It really is, people usually use the level of competition to put younguer fighters as goats, i don't agree with that logic 100%, but its a really good point when you look at the lw-below classes. Lw is a pretty old division by now but to be real it was basically estinct back in the day and only now its tge premiere division, its kinda crazy to think that for a long part of the history of this sport the deepest talent pool there is ( lighter weight classes) was basically untouched, fw and below werent even in the ufc 15 years ago. Im not saying guys like aldo, cruz and etc didn't have skill, they still do and are very competitive in the divisions they are, but they never faced close to the level of competition we have today in their "primes"
