MW: ?

How are you measuring strength?

Punching power?

 

[SouthpawSouthernFist]

At 145 it was Conor by FAR. Even pure wrestlers like Mendes couldn't keep him down.

 

[Goldentrophy]

MW- Costa/Vetorri
WW-Usman/Khamzat

Updated the thread title. I mean lifting. Physically strongest

 

[Portland8242]

HW: Definitely Ngannou

LHW: Johnny Walker's had a few moments where he's effortlessly muscled guys around in the clinch, too bad he's got no chin

MW: Vettori was holding his own against a way overweight Costa, and I always thought Whittaker's been deceptively strong.

WW: Usman, maybe Sean Brady

LW: Islam or Chandler

FW: Volk

BW: Yan

FLW: Honestly no clue

 

[Hellowhosthat]

HW - Probably Romanov. Dude was throwing fucking Roque Martinez through the air.

LHW - I'll go with Cutelaba

MW - Got to be Cannonier

WW - Khamzat

LW - Madsen even though he can't keep it up for long.

FW - Volkanovski

BW - Probably Merab

FLW - Figgy

WFW - Nunes

WBW - Nunes

WFLW - Valentina

SW - Andrade

 

[StreetJudas]

All the guys on steroids

 

[Anewt]

Fly - kai kara
Bw no idea
Feather volk
Lw Islam?
Ww usman or Brady
Mw Vettori or Whittaker
Lhw . No idea
Hw - I guess Francis



Kai man handling a big boy

 

[Staph infection]

Black beast is very physically strong at HW. He just moves guys aside to get back up. You have to be very strong to just slide other heavyweights around like that.

WFW - Nunes

WBW - Nunes

WFLW - Valentina

SW - Andrade

Romanov is only 236lbs now. Not that jacked doubt he is physically stronger than Ngannou, Pavlovich, Lewis

 

[Rambo89]

Tank Abott

 

[Hellowhosthat]

Romanov is only 236lbs now. Not that jacked doubt he is physically stronger than Ngannou, Pavlovich, Lewis

 

[Snowblindlove]

Bro that is technique and when he weighed 260lbs which mass at some level helps. I am saying physicslly strong. In my opinion he should go to LHW, Cormier would cut 30lbs of water weight its the max a LHW can do etc

 

[Marianne]

HW Black Beast. Dude can simply stand up with 260lbs mounting him with zero technique
LHW Ankalaev
MW Costa
WW Usman
LW Chandler
FW Volk
BW Aljo
FLW Cejudo if he can still make it or Figuereido
WBW McMann
WFW Carmouche
WSW Weili or Andrade

 

[eatu4tea]

Jon Jones has the strongest deadlift on the UFC Roster so whether he is at Heavyweight or Light Heavyweight he tops both of those lists. The guy rag dolled Daniel Cormier for christs sake.

B-b-b-b-but he has such skinny calves...!!!

the only reliable measure is fighters' equivalency to US car brands

FLW - Figgy

WFW - Nunes

WBW - Nunes

WFLW - Valentina

SW - Andrade

I have pretty much the same list except for HW, Ngannou no doubt. And WFLW, it could be Fiorot, she is a true beast.
Many candidates for 2nd best at HW: Pavlovich, Aspinall, Romanov, Latifi.

Jon Jones has the strongest deadlift on the UFC Roster

Not like everyone in the UFC trains to deadlift the maximum weight. It is a lot about technique and neuromuscular adaptation, not just overall strength.

HW: Ngannou? I would of said Greg Hardy before he was fired as he was 294lbs in the cage

Ngannou is 293lbs now. The difference is that he trains his ass off so he is shredded at 260lbs for fight week, while Hardy does no cardio, comes fat and cut 30lbs of water.
