Will There ever be a better Line Up of champions than this one ?

[Senzo Tanaka]

Yes. Pre-manlet days.

 

[Deleted member 448575]

Ok

The new generation will surpass the previous one. Give it some time and better fighters will come along.

GOAT Line Up for sure

 

[Sonny Qc]

Yes. Pre-manlet days.

Replace Lyoto by Rampage and I'm In

 

[Wariowokecancel]

TJ
Max
Khabib
Woodley
Whittaker
DC
DC

Arguably better right now

Youre taking the piss apart from DC at HW and that’s it.

 

[Sonny Qc]

better question: has there ever been a higher resolution of this photo?

Man, Kanye 1st ablum was the shiet....

Everything went South after it....

 

[bambammccoy]

TJ
Max
Khabib
Woodley
Whittaker
DC
DC

Arguably better right now

In terms of champions, no.

Each one of them is either GOAT of their weightclass or just shy of it, all champion at one time.

 

[Sonny Qc]

Randy
Tito
Menne
Newton
Pulver

Hespectfully have to disagree with you

 

[FoghornLeghorn]

Yes. Pre-manlet days.

Oh shi....the poster! Whatever happened to the poster's curse, did we find out how it ended?!

 

[ErenJaeger_]

nearly a full lineup of goats all champs at the same time

 

[Zorrox]

Wow that is a crazy lineup! I think I would pick all those guys in their primes vs the current champs. Expect maybe Frankie over Khabib, and Cruz vs TJ is a tossup.


Would love to see prime Cain vs DC... shit, I would love to see all the fights!

 

[Bartinho]

the current line-up beats all those guys

Wait, Cormier beats Cain and JBJ? Lol, you're a goof bro.

 

[DanAndroid]

Remove Edgar and Can Velazquez and now we are talking. Two fighters who are worshiped by their super fans but in reality are not cream of the crop.

 

[Zorrox]

Prime GSP, Anderson, Jones and Cain easily beat their successors imo.

Aldo five+ years back was also quite a bit better than he is today. Much less mileage. Would be a different fight vs Holloway imo

So I don't think todays champs can compete. They are really good though.

But that line up is just legendary. We won't see anything come close in a while imo.

I agree. WEC Aldo would wreck Holloway IMO. His reaction time and speed was another level. Holloways only chance would be to out pace him in the later rounds.

This.

You have 3 of 4 GOAT candidates, and division GOATs in the same photo.

I hate to even say this because without injury I believe he would have been the best HW champ we've ever had but Cain is the weak link in the line up as of now.

Good old times when I didn't know what steroid is

 

[caliboi74lv]

Probably not. Edgar is actually the weakest link, incredible.

I kind see that, but Frankie's been tough and undersized.

 

[West Linn]

Why does Aldo look like Kenny Florian in that picture?

 

[caliboi74lv]

Oh shi....the poster! Whatever happened to the poster's curse, did we find out how it ended?!

I remember that somewhat, what was the story on that.
