I wouldn't put Fitch in with the likes of Werdum Maia. He's got good wrestling though

im a huge serra fan and his bjj is very good, but he hasn't subbed anyone in mma since 2002.

nick diaz once it hits the mat, but his takedowns are lacking.

I agree, and also I think people give grapplers too much credit for being good grapplers.
I think the Gracies get way to much credit for being the Basis for the sport alah ambassadors of it. Teaching is alot different then full on action. I love the Gracies but they get way to much credit for beating up Ken Shamrock for a couple years.
Also GSP isnt on this list and hes one of the best takedown, gnp, ground control fighters in the game.
I agree with the rest of the list, but Grappling is sucha broad question...
Phil Davis is a great wrestler grappler... Rashad Evans...
This list could go on and on, Randy Couture... Geezus, for miles...
You said Grappler not submission artist.

:lol:
shinya aoki would out grapple the s*it out of melendez. put them on a mat and see what happens. also put them in a ring in japan and melendez would be f*cked.
and yes, aoki would out grapple bj with ease.
