Media Joe Rogan: ''Khabib is the MMA GOAT '' Vol.46

[Tevfik1907]

''He smashed everybody. Undefeated as a World Champion, the last guy he beat was, would many people thought would be his most dangerous challenge, and he almost had him in the first round, he got him in the second round. He is the greatest of all time.''

 

[thinkandbeslim]

Joe still doesn't think he'd beat Ronda though....

 

[Iron Nick]

I think the guy who failed multiple drug tests and whose best win is a decision over a 35 year old who if he had a somewhat low body fat would fight at least one division below is better.

Khabib tapped out of the GOAT competition

Agree but Rogan will probably call GSP or Pico GOATS if either of those guys are in his show

 

[TheSpider]

Anderson/Jones/DJ - 11 title defenses

Aldo/GSP - 9 title defenses

Khabib - 3 title defenses

 

[Reach4theSky]

Wish Khabib hung around long enough to fight Charles. The ground game between the two would have been interesting to say the least..

 

[Simian Raticus]

I like that Khabib bowed out at his peak.

But it also means that he didn't rack up the numbers to be a GOAT contender, imo.

Also, in 2 or 3 years Rogan will probably be calling someone else the GOAT. He's the kind of person who is caught up is whatever the big thing is right now.

 

[SmoothPies]

He's the most dominant fighter of all time. He's far from the most accomplished fighter of all time.

 

[Young Calf Kick]

Anderson/Jones/DJ - 11 title defenses

Aldo/GSP - 9 title defenses

Khabib - 3 title defenses

Anderson/Jones - 5 PED offences
Aldo/GSP - knocked out by lesser fighters
Khabib - undefeated, most dominant champion in UFC history, destroyed literally everyone in front of him, LW GOAT by a large margin, hasn't made a single mistake in his entire career

Khabib himself said that Jon Jones is the GOAT.

Sure, but 90% of his wins are against sub par competition. I guess the point is if he had to fight the number one contender 10 times in a row like GSP, Anderson and Jones did, he would eventually make those mistakes and look less dominant.

lol, no, Jon Jones is the most dominant champion in UFC history.

 

[Natural Order]

Joe Rogan with daily hyperbole?

Rogain knows GSP was juiced to the gills to show up jacked like that to his fights. He won't put GSP over Khabib eva!

 

[kuroro]

There is no competition to Khabib in the GOAT category.

GSP has 1 fight under USADA.
Jones is a proven roidbag and has 4 clean fights total. Half of those are shitty split decisions which proves that his natural fighting ability is very mediocre.
Anderson is a proven roidbag and has 1 clean win in the UFC. His career fell off a cliff once he could no longer roid starting from 2015 and his performance completely plummeted.

Khabib has 7 fights under USADA and all of his top or simply dangerous opponents except for RDA were beaten by him in the USADA era: Michael Johnson, Barboza, Poirier Gaethje. Never had any problems with roids. The true and undisputed GOAT. Roidbag nut-garglers can go stick more needles in their asses along with their opinions.

Actual fight fans don't care about roids

What's wrong with wanting to look good?

True scotsman fallacy, breh.

Cool, bring Brock Lesnar to UFC again.

Khabib himself said that Jon Jones is the GOAT.

When did he say that?

He's the most dominant fighter of all time. He's far from the most accomplished fighter of all time.

''Accomlishments'' are subjective.

You probably meant title defenses = accomplishments.

Then again, nobody robbed Jon Jones from his deserved title shot, and made him wait for 2 years. That happened to Khabib in 2016.

Khabib is a special case in terms of title defenses, due to UFC's Conor favoritism, that should be considered when it comes to Khabib, and put an asterisk to his title defenses on why he could've more but UFC didn't give him the chance and made him wait for 2 years. Just like asterisks that Jon Jones has due to USADA.

that's not how you use that. some people are, in fact, not scotsman.
