[brawler4life]

forgot chuck and wandy!!!!!

[James Saville]

how can you have bj penn and not gsp?

[brawler4life]

gsp got koed by matt serra plus he dont really strike much he takes it down bj has great hands

[Ben_Hutch]

gsp got koed by matt serra plus he dont really strike much he takes it down bj has great hands

Just because he got caught doesn't mean he hasn't got great striking.

Penn's striking looked very very average against GSP, GSP had the better of the stand-up.

[$candalous]

Etim and Hardy are in top 5 on that list. My top 5 from the fighters you've used in that list are:

Anderson Silva, Tiago Alves, Dan Hardy, Terry Etim and Junior Dos Santos.

[brawler4life]

i also forgot an honourable mention to chiek kongo

[Ben_Hutch]

Etim and Hardy are in top 5 on that list.

Kelly was landing some sweet bodyshots at UFC 95 too!

[brawler4life]

yeh forgot tellies and his sweet bodyshots

if hardy ko's davies he'll be in the top 5

[brawler4life]

scandoulous wht would ur list be mate of the top 10?

[brawler4life]

my list of the top 10 wasnt in order by the way

[$candalous]

Yo brother. in no particular order: Anderson Silva, Tiago Alves, Dan Hardy, Terry Etim, Chiek Congo, Mike Swick, Machida, Paul Taylor, Marcus Davis, Brandon Vera.

I know there a few others but my minds gone blank. There all good technical strikers though.

[brawler4life]

[$candalous]

$candalous list > Brawler's list

[Wiegieboard]

K flo is really good. The Sit Yod Tong in Sommerville really are a shithot team and it shows through him. Both his striking and grappling are awesome.

[brawler4life]

$candalous list > Brawler's list

my list is under construction pal seen as i forgot a lot of top strikers dont judge me on that one!!!!

[darthcrab]

penn, anderson, machida, alves, jardine, chuck, rashad, hardy, k flo, marcus/gsp--not sure which id rather

[brawler4life]

jnr dos santos
thiago alves
anderson silva
terry etim
cheik kongo
michael bisping
rashad evans
paul taylor
kenny florian
loyoto machida

thats my final one

[londonpride]

Can't believe GSP isn't there. his striking is top class and hugely underated. he hammered bj on his feet.

[Mike Bishop]

Well at least it's better than the first list. I couldn't believe you'd put Bisping in the top 10 and not included Machida. I really don't see how Bisping can be on any top 10 list. He's a decent striker but has hardly been banging them out in the UFC. He got outstruck by Matt Hamill FFS. Bisping has a good all round game but doesn't deserve to be on that list imo.

[The Natural]

I'd have to say silva and machida would be my picks for the best mma strikers..both inflict damage and recieve very little in return and that imho is what a good striker should be able to do..''hit and not get hit''..

[Brett]

In no real order

Machida
Thiago Alves
GSP
Taylor
Pat Barry
Etim
Kongo
Hardy
Anderson Silva
Belcher/Swick/Condit/Vera/Wandy/Evans/Hardonk

not really ive never seen him out wrestle or submit someone his game is based on his striking and i think hes got a decent record because of his striking

[Waterboy]

jnr dos santos
thiago alves
anderson silva
terry etim
cheik kongo
michael bisping
rashad evans
paul taylor
kenny florian
loyoto machida

thats my final one

Not bad, but no GSP, Dan Hardy, or Marcus Davis? :p

[fightingfan]

What criteria are we going by?
The ability to strike without being hit back?

Anderson Silva and Lyoto Machida have to be at the top of any list with this in mind surely??

[MrWinstonChurchill]

Brock - landed some great shots on Randy, Frank and Heath!

My top 3 would be:

1. Anderson Silva

2. Lyoto Machida

3. James Irvin - HE WON BY KO IN LESS THAN 10 SECONDS USING A SUPERMAN PUNCH!!!!!
