Is undeniably the GOAT? Over Gsp , MM and Fedor?
Is undeniably the GOAT? Over Gsp , MM and Fedor?
First response nails it.No , not even close
I'd be disappointed if he fought Poirier and Barboza. They just aren't near his level. Ferguson, Khabib and Nate are different stories tho.If he can beat Khabib, Ferg, Poirer, Barboza, Nate (convincingly) then we'll talk.
Against literal nobodies. I'm sure Travis Fulton has many more.MM literally has like 14 title defenses....no
Khabib isn't a GOAT candidate. It's quite possible he will emerge as one, but as things stand right now he hasn't accomplished enough.I'd be disappointed if he fought Poirier and Barboza. They just aren't near his level. Ferguson, Khabib and Nate are different stories tho.
IMO, he'd have to beat Khabib, get a third belt at 165 vs GSP and then beat some other savage. Wins over Khabib and GSP are huge tho, as they are GOAT candidates as well, just as Jones win over D.C. is more valuable than ten of his other wins.
Now HE is the GOAT ... /threadJesus Christ.
MM literally has like 14 title defenses....no
It is more difficult to stay on top than to win a belt and never defendAgainst literal nobodies. I'm sure Travis Fulton has many more.
That's what I mean. If he wins a handful more (i.e. Conor, GSP and TF), he could be in the convo, especially with his record being perfect. GSP is in the current convo but Khabib is a possible candidate with a few more.Khabib isn't a GOAT candidate. It's quite possible he will emerge as one, but as things stand right now he hasn't accomplished enough.
That’s a possibility if he can not get taken down and has good cardio for the later rounds.Is undeniably the GOAT? Over Gsp , MM and Fedor?
