One of the biggest debates on fight forums in the world is: Who is the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world? For UFC president Dana White, the best fighters are in his organization. The middleweight champion Anderson Silva, followed by Georges St Pierre e B.J. Penn. There is a small group in the United States that prefers the WEC bantamweight champion, Miguel Torres, but for most internet users, the favorite is the Russian beast Fedor Emelianenko.
Fedor, who faced and defeated most of the best heavyweights in the world, has an undisputed record of 28 wins and just 1 loss, in his last appearance, he needed just 36 seconds to dispatch former UFC champion, Tim Sylvia. With great humility, the Russian does not consider himself the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world.
I don’t consider myself on the pedestal,” said Emelianenko.
“I have some weaknesses and I make some mistakes. Of course, this is frustrating, because like any athlete, I have to strive to improve every day. I know that a good part of the media and fans want to say that I am the best. I appreciate the fact, but I don’t consider myself the best,” he added.
