    Although he has double digit losses, he has huge wins including multiple title runs and is the most beloved fighter of all-time.

    Nobody says he's the best of all-time, but considering the whole package, he's one of the most key figures in the sports history.

      Even Chuck wouldnt be up there, he fought in a weak LHW division, of the best were in Pride, Shogun had a better career than Chuck

        Chuck's impact > Shogun's impact

                I would say Shogun had more impact

                  I'd love to hear your argument (besides Shogun beating him).

                  Liddell is probably the biggest mainstream star in the sports history. Any "mount rushmore of MMA" has to include him.

                  Shogun is a great fighter and is the best 205er in the world....but so what? Mount Rushmore deal isn't simply about who is the best pure fighter. If it were, Royce Grace wouldn't be on. And Fedor wouldn't be on anymore.

                    who gives a shit about casual fan mainstream impact or whatever you want to call it, we're talking about the greats in the sport

                    Chuck was never even the number 1 in his division, not even close to number 1 fighter in the world

                    Royce was the number 1 fighter in the sport for years, Shogun was a top P4P fighter in the sport, and now is still number 1 in his division

                    Royce, Sakuraba, Shogun, Fedor, And1, GSP, Hughes > Chuck and Randy

                    Hendo > Randy easily

                    Kimbo Slice had a greater 'impact' than the majority of MMA fighters, so just stop with the casual fan, mainstream, BS and talk like a fan of the sport

                      No matter how much you loathe it...Chuck is up there.

                      Anyway who would be your four rushmores?

                        Where is Matt Whoghes in all of this? I am sure Hendo #1, but who is #2. Captain American or Matt Hughes?

                            Watching him nowadays though, it's a mixture of emotions...sad, apathy, KICK ASS AGAIN, :ninja2:

                              no doubt Hendo is one of the GOAT. never a big talker, just went out and did what he had do to. his run through the welterweight tourney Pride had back in 05 was awesome.

                                All the great 205ers were in Pride during Chuck's reign in the UFC. You see what happened when he fought in Pride and when the Pride guys came to the UFC.
