I've seen some of his matches but don't really watch UFC that much. He's really, really good in the Octagon. I'd give him a 9.5/10 just for being such a damn good striker.

I would pull the trigger on 10/10. I would have given him a 9.5 for the legal shit he is pulling now a days, but he was just the best in the entire game. Plus, he has one badass clothing line. I thought he was only 5 time champ? Oh well.

I can't give him anything other than a 10. He came back after a year off at age 44 and beat Tim Sylvia and Gonzaga pretty easily. He's not a freak of nature, but he's the biggest exception to the rule.

Randy has great striking ability and he's still in great shape and the man's is in fuckin 40s and is still destroying fighters almost half his age. I would've gave Coultre a 10 but I'm really not much a fan of him. 9.0/10

9.5 for me,. The guy is a legend but I can't give him a perfect 10/10 but he was born to be a fighter and has a natural ability in striking and there isn't nothing else to it really.

8.3/10 i'm gonna get some heat for this but seriously the guy is overrated the only guys he's beaten that really impress me are tito ortiz, tim silvia and chuck lidell.

Even though liddell beat him twice.

Don't get me wrong the guy is fucking great, but definately not a 10/10 or a 9/10. He gets very overrated.

Are you sure about that. Didn't Couture beat Liddell the first time and then Liddell beat him the second time cause Couture slipped.

as of now, no one, maybe in a couple of years anderson silva or GSP. To be a 10/10 you have to be perfect in EVERY technique in MMA. Couture is great all most but not perfect at all. Silva would be the closest.

And if the guy is a 10/10 how come he's 16-8

Are you sure about that. Didn't Couture beat Liddell the first time and then Liddell beat him the second time cause Couture slipped.

Couture won at UFC 43 then lost at 52 and 54 both by knockout
