2 Mirko Cro Cop Filipovic

What is Lesnar doing at number 2? Mirko would kick his head of his shoulders!

Mirko is the greatest heavyweight striker ever in mma

l think he deserve to be on second places, one of the best striker ever he really is

he's one of the best hearted fighters on the planet the guys got so much respect to add to his amazing fight resume

Has held multiple titles in the UFC, and has been around, and still is. - skullgangjewelz

5 Cain Velasquez Cain Velasquez

Cain should be at number 2- what the hell is lesnar even doing in the top 15?

He solidly is number 2. Definitely ahead of Mirco, Lesnar and others. And the 3rd is Stipe Miocic!

Gets hurt to much, yet I still consider him the best heavyweight fighter in MMA.

Velasquez is the greatest heavyweight in mma I have ever watched fight. I believe he would have beaten fedor in his prime

6 Antonio Rodrigo Noguiera

Big nog should be at number 2 second only to fedor- what a joke having lesnar at number 2 when he shouldn't even be on this list.

He fought so many wars, and was the only fighter to hold both pride and ufc heavyweight titles, enough said

Beaten everybody, and is the only to hold Heavyweight titles in Pride & UFC. - skullgangjewelz

7 Fabricio Werdum Fabricio Werdum

This list is ridiculous. Werdum and Velasquez are the best, hands down

Should be #1. Beat Fedor and Cain Velasquez and at the moment is the UFC heavyweight champion.

Why isn't he number one? Schooled Cain Velasquez for the heavyweight title and made Fedor's overrated ass submit!

He beat fedor and cain
