Ok so i randomly decided to go all the way to the second to last forum page and noticed a post titled " Who has the best shot at stopping shogun?" somewhat humorous now that shogun is most likely never gonna get back on his feet in the mma world with all the injuries. anyways it made me think of the guys these days who are seemingly unstoppable and here goes my questions

Who has the best chance at stopping the following:

1.Anderson Silva

2.Fedor

3.GSP

4. BJ


I get that this is basically a grouping of a bunch of posts but you know you want to voice your opinions

Anderson Silva- Maia, Jacare, Linland, or hendo (someone who is pretty much a straight grappler, that knows they dont have anything standing, someone like maia or jacare know they dont have anything at all to offer at stand up, so they will take the fight to the ground everytime its standing, than from there they can work their best, Silva is good on the ground, but not as good as Jacare or Maia. Same goes with Linland, if he is smart is enough, which i think in this case he would be, he will try to take this fight to the ground Non stop, and control anderson, every second its standing he has to be trying to take it back down, same goes with hendo, the only problem with him is that he is comfortable standing, and thats why he lost the fight, if he would have taken down silva non stop IMO i think he would have beat him. If there was a sherk at MW that would be the guy to beat silva.)

Fedor- i believe the only person that will beat fedor is someone who is better than him at every aspect of the game, someone as well rounded as he is, just a Bit better.

GSP- fitch (its really the only choice right now, a good wrestler, thats comfortable on his back and is good at getting back up, someone that whenn they are standing gets in his face non stop, someone with not with striking better than him, but someone that throws big punches, and thats when GSP will panic and immediately go for the takedown (llike he did against serra 2nd time) and if they can stop the takedown, or get back up that will frustrate GSP, and he is gonna make mistakes, too early too sat, but i think Koscheck can beat him too, he is just as athletic as GSP, and standing his striking might not be great but he always throws haymakers and power punches.

I belive Bj can stop GSP but will never make it to the other waight classes but if he did he would take out fedor and silva.
