Denis Hallman has a claim at WW Goat (Pre GSP) as he beat Matt Hughes twice. Then we all looked at his actual career. Both Max and Aldo have more defenses then Conor. Aldo has more defenses then McGregor has fights in the UFC. Two things eliminate a fighter from GOAT discussion:
How can PEDs eliminate someone from the discussion if every top fighter is using them?
Conor is the GOAT at making money in MMA (aside from the Ferttitas) but if we are limiting it to in cage performance then defending matters. And this thread was specifically regarding FW GOAT. 2 division champ means shit at FW. Also the reason defenses matter is once a champion starts defending against legit #1 contenders they have to prove they can beat all styles. GSP beat every different style in different ways. Conor beat smaller guys who were lesser strikers. He avoided anyone with decent all around game and elite wrestling. MMA is like Rock, Paper, Scissors. Rock always beats Scissors but loses to weak old paper. Styles make fights and beating all styles makes GOATs.
its just Business, relax, nobody is going to take conir's balls out of your mouth
I mean, who cares about Aldo defending against subpar competition, he lost on his prime to Conor and Max, you can't deny it. Aldo was just a more dedicated champion
OK if thats what you think. GSP, Fedor, DJ and DC haven't popped but Jon Jones and Anderson have. Those are the top GOAT candidates so I will revise my #1 and state being stupid enough to get caught using PEDs while everyone else who are also cheating on PEDs don't get caught.
yes, they are stupid, they get lazy and aren't cautious like when they began. There are many ways to cheat. Is someone that injects his one Blood a cheater? A normal human has like 6 L blood, what if you injekt 1 Liter more... you can cary faster blood to your Muskels, your Muskels have more blood, so you are stronger... Who knows what Champions are doing to be way above a mortal human.
