Usman as the GOAT WW is such a joke take

[haj02]

It's really a joke how Dana thinks this. Leon Edwards is 1 or 2 defences away from having a better resume. GSP is clearly the WW GOAT and Usman is probably a distant second that could be surpassed with a decent title reign from Rocky. Usman's title run is really over rated as well, he only defended against Masvidal, Burns and Covington before Leon knocked him the fuck out.

He isn't even #2

 

[OldBoy91]

He's currently still employed by the UFC therefore he's the GOAT.

When he retires Dana will say Leon is the GOAT, and then Shavkat or whoever comes next will be GOAT after that.

Similar to how whoever is the current cash cow beats the highest score on their little punching machine.

Nobody listens to Dana Pink.

The easiest thing is to stop taking anything that dumbass has to say seriously.

He has tons of awful takes. He's an idiot and MMA will be better when he's gone

 

[TheMadHatter]

9x champ matt hughes is the clear number 2. He has a win over GSP. Loads of title defenses. Dana is just pushing recency bias to sell fights.

He isn't even #2

The fucking moments we've had in this sport and continue to have.

 

[WhiteMousse]

Did Dana say he's the WW GOAT?

What about GSP?

"Usman is the greatest of all time"

"I hit my wife"

"Jones has to fight Stipe"

"Slap fighting is great"

Usman fought way harder competition. He's better than GSP if you count the fights before his title, which he got late in his career. He was already declining when he fought Leah Edwards.

Who like? Emil Meek? Warley Alves? Sergio Moraes? I don't think that's true at all.

GSP lost goat status when he ducked giving Hendricks a rematch after he won that BS decision.

Just to eventually come back to fight the weakest possible mw champion ever.

 

[markantony20]

I think only Dana and Kamaru himself think that he is the WW GOAT.

Dana is a spiteful man about GSP this is very well known.

 

[blaseblase]

I pointed out a long time ago that he was too old to catch up to GSP. He started his career 4 older than GSP and took a lot longer to get to the title picture.

he's the goat ww...no question. but p4p, i'd give it to jones,fedor and mighty mouse

 

[kingghidrah]

Usman absolutely was the WW GOAT but then he lost 3 in a row proving that he never was any good

 

[jeff7b9]

I understand why the UFC pushes this horseshit because they have financial incentive to support this lie.

But why any fans are dumb enough to cosign it is beyond retarded.
Especially seeing the pattern that the UFC hypes every current guy as division goat with less than half the resume of the real goat.

Usman never caught up to Hughes let alone GSP.

 

[Tweak896]

I don't mind the argument that Usman could beat GSP and be better given the same opponents, there's definitely a way you could say it was a bad matchup for GSP. Usman had a long road to the title vs GSP had lots of early opportunity. But facts are facts and GSP had more high level fights and defended title more.

 

[TempleoftheDog]

Did Dana say he's the WW GOAT?

What about GSP?

Dana has been saying Usman is the WW GOAT since a fight or two before the Edwards rematch (When Edwards KO’d Usman).

Hughes is absolutely number 2.

 

[cws80us]

Dana saying that is only because he hates GSP. Nobody with any intelligence who is an actual fan of MMA believes that.
