Good points but he doesn't have a 145 build. He was smart enough to starve himself into competing at 145 and I think 170 is too big for him, but 155 seems perfect. I have him at #1 provisionally because he has a chameleon body. idk if he will be able to get back down after being up for a while now.

He really is a chameleon, im sure with enough time he could manage 145 again but theres really no point unless too fight max. It takes a lot to have that kind of discipline. Has he ever pulled out of a fight? Missed weight? Has he ever declined a last minute fight after his opponents kept dropping out? he really is something special, and you can tell the influence hes had on other fighters that are now doing things hes done. In terms of stance, style, talking trash, persona. Its crazy

Its just a shame he blew up so quickly and we don't get too see him perform every few months.

What a shit list
Aldo and holloway only ones that should even be in the conversation, pulver and Penn were champions when there was no real talent around, mcregor is a fluke champion that ran scared from the division, Edgar hasn't worn the strap in the division so he's out, And bendo has never fought at feather weight

So because mcgregor left to fight bigger people he is scared of the division? What kind of weird perspective is this lmao, he has dominate wins over both of the people you consider the best 145's lmao yet Conor isnt one of them?

You people just hate conor because hes conor.

I'm jim. I'm saying conor isn't a fw anymore. He had a good run and would prob still be champ if he could get through max again. I don't see anybody else in that division that would beat him, but he doesn't fight at 145, and no title defenses doesn't make you the goat. You cant run from defending your title at least once and still hope to be considered the best. If khabib wins the strap and never fights again is he the greatest lw of all time?

You might be right about Ben Henderson. I thought he fought at 145 before the UFC. Guess not. I had a question mark there. He looked pretty good for a while in his career.
