Could A Flyweight Ever Be Considered "Baddest Man On The Planet"?

[bogeyj]

could you ever consider a guy as tall as your kid sister to be a "bad motherfucker" or the "baddest man on the planet"?

or are phrases like that only used for heavyweights? guys you could actually make the argument for that they could beat up anyone on earth in a 1v1 with no weapons

 

[JarlSkuld]

No. But even though I weigh roughly twice as much as Figuereido, and I would not want to fight him.

Jarl

 

[Cameron]

No

Better question… can a woman’s atom weight ever be considered the baddest man on the planet?

 

[krelianx]

That wording makes it sound stupid.

There was a time in which DJ was the P4P top fighter in the world, though.

To be the baddest man on the planet means you could fuck every single other man up if necessary.

i don’t see Brandon Moreno doing that to Ngannou.

If there's going to be a 'Baddest Man on the Planet' or a 'World's Most Dangerous Man', then yep, the criteria means they can ruin absolutely anyone and everyone on the, ahem, 'planet'.

So yeah, it can't be a flyweight.

The lightest fighter it's allowed to be is Genki Sudo.

If he could beat the reigning HW, then...

So, no.

Figueiredo looks like a scary mofo in the cage, then you see him standing next to a average person and find out he used to be a hair dresser.

Nobody but a HW or a VERY dominant large LHW could be considered the baddest man on the planet. By definition, weight classes are in place to protect fighters and the HWs are the top of the food chain.

What would be more impressive?
If Francis Ngannou beat up 3 235lbs guys at the same time in a bar fight?
Or
If some Flyweight (in street clothes) beat up 3 185lbs guys at the same time in a bar fight?
..bobbing and weaving with like 3 precision jabs…

I’d vote the latter

 

[Queenofchaos]

He would be the baddest little man on the planet

 

[SakurabasEar]

No, moreno is an excellent fighter but still a manlet. As second class citizens, manlets cannot achieve such accolades

 

[Wokeogan]

no

 

[Mammothman]

Only the UFC heavyweight champion can have that title and maybe Jon Jones.

Then why do people on Sherdog always claim that HW is so weak and unskilled?
Fighters are literally starving themselves, sweating out several pounds of body weight, just to fight at LHW or MW. Are they doing that because it’s more challenging and HW is too easy?

 

[shh]

No.
