He literally could have been asked fuckin anything lolSomebody said Jiri and Conor are from the same management company so that could be the reason. Or it's possible the question was actually who his favorite fighters were? That seems more likely considering he has Conor and Charles in there
If he had retired in 2013 like he originally wanted, almost everyone here would call him the goat.Anderson is #1 of all time no doubt. Maybe Jones or GSP second.
Better divisions, better opponents, better lossesVolk and Cruz are great fighters but they don't even have half as many great wins as guys like:
Fedor
Anderson
Nog
Hendo
Werdum
Jones
Cormier
Hughes
Yes, absolutely. Those guys definitely had tougher divisions and fought more dangerous opponents than Volk and Cruz ever did.Better divisions, better opponents, better losses
You know what I meant bro, max Holloway or Jose Aldo is a better win than 99 percent of anything any of those guys have. TJ Dillashaw is probably better than 95 percent of them, Demetrious Johnson is better than 99 percent. Heavyweight and light heavyweight are the weakest divisions, and I have a bone to pick with jones specifically tooYes, absolutely. Those guys definitely had tougher divisions and fought more dangerous opponents than Volk and Cruz ever did.
I won't compare losses since all the GOATs have losses. Any fighter that doesn't have a loss probably has retired young or has less than 30 fights. If Volk keeps fighting he will rack up more losses. If he stops now, he will never sit amongst the GOATs. He is still incredible though. Either the 2nd or 3rd greatest Featherweight of all time. His performance against LW Champ Islam was legendary as well. But Volk is not a top 10 P4P fighter of all time. Too many other legends with superior resumes
Jiri loves grease
This is mine hands down. Hard to beat that list. Each one of those guys dominated and lorded over their division for long periods of time. The competition might not have been quite as good as other periods/divisions but I think this is the most accurate list.Fedor
GSP
Silva
Jones
Aldo
My dude Max will be a first ballot HOF and Jose is already a HOF fighter. Anyone having a win over either guy when they were near their prime was a killer of a fighter themselves.You know what I meant bro, max Holloway or Jose Aldo is a better win than 99 percent of anything any of those guys have.

That’s what I’m saying, volk beat both of them, in a more skilled era in a better division. There’s no one to one comparison that can be made to either of those guys in the heavy divisionsMy dude Max will be a first ballot HOF and Jose is already a HOF fighter. Anyone having a win over either guy when they were near their prime was a killer of a fighter themselves.
I'm a big Fedor fan but he is not top 5. He went life and death with Maldonado and got KOed by a middleweight.
That would make a lot senseSomebody said Jiri and Conor are from the same management company so that could be the reason. Or it's possible the question was actually who his favorite fighters were? That seems more likely considering he has Conor and Charles in there
How do you put any of those names above Anderson Silva is the real question.That slavic pure hate for eastern european muslim caucasians showing up lmao how the flying fuck do you put charles or mcnugget above khabib and islam
BY allah they are persecuting us...This is just like when the Prophet was in MedinaThat slavic pure hate for eastern european muslim caucasians showing up lmao how the flying fuck do you put charles or mcnugget above khabib and islam
Based af for mentioning Fedor. Would be even better without Conor. No matter how much Zuffatards and UFC monopoly tries to peddle narratives actual fighters know what time it is with Fedor. Time and time again.
