#10: Brett “The Grim” Rogers
At 6’5″ 265 pounds, Brett “The Grim” Rogers comes to the octagon for one purpose: to knock you the f**k out! He possesses absolutely no ground game and does not hide his intention that he is in the cage to channel all his discontent through the face of his opponent.
#9: Strikeforce’s Middleweight Contender: Tim Kennedy
#8: Dan “Hendo” Henderson
I realize that my No. 8 pick may not be on the top of some people’s lists. At 40 years old, Dan Henderson may be conceived as over the hill or as losing some of his octagon skill. However, even with years of experience over some of the UFC’s elite fighters, Dan Henderson’s fight game should not be overlooked.
#7: Evangelista “Cyborg” Santos
#6: Melvin “No Mercy” Manhoef
#5: Current Strikeforce Heavyweight Champion, Alistair Overeem
#4: Former UFC Middleweight Competitor, Gerald “Hurricane” Harris
Gerald “Hurricane” Harris
Recently released from his UFC contract after a “staring” competition in the third round of his previous loss to Maiquel Falcao, Gerald Harris possesses a 17-3 overall MMA record with a 3-1 UFC record.
#3: Strikeforce Middleweight Contender, Cung Le
#2: Nick Diaz
#1: Fedor “The Last Emperor” Emelianenko
Emelianenko had been widely considered the best heavyweight fighter in the world for the last seven years. As of October 27, 2010, Sherdog.com ranks him as the No. 4 fighter in the heavyweight division.
He holds the distinction of having held five separate major championships including the Pride Fighting Championships heavyweight crown, a title he never lost.
