Favorite Fighters...

Here are some of my favorite fighters. I am not one to jump on the bandwagon and only like the best fighters. With that said they are not all the best and one does not even fight any more-lol

Fedor Emelianenko
Mike Tyson
Chuck liddell
Tank Abbott

I also like Kimbo Slice. While he is not the greatest mma fighter, I just really like and admire the street fighters. I actually have a lot of the fights of the above fighters on my ipod and iphone.

Kimbo's street fights on youtube are the best...raw agression and stupidity of his opponent.

I grew up watching Tyson and I remember feeling physically sick when he got knocked out by Buster. He will always be one of my favorites.

With that being said I don't watch that much boxing anymore. I think promoters, like Don King, have ruined it. And idiots like Floyd "Money" Mayweather continue to drag it into the gutter.

I watch mostly MMA now and even though there are a lot of organizations. I feel like the UFC has the majority of the great fighters. There are a lot of other fighters that deserve to be great fighters but I don't feel they have been truly tested.

My Favorites:

Tyson
Georges St. Pierre
B.J. Penn
Anderson Silva
Cain Velasquez
Fedor Emelianenko
Gegard Mousasi

Oh I agree 100% :gj:

I'm a fan of Kimbo myself, although stated above he's not the best, his determination and hard work when he was on the Ultimate Fighter show was just impressive and probably motivating for other MMA fighters as well. Also to see how much his ground games has improved is almost as impressive. Gained a lot of respect for him.

I like:
Randy Couture
Chuck Liddell
GSP
Wanderlei Silva

That's about it for me.

I can't believe I forgot to put Igor Vovchanchyn as one of my favorites!!! He is retired but he hit like a sledge hammer!!! Awesome dude to watch fight!!!

Ah, forgot to add Forrest Griffin to my list.

Forest Griffin
Mirko Cro Cop
Anderson Silva
Dan Henderson
Brock lesnar
Kimbo Slice


Kimbo is pretty sick, Ive watched his fights for a long time, before ever getting into MMA fighting. There are alot more fighters i really like, but these are some of the tops.

Helio Gracie
Rickson Gracie
Royce Gracie
For what they did for the fighting evolution...still love watching old footage. "Choke" is still a movie I pop in the VCR every now and then.

BJ Penn
Nick Diaz
Nate Diaz
Marcelo Garcia
Mike Tyson
GSP
Chuck Lidell
Kazushi Sakuraba

I think my list would just get exhaustive. Of course when Fedor fights and Anderson Silva fights I have to watch those fights too. I also like to watch Chris Cyborg.

How did I just now find these threads!?! Ball Pythons and MMA, doesnt get any better than that. Boanerges, you are genius :bow:
