UFC made GOAT poll. GSP isn't on it.

Lol you think Ali didn't have an army of haters in the day?

Do you know how much hate he got for changing his name from Clay?
The hate he got for not going to Vietnam?
The hate he got for all the trash talk he did?
The hate he got for calling Joe Frazier an uncle tom?

You call him a cultural icon now, he was not nearly viewed in the same respect back in the day. Keep hating.

Conor is easily the Ali of MMA, with his trash talk and popularity.

Ali got hate because of his principles.

McGregor gets hate because he is a bad person.

Gsp his legacy was very boring and hated while he was active now that he's ben retired people are crazy about him..

He was smart to retire on top.

But he's not above Silva or Jones or Aldo

Jones has alot of legal trouble and a whole ped thing but he was found innocent.

Same with Silva

Let's not forget gsp had grease gate and a lot of losses in his prime compared to Silva and Jones (undefeated since 23) gsp consecutive title defences isn't on par either.

But gsp did won the 185 belt didn't defend it.
(Cherry picked) Gsp is the best ever at ww
Anderson at mw

Jbj would have to be p4p

Khabib should not even be on the list it should be gsp instead.


Jon Silva gsp are the greatest UFC fighters with records that may not be beaten ever.

Khabib doesn't even have enough title defences or fights to compete for it.

Nor does Islam

Hated while he was active ?

Ha ! Where were you during his reign ?

His haters were, and still are, very loud, but the numbers don't lie : he sold PPVs. Like beyond Silva and Jon Jones levels. Less than Brock though.

People liked him and tuned in. With their wallets.

If you had any doubt that UFC fans in general are fucking morons... there you have it.

And if you had any doubt at all that TKO Holdings also thinks you're all fucking morons... they literally put CM Punk in the "other" category. If that isn't doesn't yell "fuck you, yes, we absolutely think you're stupid and we can be overt in our disdain" then I don't know what else they could possibly do to communicate that.

This man gets it, this is not a case of them being too stupid to know better… it’s a case of them openly calling you stupid while giving you the finger.

Normally, I’m not for the whole cancel culture and trying to get people fired thing, but whoever works there posting this garbage should definitely be let go, that’s beyond ridiculous.

Yeah they overplayed their hand by making CM Punk the Other option. Omitting GSP might just be staggering ignorance, but the pic of CM Punk makes it clear they are trolling.

Producing intentionally shitty content in the hopes of annoying people into engaging with it is a truly pathetic way to make a living.

Also Conor is going to be huge in politics in Ireland one day. He will be a social/cultural icon.

Posting shitty AI art to make a point isn't actually as good a look as you think it is.

Conor isn't even popular in Ireland. People are tired of him. Just like Sherdog is tired of you.

It'll be fun reading "Banned" under your name next week.
 
only promoting fighters that make sense, trying to draw out khabib and/or hype islam.

Ali was a prick in his prime. All the mean spirited shit Conor told Khabib in the buildup, Ali did 10× worse to Frazier and Terrell.

And he cheated on all his wives + married an underage girl. People don't like to talk about it but it's true.

His political "principles" is what got him love actually.
 
No DJ and Anderson either...the guys with the most consecutive UFC title defenses.

<{nope}>
 
1. Bones
2. GSP
3..Fedor
4. Anderson
6. Khabib
6. Mighty Mouse
7. DC
8. Aldo
9. Amanda Nunez
10. Conor/Ronda/Brock (for making MMA as big as it is)

Also goes without saying really but Bas Rutten sits above the GOAT rankings

As a side note , it's a bummer how Ali dropped those principles to the wayside later in life. I forget who it was but he got influenced by this figure that made him totally go back on all the things he stood for.

I look up to fighters for their athletic achievements with all the skill and dedication and sheer primal human will that it takes, but looking to them for a consistent world view or moral compass is hubris/breeds ignorance more often then not, even with Ali.
 
The interns who run these socials probably are kids who don't know the history of the sport. That's why you see Conor and Khabib on there.
