were on a several fight winstreak. If Stipe didn't beat Prime Werdum then when was Fabricio's prime? Back when he was dropping decisions to Sergei Kharitonov?

Stipe: breaker of curses, stopper of streaks.
