All Time GOAT poll

And fuck you too.

Just leave. If this is what you are now. That ban didn’t do shit. But I would have expected any sane person to get the hint.

Apparently not.
 
NEVER withstood the ultimate test of a true champ - the test of time (3 title defences?? - GTFO).
 
Khabib is an elite fighter, and I respect his insane accomplishments

But I have him below GSP, Fedor, Jones, Silva etc.. He did have potential to reach the level of those guy. Just my opinion

All due respect. But, how does Khabib rate higher than Aldo, or especially DJ?

Who knows. His days at 155 were pretty much over as he missed weight for his last fight and looked like death on the scale

170 would have been a lot harder for him than 155. Bigger dudes with actual wrestling defensively and offensively.
 
Disagree, not even discussing his achievements but just his set of skills, the guy will struggle against anyone he can't takedown because his striking is average.

The skillset of prime Jones, DC, Gustafsson, Whittaker, GSP, Koscheck, Hendricks, Aldo, Volk, Dom Cruz, etc are all bad matchups for Khabib because you're not going to be able to outwrestle them.

And we've seen how Khabib looks in the one elite MMA wrestler he faced in 29 fights in Tibau.
 
You forgot your meds again gramps
lol.

You’re seriously calling Khabib the GOAT, right now. That is what you’re saying right?

Otherwise, why would my post have triggered you?

And you’re talking to me about meds?

I would agree if he dominated someone with great grappling or TDD like Oliveira and Volkanovski. As much as I like Khabib he was a bit lucky with his matchups and unfortunately he left us with some unanswered questions.
 
I feel he fell short on a couple of points,

His top opponents suited his fighting style Conor ,Justin and Dustin all strikers the ones that could give him a go in the wrestling he couldn't finish and they weren't top level.

Not moving up a weight division and fighting the champ and wining is a must if you want to be considered the goat, How he battled to make 155 shows that he should of been fighting at 170 anyway.

I also do believe loosing his father played a roll in his early retirement as fighting at 170 is something he wanted
 
He for sure is the greatest LW of all time.

I do admire the amount of “fuck you” and annoyance GIFs you can pull out at the drop of a hat tho lol
Why the fuck are you moving the goalposts right now?

A friendly piece of advice.

Walk away right NOW.
 
Wow such a new topic. Never heard this been parroted around here ever on the boards before.
 
Khabib is the LW GOAT and you can also consider him as the MMA GOAT ( Jon might be on top of the list )
it is not how many title defenses he had , it is about how he always dominated his opponents
 
That’s what you come back with?

Come on, G-Ball.

How about you prove to all of SD right now the levels of your erudition.

Debate me. Or..

Just fuck the right off you ignorant fool.

This is not a good look for you. And you don’t even realize it.

I don't know about that but it's a fair/ possible point. Definitely could've factored on him sitting on his promise.
Khabib couldve....probably would've but didn't finish checking the boxes to be in goat conversation.
I find it disappointing to see khabib not continue in his prime , rack of a few more defenses and step up a rung and beat a relevant welter.

We can't imagine it would've happened.

I think when Islam does it, it will make it easier to imagine.
 
Legacy wise, he hasn't done enough to be considered the GOAT. I agree 100 percent that based on what I saw, he was the best fighter that we've ever seen in the UFC.
