Can we all agree that Poatan has passed up Anderson?

Yes Anderson has a lot of defenses at MW vs the likes Thales Lotus and Patrick Coat…


But Anderson best wins at LHW were vs Forrest “got wrecked by Keith Sardine” Griffin and James “Sandlot” Irwin…

Alex is wrecking former non-fluke LHW champs like Jan and Jiri x 2 and Jemele Hill.

Poatan > Anderson by a country mile and no suspensions either.

Poatan at LHW is better than Anderson if that's what you're inferring. Overall no.
 
I still can't tell if Perreira is a legitimate mixed martial artist or if he's a one-dimensional fighter protected from grapplers. It's way too early to pronounce him anything.
And before you will be able to do anything with that thought he will be gone!
Totally mind fucking us all and leaving us without answers!
 
I'm positive not everyone here can all agree that the earth is round.
This. 1 in 5 adult Americans are illiterate and 1 in 2 adult Americans are literate below a 6th grade level.

And they all post their political opinions on Sherdog.
 
No. He’s great no doubt but what Anderson did for such a long time puts him way above. Anderson, GSP and Fedor are untouched in their ability to dominate at a high level for so long. Poatan not long ago got iced by Isreal

passed up; transitive verb. : to let go by without accepting or taking advantage of.
I really should stop googling words.
I just get confused by them!

10 title defenses > 3 title defenses...

You forgot to mention Hendo, Belfort, Sonnen, Franklin, etc.

I like Poatan but he won't have time to overtake Anderson. BUT if he becomes 3-division champ who knows...
 
I think the only thing that Poatan has surpassed Anderson is draw/fame and thats because o the actual landscape of the UFC and MMA. The sport is way bigger nowadays with social media, sheer volume of UFC fights and all... and in that Poatan is the biggest active star.
If Anderson did today what he was doing between 2006-2012 there would be people lactating on the internet (16-0, 14 finishes). Yes, he had 2 boring decisions against Leites and Maia... like Poatan had the Jan fight. But outside of that Anderson was starching people and even Sonnen 1 (he got beat up there) helped his aura with the last minute triangle.

Hendo= over the hill at that point, 50 fights in

Belfort=UFC 7 veteran off TRT

Sonnen= Shale beat the brakes off Silva for 4.7 rounds

Franklin= self taught Math teacher
