GSP might have two defeats, but his strenght of schedule is unmatched by anyone else in the sport's history, and that alone puts him above Khabib. Plus he fought a bunch of all-time greats, he's a two time WW champion and a one time MW champion.
He fought killers his entire career, and humiliated most of them.
I like Khabib a lot, and have him in my top 5, but GSP is the solid #1 GOAT, without questions, and followed by The Last Emperor.
No. GSP first won the belt from the WW GOAT at the time, ended up defending the title for many years, and even though he cherry-picked he beat Bisping for a second belt.
Khabib won the belt against a realtor from Long Island (war Al) and defended three times.
Biased opinion will vary! As someone who is neutral, I think khabibie has better record because he didn’t receive much damage and dominated his foes at a unbelievable paste and got better every fight and fought during prime USADA and... let the flame begin!
It was only at the end of his career that Khabib started fighting top ranked fighters. GSP fought ranked fighters basically every fight he had in the UFC
