Is Rumble Johnson the 3rd greatest LHW ever

[MoreKane]

After Jones and Cormier? Is that fair to place him as number 3?

 

[Snake Master]

No, he has like 3 good wins. Overrated

 

[xP]

don't think so. just doesn't really have the quantity or even that much quality wins. third best? we could talk about it. but just not the resume for greatest.

After Jones and Cormier? Is that fair to place him as number 3?

Fuck no. It's not about who you might have beat if they all met in their primes. It's about putting a prolific career together and winning a belt at least once.

 

[BFoe]

Shogun?

 

[ExitLUPin]

Nowhere close to top 10

Daniel isnt close to 2nd either

 

[Melas Chasma]

Doesn't have the resume, but based on ability alone he is top2-3. DC was just a bad match up for him.

He is the best MMA striker ever, never got outstruck, dropped or rocked on the feet.

 

[Travis Alexander]

Potential wise? Yes. Unfortunately the reality is he didn’t continue fighting at a time when he was looking like a world beater. His consistency and inability to hone down on a singular weight class to truly make his stake in will prevent him from going down as a top3 at LHW. Guy had insane talent though.

 

[cade187]

Never won a title. /thread

 

[stereolab]

Nope. Probably the most power of any LHW. He shot DC's ass across the cage.

 

[Bob Sapp]

Doesn't have the resume, but based on ability alone he is top2-3. DC was just a bad match up for him.

“Best MMA striker ever”?

 

[Anoose]

He is the scariest dude at LHW that's for sure...

Spoiler: Not for the faint of heart

 

[GangGangGang]

For what? Being the 3rd best LHW for a few short years?

 

[snackgod]

After Jones and Cormier? Is that fair to place him as number 3?

no. some guy names chuck randy and rashid have something to say about that.

 

[SmoothPies]

Absolutely not...

Shogun, Chuck, Rampage, Machida, Rashad, Tito, and Randy are all above him at least. Belts matter

Christ.

Was outstruck by Kos

 

[The-AxeMurderer]

Hell nah.

Shogun, Wanderlei, Chuck, Jackson....

Probably more I'm forgetting.....

 

[DC23]

Most scary fighter I’ve seen in his prime.

Shame his prime lasted about 35 minutes.

 

[CinemaKingdom]

No.

Yes, sorry I don't care about hispter's definitions of "good striking". Effectiveness is what matters.
