Favorite Fighters!
We need to get some activity in here! So who are your favorite fighters? Mine are:
1. Rhonda/Anderson Silva
2. Lyoto Machida
3. Mark Hunt
Anderson Silva, I believe is the best of all time in the modern era. He's seen his best days but it appears he is not done. An 80% Silva still beats 99% of fighters.
Rhonda's talent is exceptional, as is her work ethic. She will likely dominate until she retires to make vastly more money in TV and movies.
Machida and Rhonda are the closest things in modern mma to being traditional martial artists. Rhonda with her Judo, Machida with a combination of traditional Karate and BJJ. I'm a firm believer that traditional martial arts are effective in mma when applied properly, and these two are proof.
Mark Hunt is just a walking, padded brick wall with tremendous power. He doesn't quite fit the mold of a modern mma fighter, but he's been doing it for so long and has held his own against a who's who in the fighting world. I just can't NOT root for him.

Anderson Silva and Matt Hughes
Silva I think needs no explanation. Arguably the greatest of all time in MMA
Matt Hughes because for what he meant to the sport at the time was amazing. Just ridiculous power and laid way to for a lot of the fighters of the modern era

Brock Lesnar, because in my opinion, I think he actually enjoy hurting people ...he looks at home in that cage, weather its WWE or UFC, oh, did i mention that's he's a beast.
