"They say they are champions in their category. You are champion or you're not."

"You say that you are the best 'pound-for-pound.' And then you go to the bar and all 20 of the bouncers can kick your ass. 'But man, I'm the best pound-for-pound!' That's why heavyweight division is royal."

He's not wrong, and P4P discussion, like GOAT discussion, is based on opinion.
 
True in a way, not buying the "all the bouncers could kick your ass" part though. My dad was a bouncer and has zero fighting ability, he's also a big pansy lol.

they chose the right thumbnail for that video.
 
So what he said his opinion
You got a problem go and talk with him

And also he never said that smaller division are not champions,the fuck are you on?
 
He's wrong. However there has always been more prestige to heavy weight. Which is why the ufc is so shit now. This dates back to heavy weight boxing and being essentially the baddest man on the planet.

If this is recent. I think what he actually means is. P4P 1 right now is DJ. And random bouncers would whip his ass. So how can DJ be P4P.

That’s my interpretation of the thing.
 
He's not wrong. The worst HW could clean out LW in one night back to back to back. I just like little guys more because agility and skill.
 
Well I do think the HW champs are in a class of their own due to the fact that they should be able to win fights against anyone - not hypothetically if they had so and so many pounds but as they are. Shame the UFC HW division is in the state it is tough. Really hard to get top athletes in that class without PEDs.
 
I'd say HW and Lhw

I don't see anyone beating JbJ
 
Ali, Tyson, Fedor maybe even Stipe.. all have been/are baddest men through the history of contact sports. Haven't heard anyone call MM or GSP that.
 
Yeah no shit, that's why I can't take the idea of a 5'3" dude being the GOAT or on the GOAT list seriously.

"They said that they are champions, but in their category. No, you are champion or you're not."
