We can all agree that there's no agreed upon criteria for what P4P or GOAT is. Cool. That's out of the way. So in your opinion, who's the highest ranked P4P GOAT that's not #1 in their own division? Some examples: Hendo (EDIT) Cormier Hughes Pele Sakuraba Some Gracie or another Randy Couture (I'm reluctant to name a current fighter....)
DC is a good one. Thanks. I'll add him. I still pick Hendo though. His Pride WW GP (183lbs) & MW (205lbs) belts at Pride, plus wins over Big Nog & Fedor at HW, and a (almost) 20 year career.
DC is the correct answer - but a few other notable mentions: Tony Ferguson Max Holloway - if you consider the FW goat to be Aldo
I believe this is the highest: The mountain goat, also known as the Rocky Mountain goat, is a hoofed mammal endemic to North America. A subalpine to alpine species, it is a sure-footed climber commonly seen on cliffs and ice.
Edgar, although he's obviously slipping now. He has top 5 wins at LW and FW, If he gets a top win at BW, he'll have top wins across three divisions topped off with his belts at home.
Big Nog is like the perfect answer for this. Henderson is another. Big Nog Henderson Barnett Arlovski Machida Shogun Liddell Hughes Belfort Franklin
Marty Usman is starting to creep up there he just beat the only guy that can wrestle with him unless Khabib or Islam move up
DC would have dominated LHW for years if Jones never existed, and would have probably been a GOAT tier HW if he'd stayed there in his prime.
