Ortega is clearly the best fighter in the UFC below the welter weight division.

Ortega would beat Khabib easily on the feet with much crisper striking and he is still learning defence, but that wouldnt be an issue with Khabibs rudimental striking, and Ortega would easily sub Khabib off his back if he was to get taken down. The rest of light weight doesnt really pose much of a threat to him. Tony poses a tiny threat with sheer size and grit and toughness, but doubt he ever is healthy enough to get into the cage with Ortega. Conor doesnt stand a chance at all, he would get absolutely mauled by Ortega. Alvarez and Poirer.... LOL no chance. The rest I wont even mention because no point, Ortega is just too good for them.

In featherweight, well Ortega has been doing a Soldier of God and been cleaning out all the top 5 before even getting to the belt. Ortega already absolutely fucking destroyed Frankie and Cub, Moicano before that and Guida too. The rest of the division who he hasnt faced doesnt really stand a chance. Ortega would demolish Aldo, Stephens, Lamas, Emmett, Bektic... I mean, there is no one at featherweight who Ortega wont beat including the champ Max Holloway.

Dont get me started about the below classes, that will be good old UFC 8 David vs Goliath and would be criminal to broadcast.
 
ortega was losing to moicano standing up,lol

rofl, re watch the fight buddeh, it was a round a round going into the third, and why did moicano shoot for the takedown before getting his neck snatched up? because ortega was beating him in the stand up.
 
Aldo, Holloway, Khabib and Ferguson would all destroy him.
 
Just because your good on the ground doesn't mean you can sub Khabib when he's on top of you.

no way aldo beats ortega.

aldo isnt that level yet. and wont adapt or reach it.

im really intrigued into why you think holloway beats him? ortega is much better rounded as a fighter with striking improving leaps and bounds between fights and his ground game is second to none.

obviously its all speculation at light weight but i think my boy Ortega has the gifts and the skills to beat any light weight in the world right now. Sub-sequentially any other fighter sub 170.
 
Ortega is well overrated. Great fighter, exciting fights but I just don't see him as being THAT good.
overrated? for uppercutting frankie into another realm? and choking cub so tight he legit thought he was going to die?
 
Just because your good on the ground doesn't mean you can sub Khabib when he's on top of you.
yeah but khabibs stand up isnt even as good as ortegas, ortega would keep landing shots at a distance keeping khabib on the outside whilst peppering him with strikes non stop. if khabib wanted to strike with ortega all fight it would be a 50-45 ortega win, just by beating up khabib on the feet.

if khabib tried to go for a takedown, ortega would either snatch that neck up and choke him out, or get taken to the ground where he would sub him off the back once it went to the ground.
 
Ortega was losing to everybody







until he won
i wouldnt say everybody.

the first fight he finished very quickly and couldnt lose.

vs tavares, i think it was even on damage and could be a round each going into the third when ortega pummelled him.

vs brandao he was losing the fight, but pulled off an amazing chain submission to sub brandao.

vs guida, a round each going into the third.

vs moicano, a round each going into the third.

vs cub nearly finished cub at the end of the first round, and finished him in the second. wasnt really getting beaten handily.

vs frankie, sent frankie levitating in the first round.
 
Overrated by people saying he's the best fighter under 170. I see so many guys beating him, and I'd take Frankie in a rematch.
frankie would get finished quicker in the rematch. lol.

and honestly, i just see no one below 170 beating him.
 
Hes overrated and an overachiever. Plus hes a steroid cheat. Dont care what he does hes got an asterisk already.
 
No one is unbeatable.
this is truth. and real talk.

but unbeatable to a level. if ortega was to fight romero at middleweight, id def expect him to lose, but otherwise... its a toss up.
