Is Kamaru Usman GOAT WW if he beats Burns?

[andrejxvii]

If Kamaru defeats Burns, he will tie the longest win streak in welterweight history (12) currently held by GSP.

Given the current number of top 10's he has beaten and how dominant he's looked, what do you think Usman has to do to be the greatest welterweight of all time?

 

[Askren’s chin]

Get 6 more defences

Yup is say so. His body of work is more impressive than GSP.

GSP loses to Leon and Burns and probably Colby

 

[Bubzeh]

Sherdog has such an obsession with goats.

 

[TheMessiah]

He already is the Goat WW but will solidify it with even more wins

 

[TheChosenKing]

GSP has 13 Titles and 18 Top 10 wins. So no.

Usman might move in ahead of Robbie Lawler tho.

 

[MMAcolyte]

Lol not by a long shot . People were saying the exact same thing about Woodley after a couple defenses. Smh you kids never learn.

Lol at comparing Lawler who was gifted wins against Condit and Hendricks to Usman. GSP has more top 10 wins but the division was weaker, Dan Hardy challenged for the title lmao.

 

[PerpetualMotionMachine]

I don’t even have Usman above Hughes, let alone GOAT

Usman's win streak includes Hayder Hassan, Emil Meek, Alexander Yakovlev, Sergio Moraes and Warrley Alves.

You can't compare it to GSP's. Even the weaker wins in his streak like Dan Hardy were still good fighters on win streaks.

Maia was sending him flying back with overhands.
I'd bet on Jake shields to beat him much easier than he did Hendo.

Back then like 5 yrs ago? Lol. Pretty sure I remember Woodley losing to Jake Shields and Nate Marquardt during GSPs era.

 

[Sad Dad]

Yup is say so. His body of work is more impressive than GSP.

Why would gsp lose to Colby? Lol gsp easily jabs his way to a dec against Colby

Who talked about Woodley and Shields lol? Shields is a good win for GSP, one of his best.

Yeah like Fedor would lose to Stipe, DC, Ngannou, Black Beast, Werdum, JDS, Cain, Overeem...

These games are fun!

Take away parts of Georges' skillset and you get Kamaru Usman. Hendricks who fought GSP and GSP himself would beat Colby, Usman and Burns. Hell, I could see Shields in his prime beating those guys too.

Woodley is Usman's best win and he couldn't hang with the GSP's era of WWs. So who are all these next level WWs that Usman is facing. Maia? Masvidel?

I fail to see what Colby has to threaten GSP with that Josh Koscheck didn't have tbh.

more volume striking but it's not like Colby has really good striking, he just throws a lot of strikes... It wouldn't matter because GSP would be dumping Colby on his ass at will.

I think if someone comes forward like Colby does against GSP they get their nose jabbed in.

Terrible matchup for Colby imo.
