Islam is the GOAT

[Superzorro]

So far, he's exclusively faced people he was supposed to destroy. If he can't fight anyone that is projected to give him a good fight, or win or even a 50/50 match up, then he's going to have to put up some numbers. Double digit title wins is going to be mandatory for him to be considered GOAT. And even then, it would still be debatable. He has a lot of work to do.

Islam is better than Khabib and I have been saying this for a while now.

However, he is not GOAT. He could be though, let's see how things play out.

 

[Killhippies]

If he beats Shavkat and Ilia, yea

I love shavkat but I'm not sure if he can handles this level of grappling. It is a must see fight to me though.

 

[LoveMyMMA]

Better resume than Khabib but Khabib still mauls him.

I agree but we’re talking resume and legacy.

Islam is ahead

 

[MrBlackheart]

Lost to Volk

And the cope begins.

 

[Dirty Frank]

I still say khamzat wipes the floor with this guy. If he can still make 170

You just answered your question, Elmer Fudd

 

[Mammothman]

Amen brother

Who is he supposed to fight lmao?

 

[RedMountain]

Fedor
GSP
Islam
Khabib
Aldo
Jones*steroids
Anderson Silva*steroids

 

[Ladder Master]

Very strong arguments.

 

[Superzorro]

Who is he supposed to fight lmao?

We'll have to see. If there's no one that can match his skills, he's going to have to have one of those careers where quantity makes up for the quality. So far there's neither quality or quantity.

 

[jeff7b9]

6-0 in title fights

2 div undisputed champ

16 fight win streak ties Anderson

17-1 UFC

28-1 overall

Defeated 4 UFC champs 5 wins total
JDM, Charles, Poirier, Volk (2x)

Arguably the most complete skill set among the guys in the GOAT discussion.

 

[Subline]

I still have GSP, DJ, and Jones ahead. But Islam is my #4 and closing in on GOAT status with each fight.

 

[M.A.G.A.]

Islam would beat prime GSP

Maybe the GOAT

 

[fandangler101]

Absolutely insane how easily Islam dispatched JDM. I couldn't believe it. I was convinced JDM's TDD would hold up.

 

[UppercutFromHades]

Double champ and just tied Silva for longest win streak in the UFC

One of the most impressive resumes ever

LW GOAT

Snapped Volks 22 win streak

Snapped Charles 11 fight win streak

Snapped JDM’s 18 fight win streak


This guy is taking out fighters at their peaks

Unreal

We’re witnessing greatness

I said yesterday if he wins, he climbs to #2 after Jon Jones. But tbh, he is #1 as Jones has the PED thing as an *.
Islam is the best MMA athlete of alltimer AND p4p #1.

 

[KavkazDominance]

We'll have to see. If there's no one that can match his skills, he's going to have to have one of those careers where quantity makes up for the quality. So far there's neither quality or quantity.

Maybe Usman or Morales tbh

[MarleyLynx]
