Where do you rank Poatan among the greatest MMA Fighters of all-time?

[Takes Two To Tango]

Alex Pereira is in the cusp of GOAT status. 3-4 more wins against the elite dogs will solidify that.

Where do you rank him so far?

 

[Poatans_ref_friend]

Hard to say top 15 for sure
Maybe top 10 or better with more showings at LHW
Def top 5 or likely goat if he gets a HW title.

Hard to say. He's had a but of circunstance and luck

Hard to tell because he is on a roll now. Wait until the first loss and he will be out of the goat convo immediately. Two losses and he was never good.

 

[Takes Two To Tango]

Meh, we're talking about where you'd rank him at this point. Of course he keeps on destroying people, his ranking will get higher. But for now where do you have him?

Tap has him at #21. right below Conor and above Cain. sounds like the right spot although I would have Cain ahead of him

I just think it's a bit too soon for this

 

[Striker Fox]

Top 5-10 GOAT no question. Far superior to Adesanya

 

[axe wound]

He's aight

 

[pamirec]

Too soon. Wait till he loses.

Man is in his prime and the underdog vs a guy like Ankalaev

Kinda speaks volumes imo

 

[RockyLockridge]

not quite top 15 yet. 1 more win and he's in

Doesn't say a thing.

 

[Striker Fox]

Doesn't say a thing.

He's a huge question against anybody with a shred of wrestling.

Even prime Phil Davis would be a pretty big betting favorite over him. Very good wrestling, possibly the GOAT chin. Nightmare matchup for Pereira.

Yeah styles makes fight but poatan hasn't lost to that wrestler yet and I think the more time passes training with glover the more likely that Pereira's grappling defense is better than we give credit for

 

[Number 8]

LEL this is why I love Sherdog

If he loses the next fight he was never that good and is a can crusher

 

[icerealm]

top 15
looks very unbeatable stand up lhw, however grappling is a question, split decision with jan, taken out by israel once, not as dominant for top 10 but strong enough for top 15
