LW GOAT top 5

[johncola]

Back in the day, the likes of BJ Penn and Gomi were ranked highly, but I don't think they compare to the fighters of today. Here's my top 5:

1. Conor McGregor
2. Khabib Nurmagomedov
3. Tony Ferguson
4. Dustin Poirier
5. Justin Gaethje

Rafael dos Anjos narrowly misses out.

What's your opinion on the top 5?

Your troll is too obvious. If your thread made more than 3 pages I'll take my hat off.

Conor 1-1 at LW in the UFC.

Definite LW GOAT resume.

I think his list is more based on who can beat who, not on just accomplishments alone.

2007/2008 BJ Penn beats everyone, except Ferguson.

Nah. Baby Jay gets starched by Conor. The best version of Baby Jay.

3. Motivated Bj
4. Nate Diaz (according to him never lost)
5. Barboza, that one time he koed some poor dude with a spinning heel kick

Apologies for pain caused. Reality can hurt.

Don't feed the troll

I'm not a troll; this is what I think.

I'm hungry though. Is someone offering food?

 

[johncola]

Nurmagomedov
Edgar
Penn
Furguson
Henderson

I honestly think you could only argue Edgar, Penn, and Benson if you were to consider hypothetical "what if they came up later in the game" versions of the fighters. These three, as we saw them, at their best, get smoked by Conor and Dustin and Justin.
