Every person in the GOAT conversation has used PEDs extensively.

I agree that gsp is the goat

I’ve got no problem with you thinking gsp is the goat. But saying there’s no argument against it when Jon Jones exists is ridiculous.

Everyone immediately dismissed op and changed the conversation into who the actual goats are.

Longest winstreak in UFC history and title defenes in the most competitive division laughable? A title defense against a well rounded 6 foot 3 fighter in the higher division who is undefeated save for a decision against Shavkat is better than any win GSP or Jones had. Islam has a strong argument after that despite your nostalgia for older non Russian fighters.

So are you saying Jon or GSP defended against an actual larger, younger well rounded fighter when they moved up?

What win did Jones have that could be bigger than Islam running over Garry? or GSP? Name one of their wins respectively that is better. I’m going to have to ask you please.

Respect to Garry as well.

He has a decent shot against Islam due to the massive size advantage plus he’s skilled, younger and well rounded.

This is a freak show fight.

If Islam can beat a guy this big and well rounded when people used to say he was afraid to move up oh boy it’s over for Islam haters.

If criteria is destroying guys bigger than you than Fedor is goat by a long shot.

This is a thread about UFC GOAT.

It’s a different conversation than Pride GOAT.

That said Garry is not only much larger, but also very skilled and well rounded.

The differences in rules and regulations made it a different sport to me, I don’t compare different eras that far appart.

LOL

Big rig was roided to the gills and was in his prime. He still lost to a GSP that was at the end of his career.

Big rig was washed after this figjt

Georges was juiced as well and didn’t fight under USADA.

Big Rigs fucked him up. Everyone thought GSP lost. He left the sport after for years talking about being abducted by aliens until he poached Bisping, then immediately quitting.

Islam has the balls to defend after moving up unlike GSP or Jon.

It is what it is.

Islam very well might become the goat, but he isn’t there yet.

Big rig fell off a cliff with usada, I mean he turned into a sub gate keeper from being a dominant fighter.

GSP did test himself against the best fighters available. Maybe he didn’t want Anderson, that’s understandable, but he is still the WW goat

Honestly there are how many champs with 4-5 title wins? You’re kind of in that top 20-30 territory not top 5 GOAT convo.

Yeah GSP had a 10 year reign and defended his title against the best fighters available

Yes you need that decade of dominance (I mean against top 5 comp not just wins). Fedor had it, gsp had it, bones had it, islam hasn’t even hit 4 years yet of top 5 domination. He might get there but he’s still behind even mighty mouse imo.

Mighty Mouse beat cans but it wasn’t his fault. He dominated everyone

Aldo probably still ahead of him a bit. 5 years of domination but it was 10 title fights.

Islam is the most well rounded best fighter in the UFC of the lot.

This is why he’s able to move up a division and defend a title there and will have the highest winstreak ever if he wins.

Still Khabib’s dish rag tho.

Who is the best is all theoretical until they lose. So many dudes looked unstoppable until they got beat. That’s why the multi year dominance is so important and he just needs time just like khabib did but he ran away like a little girl.
