2. Who has the strongest gaze in mixed martial arts today? Nomad, you hiding something from us? You wanna look deep into their eyes? Pause...
3. Who is the physically strongest mixed martial artist? k this ****erotic **** is going too far.
4. Who is the most overrated fighter? Benson Henderson maybe.
5. Who is the most athletic mixed martial artist? Georges St-Pierre or Jose Aldo.
6. Who is the best represents the martial arts, in mixed martial arts? Lyoto Machida.
7. Who is the biggest prospect in MMA right now? Difficult one, I'd have to say Conor McGregor because he convincingly beat the guy who I considered the biggest prospect before him, Max Holloway.
8. Who is the greatest Knockout Artist in mixed martial arts today? Looks like Vitor Belfort is, that roid-surgence has worked wonders for him.
9. Who is the greatest takedown artist in mixed martial arts today? I'm inclined to say Jon Jones because he mixes up his takedowns and even throws in some judo ****.
10. Who is the most technical fighter in mixed martial arts? Anderson Silva. Not a fighter in fighting that has more understanding of techniques and how to use them than Anderson Silva. Before the Hendricks fight I would say that it would be GSP but GSP looked like a fish out of water fighting his very first southpaw, his jab was being severely limited but he didn't adjust to that at all.

When I asked who was the physically strongest I also meant divisionally.

- Gleison Tibau, LW. If people can't interpret this question they are stupid. Just by the ey he looks Tibau looks like Hector Lombard.
2. Who has the strongest gaze in mixed martial arts today?
- Cain Velasquez.
3. Who is the physically strongest mixed martial artist?
- ******* polish body builder guy. Can't write his name, I know he just beat Sean "goofy dumbass" McCorkle
4. Who is the most overrated fighter?
- Randy Couture
5. Who is the most athletic mixed martial artist?
- Chad Mendes
6. Who is the best represents the martial arts, in mixed martial arts?
- Georges St. Pierre, obviously.
7. Who is the biggest prospect in MMA right now? (not in fame, but in level of skill in your eyes)
- Brandon Thatch
8. Who is the greatest Knockout Artist in mixed martial arts today?
- I'll go Johnny Hendricks only because his are the most ******* brutal, one-punch, lights out, stiff legged KOs
9. Who is the greatest takedown artist in mixed martial arts today?
- George St. Pierre...
10. Who is the most technical fighter in mixed martial arts?
- George St.Pierre. he may not be the most powerful, or be the riskiest fighter, but definitely the most technical sound.

2. Who has the strongest gaze in mixed martial arts today? Gunnar Nelson, I see death in his eyes, as if he sees something no one else does.
3. Who is the physically strongest mixed martial artist? Two men come to mind Chad Mendes and Hector Lombard but this question was a bit too broad.
4. Who is the most overrated fighter? Gegard Mousasi, I think he's amazing but dodged a bullet in Gustafsson. People speak of him in ways his performances in mixed martial arts or even kickboxing have never matched.
5. Who is the most athletic mixed martial artist? Anthony Pettis
6. Who is the best represents the martial arts, in mixed martial arts? Cung Le!
7. Who is the biggest prospect in MMA right now? (not in fame, but in level of skill in your eyes) Satoshi Ishii, he's one of the greatest Judoka's on the face of the earth, Olympic Gold Medalist, 26 10-2-1 in MMA only loses at HW to Fedor and Fujita in his debut. Quite a few reasonably impressive wins considering his limited experience. If he could figure out a weight cutting method for 185lbs I think he'd be the first Japanese star in the UFC. He certainly looks like he can make 185lbs when put next to many MW's in the UFC.
8. Who is the greatest Knockout Artist in mixed martial arts today? Shahbulat Shamhalaev
9. Who is the greatest takedown artist in mixed martial arts today? Dominick Cruz if he can handle Barao the way I think he could of pre injury. I know GSP is supposed to be the obvious choice but I just don't see his game being as on point anymore, nor is he as big, explosive or athletic as he once was.
10. Who is the most technical fighter in mixed martial arts? Anderson Silva you just have to look at all his Martial Art ties and ranks. Yellow Rope Capoeira, 5th degree black belt Tae kwon do, Master in Muay Thai, Master in Boxing, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Black Belt, Judo Black Belt. I also known Anderson is for a fact very well trained in Shotokan and Wing Chung I just cannot find his ranks ( though I assume quite high ). He is truly a master and a student of the martial arts. Anderson understands fighting in a way almost no other fighter comes close to.
