Yes, it's time stamped.

I'm more impressed that Conor is more educated than American Fighters with the Mount Rushmore question...

 

[KarateYeah]

WHO DA FOOK IS DAT EX-FIGHTER

 

[Shaolin Alan]

Let me guess; he's going into fighter management/promoter for a ting...

 

[joy2day]

Let Alex beat a talented/skilled grappler, and I will be all in on his top P4P status. He's had some great showings.

Depending on what we are going off of I guess it does make some sense. Royce Gracie was the OG and the GOAT of the very early days, Pioneer of the sport. Chuck Liddell was a big draw in his day and perhaps has a more memorable face than some of the other contenders. I think there are a few other guys that could just as easily be there instead of Chuck Liddell tho. Rousey as much as I dislike her and kind of wish WMMA was not in the UFC... She is the entire reason WMMA is in the UFC and was becoming a bigger draw with every win, if she kept winning who knows how big of a star she would have become. Rousey vs Cyborg might have done crazy numbers.

Then of course Conor changed the sport a lot himself and a lot of current MMA fighters say Conor is the reason they got into MMA.

He ain't gonna say Islam is p4p number one that's for sure.

[MarioLemieux]

You mean he doesn't want the protege of his mortal enemy who he still weeps about 6 years later to be P4P #1?

Well I for one am shocked.

 

[VinceArch]

Oh well if the coked up Irish drunk says so.

 

[PeterGriffin]

But will he bet $1m on it?

 

[Bowel-forged Stool]

De faustest weurkin’ myind in de gayme, yeeeh?

 

[Bobby Boulders]

All I know is, holding those BKFC events is Europe might be a huge win for them

 

[Neck&Neck]

There hasn’t been a skilled grappler at 205 since DC retired. They don’t exist at 205.

I don't consider either one anywhere near a GOAT but at least Alex defended his title.

Pereira is not recognizing Conor here, it's just Conor trying to keep his name in the news.
