Ngannou vs Gane would be the pinnacle of MMA

Actually it isn’t too early to say, HW MMA is such a wasteland that Stipe’s rudimentary boxing skills established himself with the best resume a UFC HW has had

Even if it was a concensus that Stipe has the best resume for a UFC HW, which I am sure people would argue, that in no way proves that Gane is the most technical HW striker in MMA history.

Watch the fight and figure it out.

Why did Ngannou shoot 3 times against Stipe?

Because he got worn out. Something Crumble has done over and over.

I watched the fight. Seems like you haven't if you can't explain what happened.

Rumble was beaten badly by DC's ground and pound, so it's false to say DC wore Rumble out on the feet.

I'm right you're wrong. It happens.<GinJuice>

Ngannou is just a HW version of Rumble, but with worse cardio, and less quit. Also believe Rumble has the better wrestling as well.

Ngannou would molly whoop his ass into oblivion.

What has Carwin done? He only has 2 good wins in his whole career

Oh really? you do know that carwin is a div 2 wrestling champ while ngannou looks like a fish out of water on the ground? im just saying carwin has just as much ko power if not more.

If you know anything about bodybuilding its easy to see because it has a certain look, people who arent into training and gym cant see these things.

Ngannou has heavy hands, but so have a lot of HWs over the years. Gane is technical, but it is way too early to say he is the most technical HW ever. It would be a high level match-up, but calling it the pinnacle of MMA is a pretty huge stretch.

Gane is the most technically proficient striker in the history of the HW division.

Gane defeated the #1 ranked HW Muy Thai fighter in the world, thats why GLORY offered him a contract after thirteen kickboxing fights.

Comparing Gane to Stipe is like comparing the striking of Israel Adesanya to Kevin Holland.

What HW do you believe is a better technical striker? Gane is the only HW I have ever seen that throws crescent kicks.

Prime Gane vs Prime Velasquez would have told us who the most technical heavyweight in UFC history really was.

My money would be on Prime Velasquez.

This fight is still cool as it definitely has Velasquez-Carwin vibes.

Cain’s stand up was nothing without the TD threat

A fun and exciting fight? Definitely. Pinnacle? Eh that's a bit Rogan-ish overstatement. A huge powerful HW throwing windmill punches hardly qualifies as pinnacle. I would say GSP-Penn could be considered a MMA pinnacle fight

this is really poor striking from Ngannou and will foreshadow his eventual brutal KO. He almost payed for it in the Stipe fight until Stipe decided to get reckless

yes, its easy for me, an armchair warrior to say that on sherdog, but someone like Gane would make Ngannou pay for this... hell, Derrick Lewis would make him pay for this

The pinnacle of MMA must be a HW or at least a LHW bout. As it’s a young sport, that continues to develop, the most recent HW title fight has the best chance to have the 2 baddest mf’ers that have ever lived.

If you disagree, name-

-2 more athletic fighters than Ngannou and Gane

- more powerful striker than Ngannou

- more technical HW striker than Gane

I’ll wait

from a striking perspective? okay

but overall, I think Cain vs. Werdum or Stipe vs. DC was as high as it gets (for now)

Ngannou is on a tear, but he has major holes in his game, and Gane is still relatively new

The windmill with no ground game vs the guy whose best win is Volkov?

You're an absolute gem.

The pinnacle of MMA was 2005. There's a long history before 2019. I'm glad you're enjoying MMA though.
