#1 Frankie Edgar

#2 Josh Kosheck

#3 Dan Henderson

#4 Sakuraba

These four are pretty universally agreed upon. Who is the fifth p4p MMA fighter based on toughness alone?

Thought about Diego as well. Leben 100% needs to be on the list somewhere.

listen I dont know why you guys are posting more than one person. I already have the top 4. You are just choosing the fifth ranked fighter based on TOUGHNESS alone.

Frankie Edgar is the clear cut #1 P4P in the world. He doesn't even cut weight for his fights, so he's fighting a lot of guys who are substantially bigger than he is. He's one bad mofo. There's a huge drop off between the #1 spot in Edgar than the rest.

Are we doing the poll strictly on toughness? so guys like GSP wouldn't be there say if it was based on all around technical ability.

don frye is the manliest mmafighter of all time, but not sure about the toughest. Hes up there tho in his prime.

chris leben will never be on this list. he is a dumb goon who tries to practice the homer simpson strategy. he is a step below jon jones on the list.

Frye's pretty tough, iirc Shamrock demolished both his knees/ankles in their match and Frye just sat there, then continued to beat the **** out of him

when rating someone for toughness you have to take into consideration both fighting ability and toughness. When you combine the two you come up with his overall toughness score.

chris leben is a bum who just goes in there and gets beat on. his fighting ability and toughness factor are both low.
