He was in his day, but the torch gets passed on

GOAT > torch

I’d still say Stipe, he’s 1-1 with Francis and just got caught with a lucky punch in the rematch. He dominated Ngannou the first time around, I’d put money on him taking the rubber match as well.
 
Only one UFC fighter on there on a UFC forum, delusional poll.
 
Jones

Francis lost 2 rounds to Gane. Jones lost zero.
Francis lost to Derrick Lewis
if he beats stipe he's 1-0 against him, meanwhile Francis is 1-1.
 
He obviously looked horrible against Gane due to knee injury but the Sprawlgannou we saw in the Stipe rematch would beat Jones
 
Lucky punch wtf? Sprawlgannou outwrestled him and outboxed him the entire fight

Ngannou was winning yeah but he was about to gas when Stipe ran in stupidly after rocking him and then ate that big punch without seeing it coming. Stipe woulda taken over the fight in the third if he hadn’t of gotten too overconfident and got clipped running in.
 
Fury. He is truly made of different stuff, Usyk negotiations aside. Like Emanuel Steward said: "There is a certain toughness inside Tyson Fury. Don't ever doubt it." Jones also has it, but I feel that it exist to an even greater extent in Fury.

I mean... kinda? Maybe? Woulda coulda shoulda. If only Stipe had done everything right he'd have won...
 
I got inspired by this post, which includes arguably the best heavyweights of all major combat sports right now:



So, who’s the baddest man on the planet at this moment?


Videos highlighting the rise to the top of all four champions:

“The Gypsy King” Tyson Fury:



Jon “Bones” Jones:



“The King of Kickboxing” Rico Verhoeven:



Francis “The Predator” Ngannou:



It's definitely not one of the white guys.

In all seriousness, I'd pick Mijain Lopez, Teddy Riner and Gable Stevenson to beat Tyson Fury too. Rico is a little tougher since he has some grappling experience under his belt.
