King Mo

how is it not??? Gracie would arguably prove he is the greatest on the ground in the whole division. And if you know anything about boxing all you would need to watch is the Prangley fight and Randleman fight to know that his boxing is above average at the very least. He has a slick style with a solid jab.... You probably would love to watch king mo fight Page but if Gracie beats Mo he shouldnt be in there with Page? stupid arguement to say he doesnt belong with the best if he beats the guy with the best mma wrestling in the whole division....

when he said "no its not" he's referring to your statement that King Mo's wrestling is greater than anyone in the UFC at 205 and id argue that isnt the case... Bones would out-wrestle him in my opinion..

Yeah, I would say Jones has better MMA wrestling. King Mo has a ton of great match ups in the UFC. I'm sure he will fight Page and Rashad at some point. Hopefully within 2 years.

Him and Rashad are good friends... Unless they are going for a belt I certainly don't see them ever fighting.

King Mo is basically a poor man's Rampage.....in terms of fighting style & personality.
He would be mid tier in the UFC at best, more likely a gatekeeper.

You mean better and younger Rampage? The guy trains with some of the best kickboxers in the world, he has some of the best wrestling credentials in MMA, he actually uses his wrestling in fights to mix things up, he is a better athlete at this point than Page... Also his personality doesn't involve holding down Japanese girls and farting in their faces... I am a really big Page fan... I think Mo is a beast though and will be a future UFC champ and no.1 in the world at some point.

You're high, sir. Theres no way in hades King Mo will ever champ in the UFC at 205.
I'll gladly bet my entire participation on this site on that. The day he becomes champ, I will never come back here. lol

Say what you will... Just watch.
Jon Jones IS NOT A BETTER WRESTLER THAN KING MO!!! his throws are more effective but his double leg is not even close... No fault of his own he is very tall and the double leg does not need to be called upon as often as king mo's. That being said, Jon Jones is much better from a top position. But his takedowns are completely different. King mo beats Jon Jones in a collegiate wrestling match any day. But its all pointless, the best fighter hands down not making noise in the UFC is Roger Gracie. I usually take great wrestling over great JJ but Roger is not on the same planet as any other great JJ player. If Gracie stays on track he could very well be the UFC 205 champ within 2 years.

Big suprise ANOTHER LHW fighter that Rashad Evans will not fight.
The guy needs to move to MW where he does not have so many friends.

Rashad Evans' mma wrestling is better and more seamless than Mo's, and he's a traditional double leg guy.
And bringing up a fantasy college wrestling match to make your argument is weak.
It would be akin to making the argument that a downhill skier is more awesome at biathlon because he can crush at the downhill.
King Mo is one of the most underrated fighters, he got caught in the last fight but Feijao is no slouch and he was injured, I know there is no excuse but his wrestling alone is superior to even JOn Jones and he can strike well
King Mo is a Pan American champ wrestler...international wrestling is another level from college wrestling

Mo hasn't fought any great mma wrestlers yet. Hell, he hasn't fought anybody with a wrestling background yet. It's impossible to say that he's the best mma wrestler because of that. He's fought one dimensional strikers his entire young career.
Jon Jones has fought, and beaten, pretty highly credentialed wrestlers who have transitioned into mma, and outwrestled them within the fights.
People like you get way too hung up on credentials and you have to learn those credentials mean almost nothing in mma.
