Honourable mention

lesnar prolly isn't fair since he almost died a bunch of times in the last couple years. really is a shame. i feel like we missed out on what could have been the biggest mainstream MMA star ever

Is having a weak chin mean you're soft? Chuck and Arlovski have weak chins, but I don't see them as soft fighters.

Kalib Starnes needs to be on this list.

Kalib Starnes was the first name I thought of when I saw the thread.

my nominations Nobuhika Takada and Mike Bernardo

Top 5 P4P softness and you have 4 ex UFC champions and GSP is just lul

whats up with the gsp hate?never got it..

UFC Cro Cop? Sure.

Pride Cro Cop? GTFO.

Ergo, not sure I like that pick.

Bob "The Beast" Sapp should be number 1 and it's not even close. He's tapped due to strikes multiple times against far weaker competition than Brock faced.

Some of these fighters have been through one too many wars in their day and maybe cant take a punch like they used to but I wouldnt class all them as soft.

Top 3 has to be Bob Sapp, James Toney and Jose Conseco.

jardine is top on the list.

nothing soft about toney unless it's meant as "easiest to beat in an mmafight".

James Toney is literally the softest.

GSP instatapped to an armbar with half a second to go in a round, tapped to strikes versus a journeyman lightweight, and absolutely refuses to take the slightest risk to put on a good fight in exchange for a slightly reduced chance of victory. HE COULDN'T EVEN FINISH DAN HARDY! Put Dan Hardy in with a MAN like Condit and boom, KTFO in R1. GSP couldn't finish Fitch in 25 minutes and we had to put up with 3 more years of atrocious Fitch fights on PPVs. Put Fitch in with a REAL MAN like Hendricks, and it's over in 12 seconds. GSP refused to go to the ground with Shields, A VEGAN, even after dropping him with a LHK. Ellenberger, a MAN, kneed Shields in to la la land in 90 seconds.

gsp is a very good fighter but if he lacks anything it's knock out power. he just can't finish or trade blows like these other guys so he chooses not to. i think him choosing to trade like you suggest would significantly hurt his chances.

that being said he is kind of soft

soft? he put the nads in canadians

I suppose you must be trolling but Chuck was an absolute warrior.

weak chin =/= soft.
soft is guys who mainly fight stand up, tap prematurely, and are all around pussies.

off the top of my head I can't think of too many. Dan Hardy seems a bit soft.

I have trouble calling anyone who fights mma "soft"

You can say they lack heart or weak chin or whatever but a forum full of mainly poker nerds calling mma stars soft is kinda laughable.

^ agreed why can't anyone ever be like Joe Rogan. RESPECT ALL THE FIGHTERS FFS.

GSP is a great fighter and for Hughes that armbar was magical what a great era!
