Do you see any potential weight class GOATs in the making?

-Cody can do it, and as an undefeated Champ with possible future wins over TJ, Rivera, Sterling, Moraes at 135.. plus his current wins over Dom, Almeida and Mizugaki would def make him the 135lb UFC GOAT. Then maybe a fight with MM at 125, win and defend that once against Joe B or Cejudo. Go up to 145, fight Max or whomever the Champ is, maybe fight and beat Edgar, Cub, Aldo, Ortega, Johnson, and Burgos at 145. Superfight with Conor at 145 or 155.

-Max can do it, with possible future wins over Edgar, Johnson, Burgos, Yair, Hall, Mendes, Ortega at 145.. plus his current wins over Aldo, Pettis, Cub, and Lamas.. maybe fight Cody or Dom coming up from 135 to 145, with wins would def solidify him as the 145lb UFC GOAT. Then maybe a fight with Nate at 155, rematch Conor at 155, maybe fight and beat Barboza, Yair, Chiesa, Ferguson, rematch Poirier all at 155.

-MM, Woodley, DC and Stipe won't be beat for awhile in their weight class.. but they won't be looked at as GOAT by most.

-Bopo, Lee, Whittaker and Luke have the ability to become greats, but not goats.

How the hell Conor be LW's goat with one fight in this division over 3-2 UFC champion? Please explain?

As many said, Hollywood can. If he gets past The Answer and Junior x2, he could dominate the FW division for a long time, Maybe even clean it and be allowed to go up (too bad that going up is only possible if your boss likes you.) Hopefully, he will fight twice per year, at least (champs get tougher competition, therefore need more recovery/planning time).

Stipe might be a huge force in the HW division, but the lack of talent there will make many dubious. Hopefully, he could fight in other orgs, other HW (roided as hell), maybe some open tournament. That would make wonders for his legacy!
