Explain to me how that's ridiculous when those fighters are actually beating relevant opponents, while Fedor is clearly totally shot (lost last 3 fights via finish against capable opposition).
You can't just say "Fedor has a chance to finish him" when he hasn't finished anyone relevant since January 2009 and even that's questionable because AA hasn't been competitive in a relevant fight since then. The last time he finished someone who was competitive in a relevant fight afterwards was Mark Coleman in ****ing 2006. So that argument simply doesn't hold water.
Applying that logic, Takanori Gomi would be the biggest threat to Jose Aldo because hey, he's bigger, he has a history of finishing his opponents, and he was dominant around the same time as Fedor. But everyone in here would I'm sure agree that's an absurd statement. But for some reason, when the same reasoning is given for Fedor, people just nod their heads in agreement. The Fedor mystique has you guys by the balls, let go of it and simply look at the facts.
