BJ's fights at other weight classes has no bearing on who the greatest LW of all time is.
It's also fucking hilarious you think BJ had a better career than Khabib. If you want to say he's more legendary or whatever, go for it, but he absolutely did not have a better career than Khabib.
Maybe read the O.P first..
Didnt say shit about LW goat...
Which him and Khabib are tied..
Qualifications of a Divisional GOAT
1) win a title in any division
2) defend that title more times then any previous champion against ranked opponents...
Both khabib and Bj Penn did this 3 times...therefore there tied...
O.P is talking about better career..
And hands down being a two division champion is better then being 1 division champion and given that there tied for defenses it only strengthens Penn case for a better career..
But but khabib is undefeated...ya with over half those wins being against 3w -40L cans in russia...with no wiki pages...
Unlike BJ Penn record who is literally a list of the whos who of MMA past and present and future...
Its not even close..
Recency bias is a motherfucker tho...Prime Motivated Penn boxes Khabibs ears off with that awkward stand up defense khabib tries and likely flying knees him into the WW division had they met prime for prime...GSP and Hughes much bigger grapplers then khabib and Penn and they struggled to take him down...
