Anderson Silva Report Abuse
The reigning UFC middleweight champion, Silva is hands-down the best fighter in a weight class that is short on depth compared to the welterweight and lightweight divisions. Whether it’s using muay thai to shatter Rich Franklin’s nose or submitting distinguished grapplers like Travis Lutter and Dan Henderson, “The Spider” has shown a penchant for ending fights in dramatic fashion.

Dan Henderson Report Abuse
After bringing Pride FC championships in two separate weight classes to the UFC, Henderson has fought the best competition the sport has to offer. His first two UFC matches since the fall of Pride FC were title fights against Quinton Jackson and Anderson Silva. Although both were losses, Henderson redeemed himself with victories against Rousimar Palhares and perpetual contender Rich Franklin.

Nate Marquardt Report Abuse
Marquardt has not just been defeating his UFC opponents recently, he has been beating them up with an aggression the likes of which we haven't yet seen from the former Pancrase champion. Marquardt’s TKO of Wilson Gouveia was a thing of beauty as he finished his opponent with a flurry of punches, kick and knees.

Yushin Okami Report Abuse
Okami is known as the last man to best Anderson Silva, although his victory was due to a disqualification of Silva due to an illegal upkick. Okami uses tremendous strength and size to wear down his middleweight opponents. Although he is often a slow starter, he has all the tools to challenge Silva’s reign at the top of the division.

Demian Maia Report Abuse
Possibly the best Brazilian Jiu Jitsu player in all of mixed martial arts (MMA), Maia displays an aggressive style of grappling that entertains even the most uneducated MMA viewer. He has a perfect 10-0 record and has won all five of his UFC fights by submission. His most recent victory was a 2:37 destruction of Chael Sonnen by triangle choke.
