MMA P4P Top 5

[radab]

SO its come to this time already lol


Where do you rate Lyoto P4P on the worlds MMA stage?



For the past 3 years at least my top 5 has been the same......



1. Fedor
2. Anderson
3. GSP
4. Penn/Machida (tied)


If Penn gets beaten by Florian (which is a serious possibility) then he moves down and Lyoto gets outright 4th

Lyoto's not even lost ONE single round since coming to the UFC. He's been a genius waiting to be appreciated, and now it's is time


Massive respect > Lyoto Machida

[Kestrel]

Good list. I agree except I would give #4 all to Machida.

[Nuke]

I'd have to say Fedor #1, Machida #2, GSP #3 and then A. Silva #4.

What has Silva done lately? Who has he beat?

[sugarngold]

Machida does have the "W" over BJ Penn.

[radab]

Sugarngold - Lyoto severly outweighed Penn when he beat him (215 - 187) so that has no bearing on anything

Nuke - interesting you have Machida so high! I hear what youre saying about Anderson. The guy seems to be incredibly frustrated cause hes constantly being matched up with guys who dont stand a chance against him - but then again who does?
Machida does, but he wont fight him.
Who then is there who could seriously stand a chance of beating the guy?
GSP has been consistently awesome - he deserves to be ahead of Machida - at least for just now


But Lyoto has been a phenomenon waiting to explode - his time has come :hat

[HyperBone]

Fedor
Silva
Georges St Pieeereeeee
Machiiiiiiiiidaaaaaaaaaa

[boxingcar]

i rate GSP at the 2nd spot.....
so Machida is either in 3rd or 4rth position. (with Anderson)...

Penn is numero # 5

[LB3000]

i rate GSP at the 2nd spot.....

Penn is numero # 5 I would also have it like that.

[Nuke]

I can put GSP over Machida I don't have a problem with that, my point about putting him so high was he is undefeated thats all. but #2 or #3 isn't a big difference.

That would be my list too.... but expect to make room all the way to the no2 spot if Shogun is finally back to his best.

[Vitor Belfort]

1 Fedor
2. Silva
3. GSP
4. Machida-Penn

[Tko4]

1 Fedor
2. Silva
3. GSP
4. Machida-Penn

Exactly how I see it.

[québecwarrior]

Torres is ahead of Machida in my opinion

[Vitor Belfort]

Exactly how I see it.

Silva is fighting forrest next. If he beats him could we have a super fight with machida-anderson silva:think? I know they are sparring partner but they are two of the best right now and i would love to see this fight.

[québecwarrior]

dana white said they would fight if the time is right

[sugarngold]

It's definitely time to put Machida in the number 4 slot. BJ looked horrible against GSP and has lost at his natural weight in the past against Pulver. I know the Pulver fight was looong ago - but it still counts in these mythical rankings in my eyes.

In fact - Machida might be ready for the number 3 spot as well.

[socrates]

fedor
gsp
silva
machida
penn

[québecwarrior]

where is the love for Torres????

[BewareofDawg]

1. Anderson
2. GSP
3. Fedor
4. Machida
5. Penn

[Grievesy]

where is the love for Torres????

I know!!!WTF:twisted:

Because he fights in WEC which is basically a small time show he doesn't get the love he should IMO. The WEC are running out of guys to give him to fight and have to bring in fighters from Japan. You've got Brian Bowles and Benavidez who could legitimately be put in a title fighHe has dominated his division so far. My list would be:

1. Fedor
2. GSP
3. Anderson Silva
4. Miguel Torres
5. Lyoto Machida

[achillesthegreat]

Fedor
GSP
Silva
Machida

Part of me is thinking Machida over Silva though.

Penn probably at 5 now.
