Any other honorable mentions?
 
GOAT is career spanning, so incorporates wins and losses.

It would've been Anderson, tho he kept fighting to the point of so many losses and he couldn't get a W over anyone on the roster.

He's still in there, tho his spot is now mixed in with Wand, Aldo, and I think Shogun should be on that list.

There's a chance that I'm unintentionally omitting someone that deserves to be on the list.
 
Anderson. Wand, Shogun, etc. never had a consistent run like his.

Also pride Champs rarely defended their titles but fought 3 times as much as ufc fighters so to judge wand on title defenses alone is very misleading
 
Anderson Silva is likely the GOAT. Do you want to add a guy to the convo like Royce who started it all, and for his day was dominant and consistently won? We are only here because of Royce, and he was a finisher who took on all comers.
 
Almost completely against much smaller Japanese fighters while Wand was roided to the gills.
The fact Wand was on roids doesn't mean much, are Jon Jones' title defenses irrelevant, even if he was on steroids? Chael Sonnen's entire career, Vitor Belfort's? I agree with you in regards to the quality of his opponents, but keep in mind he also fought some really tough guys, such as Rampage Jackson, Ricardo Arona, Cro Cop, etc.
