Now we get into a single division the reason I did this is the 60 pound weight difference between LHW and HW. Here is my list of LHW

  • Chuck Liddell
  • Randy Couture
  • Dan Henderson
  • Wanderlei Silva
  • Rampage Jackson
  • Shogun Rua
  • Jon Jones
  • Lyoto Machida
  • Rashad Evans
  • Tito Ortiz
  • Lil Nog
  • Ricardo Arona
  • Forrest Griffin
  • Guy Mezger
  • Frank Shamrock
  • Vitor Belfort

The only fight I'm not surprised by the voting so far is Couture/Tito!

Thought Machida would have a much bigger lead on chuck and shogun/wand would be closer as well and i thought hendo would be losing to jones!

@Nik Lust " how can you say he wouldn't win in a fight? HE ALREADY DID."


Some people believe Machida won, some believe Rampage won. There is one thing that everyone can agree though, it was VERY close. I believe Lyoto would win in a rematch and he won the first time, but that is the opinion of one sole person. I'm very happy that your opinion is different from mine because if everyone had similar opinions, this place would be mind-numbingly boring. That's why we need guys like Bill Burgess and justynbomar and theMMAmessiah, because they start all the fun.

I'm a huge fan of Jones and Hendo, probably a little more a fan of Dan, but their two of my favorites. I'm shocked Hendo is winning that, and i voted for Bones. It's gotta just be the hate, which is kind of dumb.

@stange you're right.

quality of opponets is everything lets compare Hendo and jones's top 3 LHW fights and prove that people aren't voting with their brains.

Hendo-   

#1 wanderlei silva.   3rd round tko of a back and forth fight.

#2 shogun Rua.   UD on a fight that most believe should have been a draw

#3 Vitor belfort.  UD on a fighter who won 2 out of his last 6 fightst

Jones

#1 shogun, 3rd rd TKO.  3 dominating rounds like shogun has never seen

#2 Machida 2nd submission (machida's first ever sub loss)

#3 Rampage Jackson 4th round submission (first sub loss since 2001)

 

me personaally i'd rather have Jone's top 3

You don't understand it's in their primes!!!! Hendo would beat Jones.. Yes I hate Jon Jones but I would pick him to beat everyone in the LHW division now besides Rashad and Hendo and obviously Thiago would maul him. All Hendo has to do is land one punch!! And I think he could do that in 5 rounds.

Moving to the semi-finals:

  • #2 seed Dan Henderson
  • #4 seed Randy Couture
  • #6 seed Shogun Rua
  • #10 seed Lyoto Machida (was tied my vote broke tie think Machida's style would have been the difference in a fight with Chuck in their primes)
