So we all agree that the goat...

[Guernica]

Talk is over then right?! Let's also dispel the myth that conner went up to 170. He did not. He fought a 155er who rolled out of the couch and instead of having to make a 10 day cut they agreed to fights at 170. They came in whithin a pound of each other on weigh ins.

Back to the "goat," argument. It was always ridiculous but amazingly so now because we saw Nate hand leprechaunnor a BEATDOWN! We all know conner has bad grappling but Jesus, Nate was able to really have his way with that dude. I hope this sobers a lot of people up.

Nate's a warm caring muthafkka

 

[wilKO]

Em no. He was called the goat since his UFC debut. If anything he is far closer to goat today than he was when the nickname stuck. Keep up ts.

Sherdog will NEVER agree on anything "GOAT" related

There is pretty much a consensus that the 4 greatest mixed marital artists of all time are GSP, Fedor, Anderson, and Bones.

It was a running joke then, and it's still a joke now. He was never close to goat status. In reality, he hasn't even defended his belt one time. I think his fans wanted him to be their goat so bad

Maybe, but then you get threads like this, which makes me lose my faith on humanity: http://forums.sherdog.com/threads/a...th-falsely-being-goat.3194735/#post-114373937

they will never stop

This is very true.
I will say that now that other fighters have seen him bleed and quit, conner he will get much less respect in the cage and suffer many more losses because the mystique is over and his skills (particularly Bjj/wrestling) are not at an elite caliber.

Disfigures Nate, Nate gets lucky, not GOAT anymore... LOL. Get real kid. Still holds the 145 title, will hold the 155 title, will disfigure Nate (AGAIN) and Nick Jr will be back on Fox. Luck only lasts for so long, ask Holly.

And then he's going to fight Robbie and take his WW belt. After that I can see him going to 185 and challenging the winner of Luke-Weidman becoming the first ever quad belt holder

One could make the argument that leprechaunnor got mad lucky in the Aldo fight. You can't cherry that shit bruh. Leprechaunnor quit! And got beat standing before he got raped on the ground. Handle that shit.

Conor would lose in seconds to Andy Wang.

I think Conor can get a belt at 185. He looked very strong and fast at 170. But him being new to having that much weight on fight night was a new experience. He thought the stamina would last him as long as it did carrying less weight on him. Thing is, his skill/talent make him competitive at any weight as long as he is smart, and he seemed to realize that quickly after the fight.

There is no GOAT. A GOAT is a urban myth created by nuthuggers to make themselves feel better about their manlove for a certain fighter.

Carry on with your day.
