Alright, so I was reading through Twitter yesterday and saw someone retweet this from the boys at Tapout.
This was the answer:
I was thinking. I really love 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon, and this plays somewhat like that. So what I want to do is get this thread going and one person(I'll start) will post a "How has Fighter A beaten Fighter B?" And then the first person to correctly answer it gets to do the next one.
Sound like a plan!?
Let's do it!
Question: According to MMA Math, how has Diego Sanchez beaten BJ Penn?
Round 2 of #TapoutTrivia: Through MMA Math (A def. B, B def. C, so A def. C) How has Leonard @badboygarcia defeated Anderson Silva? RT!
This was the answer:
Well done! @TJ_: @TapouT @badboygarcia > pulver > bj penn > matt hughes> r. almeida > TJ Grant > Ryo Chonan > Anderson Silva #tapouttrivia

Nicely done.
The way I did it initially was Sanchez -> Thiago -> Koscheck -> Hughes -> Penn.
Your turn!

I doubt this is the lowest common denominator, but here's what I came up with.
Stevenson -> Diaz -> Gomi -> Azaredo -> Anderson Silva -> Leben -> Wanderlei Silva -> Jardine -> Vera -> Mir -> Lesnar

Props - Tried but you already have my STD's so i'll send some out and pick some more up then get back to you. Remind me.
I know it's not the highest one I was just interested how you could get from Stevenson to Vera, from there it's simple.
