So what would you guys say?
This goes for UFC and Pride mainly. I guess Strikeforce and maybe Dream titles are legit, too. I'd also say a Grand Prix win counts as that's a pretty big achievement.
Or if that gets too complicated, who's the best guy to never win a UFC title? For guys who have competed in the UFC, no Reem or Fedor, or whoever.

isn't it that when you say "to never win a title" is that the fighter is probably retired, had the chance/s but never won, or both? oh yeah, probably it's the difference on how we understood the topic. fitch is getting a shot soon (i think) and his career is far from over. jds hadn't even fought for a title so can he be considered a fighter "to never win a title?" just my thoughts

Marquardt would be a great champ if Silva was not so dominant. His loss to Chael I belive was not him lacking skill, but him underestimating Chael's abillity, and overestimating his takedown D

i vote Jon Fitch. He would beat everyone in the world @ 170 aside from GSP.

I want to say Fitch, but there are a lot of Japanese fighters that never won belts that were just flat out amazing fighters.
