Most GOAT candidates have problems with their case:
- Losses
- Steroid violations (Jones)
- Weak strength of schedule / fighting cans (Fedor, Jones)
- Not enough title defenses (DC. Khabib)
- Point fighting (GSP)
- Squeaking by with wins / close victories (GSP)
- Rapid decline in career in older age (Silva, Fedor)
- Retired too early (Khabib)
Kamarudeen so far has none of these issues.
If he gets past Khamzat, the division is pretty clear. He could easily string together 4 more defenses.
At that point he's the GOAT, undisputed.
Israel Adesanya was shaping up to be a GOAT, but then he kinda got son'd by a subpar LHW champ, which kind of sullies his case.
Kinda nuts, huh? Kamaru can be the GOAT if he plays his cards right. Weird to think about.
** GOAT fighter, Conor is undisputed GOAT prize fighter in the UFC.
