Who’s the greatest LW of all time?

[AndersonSilva23]

Khabib>=Penn

Really close between the two. Khabib will definitely surpass “The Prodigy” as the greatest LW of all time if he beats Tony. HM Bendo.

Horrible list..Connor has a losing record against 155ers in the ufc. No Pettis who beat benson twice in his prime. No BJ or Gomi? What a joke.

You had to lie to make my list look bad, which proves you’re full of shit. Conor has a losing record against 155ers? He has wins against Eddie, Nate, Cowboy, Poirier and only lost to Khabib and Nate.

And talking about records, BJ Penn? His impressive
16-14-2 record has GOAT written all over it. Gomi? With his 4-9 UFC record?
Penn and Gomi actually hold the records for the longest UFC losing streaks, BJ 7 loses and Gomi 5.

The only thing that is a joke here is you, sir.

9 LW fights wins in a row, breaking the record for most LW title defenses in a row.

Some loses mixed in there at WW and other weights etc.

But we are talking about LW fighters.

Who ever you suggest is better , do they have WW, MW and Open weight (lhw vs machida) mixed in their resume??

Why would fights in other weights effect his lightweight fights ? ...

Eddie is the worst male champ this past decade


JG is Unproven


And Max Is a FW who moved up for a fight.

Bisping is the worst

Bisping is the worst

He beat Silva in a really underrated fight I give him Props for that

It's still BJ Penn. He's going through a rough time right now, and that's an understatement, so people are gona downplay his whole career.

But if khabib beats tony, he's got a legit argument for the greatest LW of all time. He might even be in overall GOAT conversation after that.

 

[Doctor Grudge]

Personally, I think he lost legitimately--if narrowly--to Pulver, who was a beast at the time. The rematch didn't show the first decision was flawed but that Penn had upped his game.

You might be right.

 

[Doctor Grudge]

you have Eddie on your list but not the guy who dethroned him? I’m not a nut sucker but he objective.

Hard to be an all time great LW when you've had two fights at LW lol. Not sure why this is so hard to grasp

 

[zebby23]

Penn
Frankie
Gomi
Khabib

Can make an argument for all of these

I love getting called on for the easy ones Answer: Who is Khabib the Eagle...... for the question Who is the greatest mma LW of all time.

Agreed...but that was before he was champ
