"washed Up" "Overrated" "One Deminsional" "Bar Brawler" "Puncher Chance"-Shamrock, Andrei, Tim Sylvia, Al-Turk
Rashad, Chuck, Quinton, and Brock Lesnar are all who are prime examples in that list.
They call it mixed martial arts but they didn't really perfect anything by form or technique. You can get someone who practise BBJ, MT, and Greco for 6 months all the same time but wouldn't be nowhere near the level of someone who practice BBJ for 3 years. They are just learning the easy steps but don't really have the building blocks to be good. Or you clearly just get a guy who just has size and strength to his advantage or "knockout" power and just put him in the UFC. Someone who is knocking people left and right and has no skill is not a MMA. And him being able to knock out people who claim are MMA is clearly not trained the fundamental blocks of Martail Arts.
Perfect example of people who are well balanced in all areas and don't have the size or or brute strength to just punch it out (Like bar fighters) are
Fedor- Has trained in Sambo since he was a boy. Well balanced. His boxing could be better but quick and smart fighter. Also undfeated. Well balanced fighter.
Lyoto Machida-Trained in Shotokan(3rd Degree blackbelt), Sum(champion), BJJ(blackbelt), and Muy Thai. I would say he is the best example of a well balanced fighter.
George St Pierre-Kyokushin(Black Belt) has unbelieve talent of a wrestler for never wrestled i his life. Great Takedown defense.
A "Bar Brawler" is someone who just trade blows and rely on power to knockout someone to win. A real fighter is not going to just stand there and trade hits like an idiot.
Dealing with Martial Arts all my life I can tell who can fight and who can't and UFC is not a Sport its Entertainment and quite frankly I get pissed sometimes when they label themselves MMA.
Pride was a Mixed Martial Arts Sport and missed watching that.
