Who is the earliest UFC fighter you could see beating a current champion?
MMA has evolved dramatically over the last 20 years, with fighters today being more skilled, well-rounded, and physically prepared than ever before. I think most would agree that nearly all current UFC welterweights would easily defeat Royce Gracie from UFC 1. So, my question is: Who is the earliest UFC fighter you could see beating a current champion? GSP and Anderson Silva come to mind immediately. What about Randy Couture, Chuck Liddell, or a prime roided-up Vitor Belfort? submitted by /u/pelfinho [link] [comments]
