Yes, Fedor has to be the best heavy weight MMA type fighter there is. He has some sick power in his punches. I have seen Mirko get beaten easily if he get's taken to the ground. That is his biggest weakness.

i was thinking that as i watched the highlight video... he's definitely a stand up fighter...

he didnt' seem to have too much trouble escaping from holds though (in that video, anyways...)

Is Silva the UFC Champ? Hmm..I wasn't very impressed with some of his fights I saw...Mirko for sure...

Who saw Siva destroy Franklin?

These Pride fighters are pretty scary...

They only show his hightlights from the ground. Most of the time when he gets taken to the ground, he has trouble but there really is no one in the UFC that is good on the ground in the heavy weight division.

Don't get me wrong, he is going to own Sylva. He can take a punch, has a nasty high kick and very good hands.

this guy:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Sapp

he is huge, but very slow, and gets tired in about a minute //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

he was in the longest yard.

EDIT:

Sapp was knocked out by Croatian Mirko "Cro Cop" Filipović in 86 seconds at the March 30, 2003, Saitama event.

Actually I agree with that guy...MMA fighters can hurt you standing, kicking, in the clinch, on the ground.

Have you seen the clip where he knocks out Vovchanchin with a kick to the head?

Yeah, that guy must have out weighed him by a good 30 pounds.
