Who do you consider more talented, Gane or Wonderboy?

[SSgt Dickweed]

They seem to have a very similar style in MMA. Both switch hitters and rely heavily on point-fighting background (?). The hands down, little-to-no head movement style they have has both advantages and flaws.

Wonderboy seems to get hit more often because competition in WW is more stacked than HW. Both had shots at the title but failed.

 

[Here's Johnny!]

They aren't comparable

 

[Goatenstein]

Gane doesn't beg to not fight well-rounded mixed martial artists.

 

[Dreyga Hates You Sherbums]

Definitely Wonderboy… not even close

He’s the greatest karate fighter in history of the UFC by a large margin

Y’all must have forgot about Wonderboy in his prime

 

[KillerIsBack V2]

Gane doesn't beg to not fight well-rounded mixed martial artists.

Gane isnt 40 and just looking for fan friendly fights on his way out to retirement.

Hendricks was a very decorated wrestling champion, and wonderboy chose to fight him without any belt on the line.

 

[Dirty Frank]

Both great fighters. 2 of my favorites to watch. Wonderboy is more proven and he's been in the game way longer than Gane. When you consider that, Gane might be more naturally talented.
But like I said, both great fighters. No use comparing the 2

 

[HatKick]

Two of my favorites. In terms of just being a prime athletic specimen Gane is more talented and one the most talented fighters ever. To move the way he does as a 240 lbs man is unheard of.

Wonderboy of course is an underrated athlete in his own right. Never gets tired, still moves like a snake at 40 and has the best hip flexibility in MMA. Skill wise he has a much deeper striking arsenal than Gane who is pretty basic in comparison. Gane might be champ some day but you can't compare the competition they've faced.

 

[Banana Tree's Nemesis]

Gane. Because Wonderboy is skilled and not talented. Gane's greatest weapon on the other hand is his athleticism which by chance is strongly supported by his genetics.

 

[Takes Two To Tango]

Gane is more talented and has much more room for improvement.

By a long margin ? Lyoto actually won a belt.

 

[Canadian Kicker]

Wonderboy has the most talent

However

Gane has the most potential

 

[notsojollyrogerRIP]

Good question! Welterweight is a more competitive weight class due to the obvious fact that the majority of the male population is closer to Wonderboy's size than to Gane. Therefore got to give it to Thompson.

Gane doesn't beg to not fight well-rounded mixed martial artists.

He literally said in an interview the other day that he doesn't want to fight Blaydes because of his wrestling.

 

[USA!USA!]

Wonderboy since he does it against non-fat guys

 

[goOb]

Stevie Wonderbread for sure. Although its awesome to see that type of stuff from a guy the size of Gane.

This exactly. Gane is 32 and started MMA in 2018.. Wonderboy is nearly 40 and has been in MMA since 2010 not to mention his 58 kickboxing fights before MMA. 2012 UFC debut for Wonderboy vs 2019 for Gane. Wonderboy already had 13 UFC fights and fought for the title twice before Gane made his UFC debut. No shame in wanting to have some fun fights when your career is almost over... Well while I say its almost over, Wonderboy looked amazing against Holland. Fastest 39 year old I've ever seen.

GSP is the greatest karate fighter in UFC history. Just ask bisping.

Lol at least he's honest.

 

[Brca031]

Cereal Gane..never saw a man that big throw leg kicks and run away and call it "fighting".

 

[StonedLemur]

Lol at least he's honest.

Its a shame they don't want to fight the toughest guys anymore, but you're right sir.
