Former PRIDE star and WEC middleweight champion Paulo Filho once was one of the best fighters in the world, but never really achieved what his teammates expected him to.
For years, training partners claimed Filho was the best 185-pound fighter on the planet, but he would never really have the opportunity to prove it since he was a teammate of UFC kingpin Anderson Silva -- and even Silva called Filho the best when both were at the top.
However, Filho’s career derailed due to depression, and he claims that the addiction to Rohypnol had nothing to do with it: Filho blames that on the use of cocaine after his first fight with Chael Sonnen.
