Before that he explains why he considers Mousasi and Jones alltime greats. Doesn't consider GSP and Anderson as that great, but sees himself as a top 5 GOAT.

Cliff: He does not exclude Anderson because of roids (as he has Jones on his list) but considers him one dimensional. While I would not argue with anybody excluding cheaters from their alltime great list, it's just insane to not have Anderson on the list if you are allowing for cheaters. I am not even a big fan of Andy but his finishes - over way better competition that what DJ is fighting - should put him in any GOAT conversation.

Or does DJ think Ray Borg, Wilson Reis and Cariaso are better wins than Hendo, Belfort, Maia, Franklin etc?

And I won't even start about GSP, even his staunchest haters have him above DJ. The competition alone...
 
What competition has DJ faced at 125? Move up and actually fight someone equally talented as yourself before you call yourself greater than Anderson or GSP.

Sit down young man.
 
He picked Gegard and Jones instead, big deal.

He said Anderson and GSP were also good, but preferred the other 2 cause he likes how they fight everywhere. Wasn't hating at all. Just giving his personal top 5.

Interview was also well over a year ago.

He is seriously questioning GSP skill set? I am at a loss..
 
Are you really surprised that a guy who thinks he should be paid $2 mil a fight when he can't even pull 150k PPV buys says more dumb shit?

The only person in the world (not counting trolls) that thinks Mighty Mouse is above GSP on the GOAT rankings is Joe Rogan, and even he only says that when he's baked out of his mind.
 
The irony.

Can’t wait for MM vs. Sergio Pettis to main event the next TUF Finale
 
Well, everyone can have their own opinions on this topic on what classifies fighters in the goat category. With that said.....GSP and Anderson are top 5 goats and it can't be disputed otherwise. DJ is funny.
 
This dude faces people like Cariaso, Tim something, Reis, Moraga and Ray Berg in world title fights in a division that is now almost seven years old. Shut up.
 
Lets look at the facts.


The manlet divisions on average have a way weaker talent pool...Look @ 125lbs, completely talentless.


Most average size people who do sports are around 5'10(Unless MMA becomes big in countries where average height is smaller, the talent pool for manlet mma will stay small)....and weight around LightWeight to WelterWeight(when they have less fat since most average people are fatasses or skinny fat so when they workout, they will be either lightweights or welterweights).....Thus these are the most talented divisions in theory.


However reality, our eyes shows u that LW-LHW are really really talented....Thus these fighters should automatically be ranked above 125lbers.


Also lets look at it from a what takes more skill view.


The higher the weight class the easier is to get KO'd, the harder it is to not gas......Bigger fighters need more skill/talent to not get KTFO or gas.


In Manlet MMA, Chin/Cardio isn't an issue.....I seen Demetrius Johnson get hit by nobodies but it doesn't matter since KO power is non existent....I seen Manlets just spam shots but it doesn't matter since Cardio isn't an issue when you're a manlet....So to me that show's the bigger fighters have way more skill to manage all of this.



Here's a visual for you

Lightweight-HW MMA = F1

You're a 1000hp @ 1550lbs car.....Any small mistake and you will lose position...You have to keep an eye on your gas, temperatures, tires, etc because it all matters.


Manlet MMA = RC racing

You have no power, so any mistake is like whatever tbh......You don't have to keep your eye on the gas,temps because at this scale none of that shit really matters.


Ill try a Video Game Example for you

Lightweight-HW MMA = Dark Souls/Demon Souls

Fighting is hard mode...You can get finished at anytime...You always have to look @ your stamina and gauge it so you won't gas out.


Manlet MMA = Candy Crush/Cod

Fight is easymode.....no real strategy needed at all....just mindless action.







Sorry it just takes more skill to be a larger fighter...Not only do you fight against stronger competition but you have to be a master of your cardio/defense abilities since any shot can KO you.
