No. I've watched almost all of BJ's career.
You must be still new to mma
First off, this is all an assumption. Only time will tell.
Who is then?
Uh. This thread isn't ignorant, I know fully well what BJ did in his past and I know fully well that Caol Uno isn't that great of a fighter, if he were dropped into today's fight game he'd be irrelevant. He was only able to succeed because the fight game wasn't as developed.
B.J. Peen notable LW wins: Diego Sanchez, Gomi, Sean Sherk, Kenny Florian, Joe Stevenson.
Pettis is the LW GOAT
IMO, the title of LW GOAT is ripe for the taking. There's an argument for BJ and Gomi, and I guess Edgar since he beat BJ twice in LW title fights, then again Bender beat Edgar twice in LW title fights, and now Pettis has beaten Bender twice. As interesting as BJ's career has been with all his fights in other weightclasses, etc., I don't think he's got a firm grasp on being LW Goat I think Pettis could take the mantle and really solidify himself as the division's best ever with a couple more defenses. If he beats RDA and Khabib, to go with his two wins over Bender, his win over Gil, and being champion in both WEC and UFC, I think he'd have a strong argument.
At least there's someone out there that doesn't just blindly say that BJ's the GOAT.
So who is?
As opposed to just blindly saying he is not?
