Who are your top 5 favorite fighters in the UFC and name your least favorite fighter in the UFC?

Best being 1 and worst being 5

1.) Forrest Griffen- Every time he fights he gets the most bloody in each event he partakes in. And the funny thing with Forrest is that the stronger his opponent the stronger he is and the the better his chances for winning. Lastly you always vote for him like you would to the main character of a story

2.) Matt Hughes- He won my heart when I saw him pick up a guy ran across the ring with him and slammed him to the ground. I believe that was Frank Trigg he did that to. But that IS without a doubt my favorite fight. That fight and Evans vs. Machida were the fights that got me into MMA

3.)George st. Pierre- Never have I seen revenge look so sweet against Matt Hughs and Sierra. It was an absolute domination what it was. He basically is probably the best fighter pound for pound in UFC history

4.) Rashad Evans- I never seen anyone learn and improve so much from a defeat other than maybe Pierre. That goes without saying he was not already very strong before the Machida fight. Now he MUCH faster and he copied some of Machida's technique which made Rampage missed every punch by a mile. I believe he is known to hit and make contact more than anyone in the UFC and Lastly his wrestling is one of the best in the Light Heavy weight division.

5.) Anderson Silva- He never makes a fight boring even if the opponent is not doing anything because he always looks so impressive when he is fighting. All he needs to do work on his submission defense and not get disqualified when he was clearly winning the fight

Least Favorite fighter is Tito Ortiz. Their is something about him that reminds me of a snake with the way he acts and looks. I believe he put on a fake personality during the Ultimate fighter because he is liar and is scared of Liddel.

    1. Matt Hamill - overcomes the odds, really talented, heard he's a great guy, totally screwed in the Bisping fight 2. Clay Guida - Always puts on a helluva fight 3. Houston Alexander - some KOs, the story about his kids is a good one 4. Quinton Jackson - so funny, really good 5. Brandon Vera - so talented, could've still made a huge impact at Hw, will be LHW champ 6. Chuck Liddell - how could you not 7. Brock Lesnar - Guy is a beast, has so much potential, if that stupid point deduction hadn't happened he would've won because he wouldn't have felt the need to end the fight 8. GSP - amazing talent, hope he reings for a long time 9. BJ Penn - just a flat-out fighter 10. Anderson Silva - unbeatable

    1. Anderson Silva: Two words. Holy Shyt. This guy has pinpoint striking. They're so precise that he doesn't even need max power to deal a KO punch. Just hit the right spot and produce enough power from the right muscle groups then WAM! His evasion is so unreal. It's like watching a cartoon show. He has a solid sprawl technique (not as good as Liddell's though). His Muay Thai and Boxing is top-tier. He's a sniper rifle compared to many MMA machine guns and grenades. Best of all, he made those great fighters he fought look like amateurs.

    2. Mark Muñoz: He's Filipino. I'm Filipino. That's why he's #2 on my list. One of the nastiest G&P fighters in the UFC. Every punch he deals while on GnP stance is an A-Bomb. You can hear it through the whole stadium.

    3: Vitor Belfort: Two words. Fast. Hands. This guy is like punches like a jackhammer. Loved it when he fought Wanderlei. He's a very aggressive attacker.

    4. Lyoto Machida: I know he's afraid to get struck but I just love it when he shows how effective being evasive is. Only Shogun Rua (#1 in LHW) can beat this guy in a streak,

    5. Mirko Cro Cop: Right Leg: Hospital. Left Leg: Cemetery. His kicks are deadly and miles better than Shogun's. He has the best staredown ever in MMA. He would kill Junior Dos Santos if he was young and in his prime. One of the few fighters that can go through 5 rounds with a prime Fedor.

    My runners-up

    Forrest Griffin: Beat Sherdog poster-boy Shogun Rua through sheer endurance, willpower, and heart. He has an amazing cardio and can fight through cuts and bleeding.

    Jon Bones Jones: Has huge potential and my main man in the LHW in the near future. I believe this guy can beat the crap outta Shogun Rua in the near future.

    Least Liked:

    Tito Ortiz: Same with your reason.

    Amir Sadollah- The kids got a lot of potential and is just a great humble person

    Rashad Evans- He's got a nasty well rounded game in general. His takedowns and timing and precision were so good in his last fight that he kind of reminds me of the GSP of the lightheavy weight division. He's got some fast hands, sweet footwork and head movement.

    Kenny Florian- Dude keeps getting better and better and is usually a very consistent fighter. Plus he has Great ground game and his Muay Thai has improved a lot, and now his boxing is starting to improve a lot.

    Jon Jones- Kids got so much potential his Striking is very creative even though it's unorthodox, and he has outstanding wrestling.

    Jon Fitch- He keeps on evolving and is a humble and hardworking guy and he's extremely consistent. He's only lost one fight in the UFC. He may not be the most exciting fighter but he's very intelligent and composed.

    My least favorite fighter is probably Tito Ortiz

    4) Matt Serra- After what he did to GSP....how could you not love him (all so he should of won the Hughes fight)

  • 1 decade ago

    Micheal Bisping- guys got balls, grit, and teeth and knows how to f*ck sh*t up

    Shogun Rua- quick on his feet and throws some brutal knees

    lyota machida- only ufc fighter who knows shotokan karate with a 16-1 record

    matt Sera- awesome bjj fighter and great submission and ground tecniques

    roy nelson- fat man's a beast

    I HATE Brock Lesnar, he's too f*ckin cocky and basicaly has the image of a bully (take a look at his days in wwe when he beat the **** outta zack gowan, the one legged wrestler in front of his own mother and then threw him down the stairs in a wheel chair a week later). in all reality he's a real p*ssy, if he has to pick fights with the weaker bunch.
