B-Hop on those who call themselves the GOAT(MM fans calm down)

MM was already a top bantamweight.

This thread is pretty dumb.
 
People want to discredit MM and say "look at his competition who did he beat?". Fedor had some good wins but he fought in PRIDEs heavyweight division that had Igor, Sergie, Overeem, Barnett, and Kerr and he didn't fight any of them.

It's also a near lock he was juicing in Pride like literally everyone else. In between top ranked wins, he beat huge guys with literally no grappling experience, but people like the TS call that amazing instead of an unfair fight. What other goat fought 0-0 people in his prime instead of competition like the guys you mentioned?
 


He's talking shit about Floyd, but it's very relevant to this "Mighty Mouse is the greatest fighter ever and if you don't agree you're a racist bigot who hates short people and doesn't appreciate technique" narrative that's been put out there


over 15 years ago, a green string bean 6-1 Anderson Silva defeated the #1 ranked p4p fighter Hayato "Mach" Sakurai and earned a unanimous decision in Japan at 168lbs. He dominated the stand up, walked him down, beat him up off his back and almost choked him out.



Nobody cared, Matt Hughes was elevated to #1 instead, Pride took a few years to give him a chance and never gave him a fair shake, and he was regulated to knocking out fools over in England like he was Conor McGregor.

Nonetheless he kept at it and put together the longest win streak in UFC history at 16 going up 37lbs to defeat UFC Hall of Famers Stephan Bonnar and Forrest Griffin at 205. Rather than cry and complain about how he didn't get the credit he was due, he elevated himself to a new level and stole the star power of Vitor & Hendo by making light work of them

If and only if Mighty Mouse returns to 135 to beat Cody, TJ, and/or Cruz... then and only then should he be considered one of the greatest UFC champions. Let alone the best MMA fighter ever...

It's not a lock at all really. He was getting pretty stringent drug testing for his Sambo competitions.

that "huge guy" had over 30 mma fights before he fought Fedor even the one you're thinking of was not 0-0
 
Love Anderson Silva but your logic is not sound at all. He doesn't have to do exactly what Anderson did to be considered GOAT. Anderson had his path and DJ has his own. This argument is herp derperish.
 
Also the video you posted doesn't even support your argument much.
