no question that its couture.
not even close...he doesn't make my top 5 tbh
fedor is the choice to go with here with Matt Hughes finishing second. Randy didn't really put together the string of wins that fedor or Hughes did and didn't face the same competition. his most consecutive title defenses were two against Pedro Rizzo while fedor had 3 against all top 10 competition in big nog, mark hunt and CC plus he won the 2004 HW grand prix where he beat coleman, randleman, ogawa and finally big nog. fedor has by far the best resume in terms of competition beat and his resume as champion is no less impressive.

I never pick other on the lists, but I think my #1 is Fedor, and my #2 would be Wand. Dude didn't lose a fight in his weight class for 7 years.

To me Hughes is the Tito of the WW devision they both never really defended against top fighters, and when they did they lost... anyone can defend their title a crap load of times if they are in fights with people in the bottom of the top 10 or even out of the top 10 in Titos case.... The differance in Hughes and Tito is that Hughes didn't ducks fights he just went in and got his ass kicked

Why do people think Matt Hughes never fought tough competition?
- He won the title and defended once against Carlos Newton who was definitely a top fighter at the time and had only lost to guys like Henderson and Sakuraba who typically fought at weights well above 170.
- He beat Sakurai who was probably the top 170 pounder in Japan, definitely a top 5 guy in the world at WW.
- He beat Sherk who was undefeated and definitely a top 5 guy in the world. That was Sherk's only loss for quite a while.
- He beat Frank Trigg twice. The first time Trigg would have been considered a top 5 fighter (only loss was to Sakurai).
- He beat GSP, handing him his first loss.
- He beat BJ Penn who people considered a top 5 fighter (whether he was at WW is debatable).
I wouldn't consider Castillo, Verrisimo, Gracie or Riggs as top of the line contenders, but I think the overall quality of who he defended against is very good.

ill go with hughes, he was dominant, and it seemed(at keast to me) that no one could take the belt from him(even when bj did it didnt seem probable) for a span of several years. fedor is an extremely close second, and if i thought about this for an hour i might flip flop several times. the deciding factor is that ithough fedor might lose to CC and nog going into fights with them, and i didnt think matt would lose to anyone except maybe gsp the second go round.

i say either fedor or randy but if i had to choose one i would say randy because i highly doubt fedor can remain champ at 40
i doubt randy could run off as many wins as fedor has without a loss

no-one will be happy with the outcome of Randy V fedor... If its in a ring and Fedor wins the randy fans will claim its because they were not in a cage, and vice versa if its in a cage and randy wins....

I say Coture or Hughes, because when they held the title they beat some real tough opponents.
