Garbandt's road to the title vs Conor's.

[ReasonableMMAFan]

Interestingly enough, both started off their UFC careers with a win over everyone's favorite jobber, Marcus Brimage! As well as having only five fights before getting their title shots.

Here's their records

McGregor
-Brimage
-Holloway
-Brandao
-Poirier
-Siver

Garbandt
-Brimage
-Enrique Briones
-Augosto Mendes
-Almeida
-Mizugaki

Which is more impressive?

McGregor & it's not even close. Anyone that says conor didn't deserve the title shot even before beating Mendes is either hating or trolling. I love Cody but he's not even the #2 contender right now.

I gotta say knowing what I know now that it's gotta be Conor. He fought 2 top 15 FW's in Brandao and Siver, Poirier was top 5, and look how good Holloway is now. Who's to say No Love's might look better in a few years though.

Garbrandt should be cut just for having horrible tattoos

Not even #2? Who would you put above him other than TJ?

Lineker. Just my opinion. I had him beating dodson, & I rate dodson pretty highly.

 

[Mlgyogg]

Connie for sure.

I might agree but I don't think he deserves it due to missing weight so much. The dude has missed weight more times than Rumble Johnson! Lol.

 

[FreddyFingers]

I'm sure Conor.

Lineker vs. Garbrandt for TS eliminator pls

Conor's was more impressive but lets not overvalue a win over Holloway in 2013. He was still very young and wasnt close to the fighter he is in 2016.

 

[mooseman17]

I'm sure Conor.

This video gave me both a seizure and an erection.

Damn I forgot abt that. Yeah, he def shouldn't get a title shot right after missing weight.

Jimmie Rivera. 8 years undefeated with 19 straight wins and just beat Urijah Faber decisively. Also, he KO'd Marcus Brimage in his debut too lol
