Ngannou basically walked through it just by being bigger and stronger, pretty much all his opponent's just stood in front of him and traded punches for some reason apart from Lewis, Stipe in the first fight, and Gane.

Nah, he's not going to touch Jon unfortunately. DC beat Stipe, and we all know how Jon matches up into Cormier. Jon is a superior grappler, is about the same size, and is better on the feet. I don't think Stipe beats Gane honestly, Gane is way better at striking and actually has some submission threat. Stipe's kind of done honestly, I don't see him taking the belt back, and if Francis ever comes back, or when Gane learns to wrestle, he's basically just going to be a gatekeeper. Heavyweight is just a really weak division right now, which is why Francis cleaned it out by just being big and strong, and why Stipe was so successful despite being average at best. If Gane learns how to wrestle, he's going to dominate it for years. At the moment Jon is going to beat any Heavyweight they throw at him, I'm fairly sure Jones would smash Ngannou as well.

I know that the physiology of heavyweights is very different from every other weight class, but the 2 factors that seem to guarantee a short title run are durability and stamina. There are several who I thought could have made it to a championship fight eventually, but I think they banked too hard on their durability and took dangerous risks for quick finishes because the gas tank would eventually come into question. One such favorite was Roy big country Nelson. I really thought he would have been a great addition to a list like this. Wishful thinking though.

Then you have a significant amount of time where PRIDE had a better HW division than UFC, that matters when you're comparing UFC HW of that era to other eras, and on top of that, steroids, which is an issue in the entire sport, but let's be real, it's a more meaningful issue at HW than at any other division.

Great list, but the commentary given on DC’s reign I don’t think justifies his No. 2 spot. An argument could be made for such high status but it was not present here. Otherwise, spot on list 👏

Why was the lasagne graphic and horse whinny so funny 🤣

This was such a well done list!

I'm surprised Francis is top 5. He didn't do much, looks like the other HW champs really didn't defend at all.

Absolutely not, DC is ranked way too high. His win against Stipe was controversial. He was warned several times about eye pokes. His hook that knocked Stipe out was immediately after he poked Stipe in the eye, on the same side. He did the same thing in the two rematches. Stipe had a partial detached retina from it. Derrick Lewis had like 3 months between fights when he fought DC and he had a bad back, which was why he didn't really engage with Ngannou in that fight.

Do Top 15 MMA Announcers!

If Arlovsky had just paced himself against Sylvia after knocking him down in that 2nd fight, I think he goes on a run and is definitelyranked higher, idk if he beats Couture, but he definitely gives him a better fight than Sylvia did.

You guy's forgot about Randlemans title defense of Pedro Rizzo.

Daniel Cormier above Cain Valasquez is an outrage. I get that Daniel Cormier gets bonus points for his what if at light heavyweight and achieving double champ status, but yikes. Cain came up at a time when the heavyweight division was stacked killers and made them look like they were no where near his league. He got screwed over not only by injuries but also some fights knocking out crazy contenders making him fight Bigfoot and JDS twice over 4 fights. His run up and everything included during such a deep division... I could see them being switched around. Daniel should have 3rd and Cain 2nd.

I hate both Jones and McGregor. This will be a tough year for me.

DC being above Randy and Cain is crazy to me lol

Great show, but slight mistake was made, kevin Randleman, DID have a successful title defense, it was against Pedro rizzo at ufc 26, he won a clear ud.

I think Jon is just looking to pass Stipes Heavyweight title defense record and call it a day. After that, he would pretty much be the GOAT of two divisions and his overall GOAT claim would be undeniable at that point.

Jones being so highly ranked after a single win at heavyweight is insane to me. The guy he beat is a striker with some of the worst takedown defence we have seen in that division.

But Ngannou is way ahead of him, yet Ngannou lost to Miocic, he did then beat him - but only when Miocic was 40 years old. He then went 5 rounds to a decision with the same guy that JJ put away in 2 mins. So I don't see why JJ is lower than Ngannou.

Gotta love Tommy-the-cartoon-toehold and his unbiased breakdowns. As a numbers man myself, I love how analytical he gets. Tommy placing his boy JBJ that low on the list lets you know he's willing to swallow his biases and get to the hard truths. Jones fanboy as he may be, Tommy is realistic, and i respect it!

Jones was always terrified of facing a true champ like a prime Ngannou. Waited for him to leave UFC altogether before he even considered pretending to be a legit Heavyweight champ.

Please do other weight divisions!

@@lune6oslit716 yep, exactly what I mean, there were some other guys with multiple disciplines back then, but not a whole lot, and pretty much none with his size and power. And we should give the guy a little credit where it's due, he did have a high level of skill, just not compared to how the sport has advanced since then. Most giant monsters like him were just big goons that are awkward and gas out in 3 minutes.

I hope these are coming for all divisions

Frank mir is lucky to be alive. I never knew that amount of detail, 'The back of my helmet hit the curb', not many survive that. Now I see his comeback run in the same light as the legend Vinny Pazienza after he broke his neck, came back to be champion. 2 tough ass muthafxckers

We all know that Ngannous was avoiding nate. Can we all just admit that? Now that theyre both out of their contract maybe they could do boxing or a slapping contest (i dont see Nate losing that)

Would have put it this way: 1. Miocic 2. Couture 3. Cain 4. DC
