Fighters with highly underrated resumes

Khabib's resume is still underrated here by many haters

- Gaethje (destroyed Tony and ended his 8 year unbeaten streak of 12 fights)

- Poirier (beat prime Holloway and ended his 13 fight win streak, plus wins over Pettis, Eddie and Gaethje)

- conrat (double champ, beat aldo in 13 sec and beat #3 All Time Great LW Eddie)

- Iaquinta ( was on a 5 fight win streak, beat Lee twice)

- Barboza ( 4 fight win streak with wins over Gilbert, Pettis and Dariush)

- RDA (RDA was in his prime, 5 fight win streak with a win over a prime Cowboy, plus became Champion in less than a year after he lost to Khabib )

- MJ (has wins over Tony, Poirier, Barboza, Lauzon, Tibau and many others)

- Pat Healy ( was scheduled to fight giblert for the strike force title but Giblert kept pulling out and strike force was then bought by the UFC. Was on 5 fight win streak and had beaten Jim Miller the fight before Khabib)

- Tibau ( was a solid top 15-20 LW for many years. Has most amount of takedowns in LW division and the highest TDD % at LW. Plus has wins over many great LW's like RDA)

If Pat Healey, Tibau and MJ are listed as some of your best wins........
<Neil01>

Go look at their resumes :D

All 3 of those dudes are perfect for this thread. Especially MJ with his wins over Tony, Dustin and Edson.

Gian Villante
Alonzo Meinfeild

Some of these lists are fighters who've beaten green and/or washed up fighters.........looks good on paper but there's a reason some of their resumes aren't regarded and it's not due to being underrated
 
Chael Sonnen
-Jason Miller
-Renato Sobral
-Oleksiy Oliynyk
-Paulo Filho
-Yushin Okami
-Nate Marquardt
-Michael Bisping
-Shogun Rua
-Wanderlei Silva

-Yushin Okami
-Carlos Condit
-Paul Daley
-Robbie Lawler
-Jason Miller
-Dan Henderson
-Martin Kampmann
-Yoshiro Akiyama

Some context tho...

Jake Shields
-Yushin Okami > controversial dec.

Chael Sonnen
-Renato Sobral> a priori a work
-Oleksiy Oliynyk > was a MW then
-Paulo Filho> completely Rohypnoled.

Marlon

With no * it's not that impressive tho
-Marlon
-Reis
-Sergio Pettis
 
Yeah the guy that was 9-0 and 5-0 in UFC. He would then go on to win another 4 straight after losing to Beneil. That James Vick. Did you forget that Vick was once 9-1 in UFC?

I don't care if he was 15-0, he was barely top 15 in the UFC, let alone in world rankings. He should not be included in a "greatest resume" list
 
Jeremy Horn

Chael Sonnen 3x
Forrest Griffin
Gilbert Yvel
Chuck Liddel
Dean Lister
David Loiseau
Josh Burkman
Court McGee

Every single one of those wins was a guy out of their prime except maybe Lister, but great names none the less.
 
Werdum
Submitted Fedor, Big Nog, Cain and Overeem
Also beat Prime Big Foot and KO'd Mark Hunt

Sometimes losses are more quality ones than wins, tho...

> Close dec. loss to Handy
> Close & somehow controversial dec. loss to Nog
> Close MD & SD losses to Arona

Beat Haseman too..

Yeah, he's got an insane resume because he just always fought and pretty much always brought his A game.
