Will you consider Islam the LW goat if he wins (4th title defense)

[markg171]

Dustin was never #6. When he fought JG he was #2 behind Charles and then bumped down to #3 and when Arman beat Charles, Dustin bumped down to #4. He was never lower than #4 at any point.

It’s obviously bullshit when you can name many fighters who should’ve been ahead

 

[2009lurker]

Needs to beat one or two more legit challengers. If he beats Arman, he’ll be close.

 

[2009lurker]

Nah, needs to beat two more legit contenders

Who?

 

[MindGamingMantis]

He's the best LW now, but he needs like 2 more wins. Moicano and Arman and you have the literal modern day GSP.

 

[El Fernas]

Not yet, but the numbers will be there, Moicano might not be the best challenge, but, its a new one, Khabib beat the top guys, but those guys are falling down this days, and he already beat who was probably the best one in Dustin Poirier, he entered the discussion, have him defend a couple more, undebiable LW GOAT for the time being.

 

[markg171]

Who?

Islam shuldve defended against:

Charles
Gamrot
Arman/Max/Dustin
Arman/Max
Arman

He constantly avoids it. Not his fault if opponents are injured but still, hes obviously waiting to late bight when he has the advante. If notning ele he prepa for 5 rounds as a champ and his oppoonent doesn.t

 

[Thad Castle v2]

Hell no

 

[IDGETKTFO]

Negative. Moicano is a padded record fight. Islam gets no respect from me. I am glad its the main even so i can turn the tv off after Merab and gets some sleep.

 

[NoSmilez]

I think islam should be part of the discussion. He should surpass Khabib with a win over Arman. We aren’t getting it so tonight’s fight is like Khabib vs Al. A win doesn’t really mean much for Islam.

I will give it to Islam if he decides to move up or kill himself moving down. All this GOAT stuff isn’t who can beat who in practice. Islam is out there doing his thing while Khabib retired early.

 

[HuskySamoan]

He will a few more to surpass Khabib, if only because he hasn't looked as dominant as Khabib. I think if he gets this one, and one after, that should seal the deal.

Pretty terrible resumes overall by Khabib and Islam. The Moicano fight is like the I'Aquinta one, damn near worthless.

 

[muican0]

No way. It should be a clean and relativity easy fight for Islam today.
