Media Daniel Cormier And Chael Sonnen: "There's No Conversation" Alex Pereira Is GOAT If Wins Third Belt

[Black9]

Is he?
He'd be the first 3 division champ in UFC history, doesn't have much defenses however.

Chael and DC agreeing on this.
Must mean Dana is already shooting a promo for Aspinall vs Poatan for the all-new "Greatest Ever" belt

 

[Domitian]

People would still bitch and say it's not really a 3rd belt.

 

[krelianx]

I think that's silly. No, he wouldn't be the GOAT for being the first 3-division champ.

 

[Gang Sign Luke]

DC is kind of a whore. He'd take a bullet for Dana White.

EDIT: someone please post the Jon Jones head kick gif

 

[RoñaCastroJr]

I LOVE Alex
But this talk is NONSENSE
Until he actually win the 3rd belt

Chal and DC.. LOL

Talk about shills and snake oil sellers

Good, fuck 'em

 

[RoñaCastroJr]

DC is kind of a whore. He'd take a bullet for Dana White.

Wait

Why do you say ' kind of ' ?

He is a 100% paid/bought/shill whore

 

[J'Ghasta]

I think that's silly. No, he wouldn't be the GOAT for being the first 3-division champ.

He'd have to knock Jones specifically out becoming a 3 division champ in the process to enter the conversation.

I think if Poatan gets 3 titles he'll be one of the GOATs, just because it's never been done before, but not THE GOAT

Winning and defending your belt, ruling the division with an iron fist and destroying the career aspirations of challenges >>> winning 3 titles but not defending them multiple times

 

[ipowerslapmywife]

Being the best fighter at 3 weight divisions would make him the GOAT

 

[TempleoftheDog]

The thing that has to be understood is Alex is NOT a MW. Whether he made weight, or not. He was clearly one of the biggest weight cutters ever in the UFC when he fought at MW.

He’s accomplished a LOT in a short time. But a LOT of people believe consecutive title defences is harder to do than winning a second belt at a higher weight.

Alex just defended which is good. He wasn’t able to do that at MW. The odds are stacked against him winning the HW title. But, it’s certainly possible. His best shot at that is obviously a free TS at HW. Because I’m not sure he could beat a top contender at HW. Like he did at LHW, to earn a HW TS.

I just don’t think it’s likely. But it is possible. If, or when he signs for either a number 1 contender fight, or a free TS at HW. Then I’ll be able to say more.

But imo, winning the HW title wouldn’t make him the best ever. It would be remarkable, but without the defences behind the titles. They don’t mean as much.

And DC is just being his ridiculous shill self. I give zero fucks what he says about anything.

Even if it's Jon Jones the one he knocks out?
I'm sure Dana can throw enough money at Jones to take the fight as itll be an all-time legacy type of fight.

 

[Domitian]

Alex trying to take everything Aspinall has worked for.

 

[Corrado Soprano]

Pereira vs Jones is the superfight MMA needs but somehow UFC management will argue that Jones-Stipe is a more meaningful fight.

 

[ryun253]

Idk about GOAT but he's accomplished a lot for someone coming from another sport to MMA

 

[krelianx]

He'd have to knock Jones specifically out becoming a 3 division champ in the process to enter the conversation.

I don't think that would suffice either. GSP, Jones, DJ have still more impressive resumes.

 

[JoeRowe]

Chael and DC agreeing on this.

I do think they would rather do that than Aspinall vs Blaydes 2 for UFC 304.

 

[nonoob]

DC is just being his ridiculous shill self. I give zero fucks what he says about anything.

DC and Chael are both described above, they're full of $hit ufc shills.​

Alex is a great champ, but goat discussion isn't relevant to ANY new fighter at all.

 

[Phrozenspite]

DC wants to make weight class jumping a bigger thing than it is so that he can improve his own standing

 

[Lights Out 101]

Winning belts is the easy part. Defending them is a whole different story. I think Ank takes Periera out.
