In This Thread: We Judge Fighters Based on Their Last 10 Fights

[Thuckey]

Benson Henderson

5-5

Seems like an average dude, loses to higher competition but holds his own against the lower ranked guys.


Conor McGregor

9-1

Very exciting fighter, beating some of the best in the world however has a stain on his record being finished by Nate Diaz. Came back to avenge the loss, but it will forever prevent him from being undefeated in the UFC. 2 belts is very impressive.


Anderson Silva

5-4-1

Clearly this fighters greatest issue is age. Very entertaining guy, delivers even when faced with a L and has shown a will to show up to fights on very short notice against anybody in the world. Ability to go beween MW and LHW increases number of interesting fights he could have, but with only win in the last 5 years things are looking like the twilight of his career for now.



etc.


Try to imagine that their last ten fights have been the only fights they have had in their careers. Might be hard to erase some biases but we can give it a shot anyways.

What do you got?

On the MLB app they compare teams and size them up based on their last 10 games played.

 

[BigMuffler]

Tyron Woodley

7-2-1

Fighting in one of the deepest divisions, only losses are a close split decision to Jake Shields (one of the WW GOATs) and to Rory. Wins over Lawler, Thompson, Maia, Condit, Gastelum, Dong, and Kos.

Amanda Nunes

8-2

Wins over Rousey, Tate, Shevchenko X2, McMann, and GDR. Losses are to Zingano who also beat Tate (no shame in that plus she gave Cat hell) and her only bad loss against D'Alelio.

TRUE LEGENDS who fight the very best and are woefully underappreciated. If only they had blonde hair and blue eyes!

 

[Medical Marijuana Man]

Fedor

6-4 should be 5-5

HW gatekeeper. Wins against cans overseas, can't beat top talent. Glass chin. Slow and not very old. Older fighters such as Anderson and Hendo still very competitive with todays talent, so age isnt a valid excuse.

I knew that someone would use this thread to shit on Fedor. Dude, Fedor in his last 10 fights was no longer himself.

Y you so salty? Dude answered ops question with facts.

 

[Thuckey]

Poor GOATs

 

[Not A Real Fan]

BJ Penn

2-7-1

Why do they keep giving this guy fights? Had a fantastic debut against Diego Sanchez. Lost his next two to Frankie Edgar (no shame in that). Then beats a then 5-4 Matt Hughes. Then doesn't win another fight.

This is actually a good idea.

The further in time you go, a fighter's past achievements become irrelevant as to what they are today. Who cares if so and so won a Grand Prix in the previous decade? It's really a fighter's last five fights that are relevant.

He pioneered the legendary Walking Tall stance.

 

[thobra]

Michael Bisping. 7-3, MW champ, beat two top 5 p4p ranked guys And one legend in his last 3, And by that had the most impressive 8 months in mw history. Has a serious eye injury, And is at the end of his career, but still keeps shocking.

[RDUBYA]

Takanori Gomi 3W - 7L. Just lol, where do they find these unskilled, chinless wonders?

 

[Moth Man]

Max Holloway 10W - 0L. Wow, the greatest feathwerweight ever.

 

[bad seed]

without that fluke Jouban loss, Platinum would be perfect for this. He would otherwise be 10-0, all wins by KO, and undoubtedly the GOAT. That's ok though; we shall consider Jouban as Perry's Ryo Chonan.

 

[Wizzlebiz]

Khabib. 10 - 0

By pure smother

 

[Otto!]

GSP 10-0

GOAT

 

[Dead Kennedy]

So you're only as good as your last 10 fights?

 

[The Best JG]

Y you so salty? Dude answered ops question with facts.

Actually he didnt do that at all since he said "his record is x but should be y" inserting his subjective opinion, the opposite of fact
