Khabib's father about Jon Jones

[volcom5]

Fedor fans will say he was undersized (not even true) but then in the same breath say he was also faster and hit harder than everybody too.

They don't actually believe he was at any physical disadvantage. They just mention the size thing to try and grow his mythos for them to jerk off to.

I agree with you, but his wins over Schilt & Sylvia were very impressive given the disadvantage he did have, but then again Schilt was like fish out of water on the ground, and the Sylvia bout i have nothing but praise for Fedor, imo they’re great wins that showed how great he is, not the unskilled Hong Man Choi bout that some of his nuthuggers use as a “elite” to propel his status as GOAT.

Fedor is the only GOAT candidate that his fans constantly lie & create a ever changing narrative of his career to propel him, no one else gets this treatment, no GSP, Silva, Jones to a degree.

Jon Jones went undefeated longer than Pride even existed

I don't know why they don't just present the facts that he was a well rounded, fast, powerful guy and that obviously leads to great success.

The case is there for his greatness without all the constant lies.

We all know why, it stems back to the entire UFC vs PrideFC debate, they can’t accept that the likes of Fedor, Cro Cop & Shogun could ever lose to a UFC fighter.

Exactly, at this point some of them has lied more about his career than what actually made him great.

My favourite is when they say Fedor beat "______ UFC champions" instead of EX UFC champions.

They leave out the ex part because that would require acknowledging that there was a CURRENT champion he should be fighting instead.

It's particularly annoying when they're talking about Rampage who was a LHW champion and not HW, and Mir who hadn't been champion in like 13 years.
