Will Rogan continue to call Holloway the FW GOAT at UFC 251?

Legacy wise Aldo has it by far. Seems like the term is used just to Hype without nearly enough vindication.
 
Rogan lives in his own old and baked world Nothing new
 
He'll probably call Volkanovski the FW GOAT after he waxes Max again

Probably this. Rogan is known to use hyperbole to the max when it comes to the next best thing in any division.
 
Aldo fought midget wrestlers with no KO threat.

The first 2 lanky elite strikers he fought he got finished 3 times.

Max beats all of Aldo’s best wins
 
"one of the", thats for sure, if he wins he will do it for sure, the goat.
 
There's only 1 fearherweight GOAT and its not close, Jose Aldo went on an 18 fight unbeaten streak at Featherweight which included 9 title defenses (2 In WEC and 7 in the UFC).
It’s actually a 25 fight unbeaten streak at FW. 18 fight win streak overall. Unbelievable numbers.

2nd longest win streak among GOATs candidates behind only Fedor.

18 fight win streak for Aldo, 17 fight win streak for Anderson, 13 fight win streak for GSP, 13 fight win streak for Mighty Mouse, 27 fight win streak for Fedor and arguably 28 for Jon Jones and 28 for Khabib. All part of their championship runs too.
 
I love some Max Holloway and I feel like his title defenses isn't a proper reflection of his accomplishments in the division because he had such a long run to get to the title.

That said, Jose Aldo is still pretty clearly the FW goat and imo he's up there with MMA goat. IMO prime Jose Aldo is the p4p greatest.
 
Lol Conor destroyed both and they have audacity to call them the goat of the division

Max beats all of Aldo’s best wins
So Chad Mendes had no KO power?

Aldo beat Moicano and Korean Zombie. Two lanky strikers there.

Prime Aldo likely beats all of Max's wins too. They are probably the top 2 FWs ever so it's not very surprising. Everyone knows Aldo is the GOAT though. Look at his reign as world champ
