I was wondering this too. Most strikers are a lot better if they don't have to worry about being taken down.

najma · February 14

JONES??? LOLWUT!??!?!

He got outstruck by a guy over whom he had an 11 inch reach advantage!!!! Machida.
He has a 10 inch reach advantage over anybody he fights and they always feel threaten but his takedowns, yet he didn't KO any of them, wasn't even close.

1. Anderson Silva
2. Lyoto Machida
3. Jose Aldo
4. Anthony Pettis
5. Shogun

PoloRidah · February 14

Jake Sheids
Jon Fitch
Damien Maia
Phil Davis
Jacob Volkmann

B-)

On a serious note would you guys consider Vitor one of the best strikers in the UFC?

I think you HAVE to put Vitor near the top

He's the only guy left in the UFC with 100% finishing ratio

And no one ever talks about this, but his furthest finish ever in the UFC was his 2nd round TKO of bisping. Yes, out of 11 UFC finishes his worst finish was a second round finish

Hunt had a 6-fight losing streak with all 6 losses happening in the 1st round. His kickboxing record sucked and he had well over 10 losses. He got a few KO's as a HW recently...that doesn't exactly make him the second best striker in all of MMA

Jones, on the other hand, made shogun look like an amateur in striking when he was something like 23 years old. I realize he may not be 5 with all the talent there is, but a case could def be made that he's up there seeing as tho he's lost something like 1 round ever striking

Omoplataypus · February 14

Barboza gets no love :(

Guy has power,blazing speed,technique and mixes up his attack better than anyone except Anderson.

lol so going 30-13 in pro kickboxing means you suck? Get real man.

Jones is not a top 10 striker either. He's has good elbows i'll give him that but not much else besides the oblique kick.

Barboza was spoon fed cans and then got demolished by his first real opponent

no one said that he sucks, someone insulted my list and then said Hunt was number 2. i was just saying why insult my list when you put hunt as the 2nd best striker in all of mma. there's so many insanely gifted strikers in mma right now that it didn't make sense to insult my list than say hunt was number 2

nah, look back. You said his kickboxing record sucked.

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned Pat Barry. He's an excellent striker with tons of power.

ah, ur right, didn't see that at first. to clarify, it only sucks when comparing it to the best 3 p4p strikers on earth. there are a lot of guys in the UFC with undefeated kickboxing records
