My vote is for Ivan Drago.

Are you a total newb or a total tard?

When you discuss something like the greatest ever, it is similar to a hall of fame conversation. You have to be at the top of the sport, for an extended period of time and make a significant contribution or difference in the sport. Cung Le? Even Anderson could be argued as not being deserving...yet. Same for many of the guys on there, they just haven't come close to completing their careers yet. Seriously, who has Cung fought to deserve mention here? Nothing against him, but his only significant win is an aging Frank Shamrock. And by aging, I mean his career is nearing the end. I know, much of this is about generating the debate, but it is laughable. This is like asking which baseball player had the best career and include guys that have only played a couple of years and who have mostly played currently or recently. Sorry, but this is funny to me.

I'm going to guess because CBSsports.com is for the common sports fan and a lot of causal MMA fans my have seen him on showtime. While I am sure Sam doesn't expect him to win its better than obscure names that people may have never heard of but the Die Hards know. With that said I am sure Cro Cop is going to lose handily. #10 – The Legend.
