Sherdog is more about claiming every current UFC champion is the GOAT of their division.Never. This is Sherdog. He could defend the title 10 more times.

Lol never.i know hes still a bit off from beating GSP and Hughes, but lets look at some of his wins.
Carlos Condit
Stephen Thompson
Demian Maia
Kelvin Gastelum
Robbie Lawler
Stating the accomplishments of others in order to compare Tyron's run mean we're "hating" now?Even the fact that people aren't saying what he needs to get into the contention, shows that many are biased with their hatred
This.It's not just the defenses, it's the domination. Hughes and especially GSP mowed through the division. You can criticize GSP for not going for finishes after the Serra KO, but he mauled the people he faced. Ground them into the mat. Hughes' body slams were epic and his comeback after the nut shot from Trigg is still a candidate for best comeback ever. TWood may have the ability but he's dominated almost no one. That's what he needs to even enter the WW GOAT discussion.
I saw someone else claimin´ Hughes was P4P No1 at that time, he even sent me a ridiculous Internet P4P list (including Ricardo Almeida & França Nogueira, among others...)...First of all, it will be hard to pass two guys that were ranked top 1-3 p4p for a very long time. Woodley is good, but when Hughes was at his best, he wasn’t only considered the best WW in the world, but the single best fighter of all weightclasses. Gsp was also considered top 3 p4p.
Second, Tyron only has 3-4 title defences.
Oh stfu.Being Objective: His biggest wins are Wonderboyx2, Lawler, Fat Kelvin, Maia, Condit. If he beats Colby, and then 2-3 more guys while continuing to call out GSP and having GSP duck him, he'll be the goat WW. I personally don't think this will happen but it could. GSP refusing to fight him weighs a lot in that conversation.

Tyron doesn't get to be the GREATEST OF ALL TIME if his accomplishments aren't the GREATEST
See how that works?
