Fedor looked like shit through his whole career. He still had the best win streak in heavyweight history.

Some people think he was the greatest of all time. I think he would have lost to the best UFC guys like Velasquez and JDS if he had fought them in his prime. The first guy to defeat him was Werdum, the current UFC champ.

I have to disagree. He manhandled Sylvia in 30 seconds. Edit. But he did look like shit.

He also beat Arlovski with one punch. There's no way to know for sure, but to me it seems like the top UFC heavyweights from recent years would beat Fedor in his prime. Cain, JDS before the fights with Cain, and Werdum. Werdum had improved a lot since he beat Fedor.

No one has gotten to the top and stayed at the top the way Fedor did. Anderson had that kind of run at middleweight, but he wasn't big enough to beat the top heavyweights.
