Current fighters who deserve the HoF

[BanMe]

I'd like to know your picks for the top 5 people you think should be the next to be inducted into the UFC's Hall of Fame. To narrow the scope a bit, I'll say that they have to be current UFC fighters, or they have retired in 2016 and their last fight was with the UFC. This is also only considering their past accomplishments and not what they could do (IE: no fair saying that Jon Jones should go in if he regains the title or gets the HW title).

Can we all agree that Anderson Silva deserves to go in? Who else is on that list? Hendo? Might Mouse? Ronda?

I'm interested to see your top 5.

Frankie

I was thinking Frankie but I dont think he is there yet. closing in though. he needs another title and a good reign.

I feel you. I think he has done enough, but I just love watching the guy fight. Hendo has arguably done less than he has in the UFC.

How about this- and I know this breaks OP's rules but if Frankie beats Aldo at 200 do you think he would make it in in your eyes?

Jon Jones, Anderson Silva, and GSP would be first ballot, no questions asked inductees.

Then I guess you go Hendo, Ronda, Vitor as well.

I still feel he isnt there yet. when he beats Aldo (love Aldo, LOVE him, but Frankie takes the re-match and Aldo retires) I think he has to hold the FW belt and defend it at least once.

so he is 3 - 4 fights away imo. and to be fair, I am not a big fan of Frankie-two-times. his last 3 - 4 fights have been great though.

He did defend the lightweight belt twice, which is no small feat considering how undersized he is for that division. If he wins the FW belt (even if he doesn't defend it) I don't think you can argue that he is a HOFer. Belts in 2 different weight classes including 3 wins against BJ Penn and (possibly) one against Aldo... I think Frankie should be mentioned in the all-time p4p conversation if that stuff happens.
