Fedor had a 32-0 record before fighthing 3 PED users

[migeru29]

And after that... everything went back to normality with his winning streak.
PED users can really screw clean athletes. Tibau was about to ruin Khabib's perfect record as well.
Respect great and honest fighters.
Fedor is the greatest (clean) fighter of all time.

 

[Ideanudge]

He was fighting ped users before his loses

 

[Sweater of AV]

It was just a minor bump in the road for the GOAT.

 

[RudimarChute]

Fedor GOAT

 

[Fatback96]

Pretty sure the people he fought in Pride were on way better juice than whatever Werdum, Hendo, and Bigfoot were on.

 

[Vegesus44]

Jones was never "off the steroids".

 

[2004 account]

Most Definitely

Despite having fought many ped users before that, when he left his prime was when the cheaters started even having a chance of success against him.


My goat list:
Fedor
Gsp
Dc
Khabib
Dj/Aldo

 

[Harmonica]

Fedor is an MMA icon, and that's putting it mildly.

 

[Vulcan]

29-27 Fabio Maldonado

 

[Barteh]

PED usage have nothing to do at all with GOAT status of any fighter whatsoever.

Remember when DC seemingly came out of nowhere to win the GP and it kinda felt like a let down because it wasn't one of our favorites winning?
Look at this dude now. Holy shit.

Listen. I don't believe PED's make you a better fighter in terms of skill but if that PED user already have a high skill level then he will have advantage over the clean fighter.
I understand Werdum and Henderson are no joke in terms of skill but clearly if they are using PED's that's a big advantage.

oh yeah? So Lance Armstrong great GOAT career completely ruined and his reputation totally damaged after he got caught but not an MMA fighter? Interesting...

Armstrong was never the GOAT cyclist. He's still universally recognized as the GOAT tour de france rider by ANY serious cyclist fan.

If you don't know shit about other sports don't compare MMA to other sports. In some of the tours he's won they literally had to go back all the way to 27th place to find someone who has never tested positive.

Yup.

Eddie Merckx GOAT

 

[NaughtyBoy]

There are tones of reasons on why he's the Ultimate GOAT...

 

[Towelie by TKO]

If PEDs made Werdum, Bigfoot and Hendo unbeatable, why were all 3 beaten handily both before and after they fought Fedor?

 

[svmVR2097]

Yup.

Eddie Merckx GOAT

Hinault never finished worse than 2nd in TdF and won 5 of them and went 5 for 5 in the Vuelta and Giro. Merckx is probably a bit ahead of him with his 11 total grand tour wins, but there's an argument that can be made

 

[Greco_Wiz]

This. Stop with the excuses. Fedor got smashed by better competition after making the jump into the cage. He was damn near his prime as well. He was simply inferior.

32-1 the lose to TK still counts
