the GOAT conversation will never be settled.

you could take the greatest minds in history in a room together discussing this.

just recency bias alone is a logical fallacy which we're all victim of.

we were not around to witness the true domination of fighters such as

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crixus <--- Don't fuck with the Gauls

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flamma

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melankomas <--- greek boxer who won fights by simply dodging everything and never being hit once.


and this again is recency bias because it pertains to our greco-roman influence on western/European society.

you can't possibly begin to say greatest of all TIME without including the men who are the reason you can watch this sport in the first place.

but you'll never see them in action. you'll need only trust their records and the legends that were written about them.

not enough good fights to be considered GOAT


and he never fought above his weight class; in fact missed weight in his last fight and pulled out of multiple fights because he couldn't make weight. so POUND FOR POUND he's way down on the list, especially since his best 2 wins are vs two former featherweights

Maybe csnt say who is the goat, but you can definitely say who isn't the goat. Gsp and JJ have 3x the defenses habeb does, he held the belt for 2 years. He is not the greatest

real fighters show up to fight every SINGLE time, that's why all of them have losses. if you cherry pick your fights and never show up unless you are 1000% health you can have a padded career that no one will remember

Cherry picking. You mean like earlier this year when former champ champ took a shot at Cowboy instead of Gaethje?
Or how you choose to fight Eddie Alvarez instead of the guy whose undefeated and spent the last 2 years trying to fight you.

You right. Real ones show up to fight their weight class not a weight above to pad stats.

the fact is; khabib needs another fight with conor to make his career worth a shit. usman or conor


if he fought GSP it wouldn't solidify shit because we all saw him struggle vs bisping. if khabib wins "GSP was washed up" and it does nothing for his career and if GSP wins khabib is erased forever.
