To me only the true warrior goat in all honesty even though he lost so many fights, is ...

[true_fan]

BJ Penn because he never shied from a challenge win or lose, to me he is over Khabib, Fedor, Anderson and Jones not on my list and GSP is great but never tested himself against the killers. So in my book always Penn and then Khabib and Fedor who fought huge animals!

Who is the true warrior goat in ur book only and not others’?

Note: I read some of the replies and let me say it again “ in your own opinion” not other people opinions! Read the lines slowwwwwwwwwwwwly

I think the ultimate warrior is Cerrone, dude fought a ton of times and never cared who he went up against and a lot of times fought on short notice

With that logic its Saku. Saku never quit on the stool.

But BJ one of the goats imo. Bj > khabib

As much shit people like to give him Royce Gracie was one scrappy dude in the early days.

GSP never faced killers but fought your GOAT twice? Lol that's some strong logic

 

[Brood]

Testing yourself against bigger fighters is cool, but you kinda need to win to be considered GOAT.

I clicked on these thinking it was a Hendo thread.

BJ was a beast though.

Nothing surprises me when it’s TS.

" true warrior" goat is too much of a gray area that the label " goat" cant even apply.

I always was a Penn backer but he was " able to take on comers" from different weight classes during that era. Once he fought an enormous gsp in the 2nd fight - that whole theory goes out the window .

If you go to medical school and fail half your exams you don’t get to be a doctor just because you tested yourself.

BJ did duck Nik Lentz later in his career. Just sayin'.

I agree about Cerrone. I can't think of any other fighter who has taken as many short notice fights as Cowboy. The fact he did it across both lightweight and welterweight makes the feat even more impressive.

No serious MMA fan has BJ as the GOAT or even in the top 3.

 

[mmacrisis]

Glad you like BJ Penn, to each his own but honestly not sure how you can say GSP didn't test himself. Didn't he fight Hughes multiple times, Condit and pretty much anyone the UFC threw at him. Khabib never quit and was never caught cheating. Jones owned everyone in the LHW division for years, as did Silva and Fedor.....

Me thinks your logic is flawed.

Greatest fighter is Fedor. Nobody fights like that and goes undefeated for a decade.
