    7 Reasons Khabib's the GOAT imo: 1. Most 10-8 rounds in UFC history. By far the most dominant fighter in the Octogon. 2. It's debatable if he even lost a round in a golden era in the most stacked division. 3. Has never been made to drop a single drop of blood in the Octogon or had a black eye. 4. Never cheated with steroids. 5. Was promised a title shot by the UFC way back in 2016, was sent a contract in to fight Alvarez for the title in Sept 2016 but was used as a pawn in negotiations and the lightweight title shot was given to featherweight Mcgregor. Mcgregor beat Alvarez and held the belt hostage for 2 years without defending it, further delaying Khabib's rightful title shot. So had to win 10 straight fights (in the most stacked division) to finally get his title shot whereas GSP got it in 3 fights and Jones got it in 7. Yet he still managed to get in 3 title defences. (How many defences would he have if he got his title shot in 2016? 5-6). 6. Was out for 2 years and came back from career threatening injuries without any ring rust and was still as dominant as ever. Dominated Michael Johnson with a 9 mm hernia in his spine. Fought Justin Gaethje with two broken toes. 7. A true champion by being a good representation of the sport. Humble and hard working - the values of mixed martial arts. Didn't need to trash talk to sell fights.

    @@dusher7448 well, even though it was chaotic, but the main reasons he did that was because Mc Nuggets provocations went beyond the boundaries. Personally, if anyone tried to disgrace your religion which you hold dearly to your heart, having your whole team getting attacked, disgracing your wife, then even I'd get really pissed off myself. Different people from different places don't share the same customs from 1 to another. If making a mockery of such things in your country is ok, it doesn't mean it's ok in another. Though, Im not saying what he did was right, but patience has its limits and the limits of khabib had been crossed. What should actually been done to prevent this was to have UFC to set a limit to how much you can provoke a guy. Even if it's just for the sake to bring in more money, you still need to place a level to how far you can take the so-called "just doing business" thing.

    *KHABIB* - Has dominated every single opponent of his, has only lost 2/3 rounds in 29 fights. Cleaned out the most stacked division in the sport. Undefeated. Most dominant fighter ever. Never tested positive. BUT only has 3 title defenses. *GSP* - Has 10+ title defenses. Perhaps most complete fighter in MMA history. World champion in 2 weight classes. Has lost twice, by knockout and submission, but he avenged both. Also never tested positive. *JONES* - Youngest UFC champ ever. Most title defenses in UFC history. Reigning supreme for 10+ years. Cleaned out 2 era’s of Light Heavyweights. But he has tested positive multiple times, and in many people’s eyes, he lost to Reyes. Also controversial wins over Gustafsson and Santos. *SILVA* - Middleweight GOAT. Reigned supreme over his division for 10+ years. Changed the game with his fighting style. But also tested positive. Its a matter of what weighs most in your eyes. For me its between Khabib and GSP.

    “Pound for Pound” is determined subjectively by the pundits which assumes a hypothetical scenario where everyone is the same weight class, who would have the skillset to beat them all. So if you bring the argument of the era of champ champ or title defense , you gotta talk about the era of never losing, era of never bleeding, never cut, arguably never lost a round, never faced a two-way war always a one-sided beatdown, never knocked-down, never cheated, and never failed a drug test, era of the most 10-8 round, era of everybody knowing what you are going to do but no one could stop it.. etc. As you can see, its hard to talk about that “era” because theres no one that can fit into that category. Khabib is literally the first of his era which may never be repeated again - unlike the era of champ champ / title defense. Those champs champs can never say they havent lost a round or havent failed a drug test, or havent bled, or never faced significant adversity. Khabib is the only one with the record to say that. Therefore, we come back to the original point: “Pound for Pound” as the name implies, refer to a hypothetical situation where everyone is the same weight, who would have the skills to dominate the rest. So with facts available to us, how can you that deny khabib’s skills would dominate in the pound for pound scenario? Track record and skill-to-skill STRONGLY suggest he would. In a p4p tournament where everybody is the same weight and you have to put your life savings on one fighter at the start, we are only left with khabib as the best bet. Thats basically how p4p works

    Khabib has fought what, 5 people who were ever in the top 5 of his division? Jon Jones beat 11 #1-3 contenders and "interim" champ belt holders. The longer you're at the top, the more time people have to study your game and really expose weaknesses, which is why Jon hasn't put on insane performances lately. It's an entirely unfair comparison. Jon looked pretty much untouchable until Gustafsson (maybe 1st round vs. Machida too). Those are also guys 50lbs heavier at weigh-ins hitting Khabib, so that's something which would need to be factored in when looking at p4p (that is, you'd have to standardize power. Of course a 290lber doesn't need the technical ability of a 135er. That's why p4p is somewhat stupid to even look at - your style is dependent on your weight class, what's the value in trying to standardize something that is necessarily different?). Khabib has also missed weight several times, so I wouldn't pretend he is flawless. He has pulled out of what, 5 fights in the UFC? (off the top of my head: Tony twice, Cowboy twice and I think one other time - not counting the Tony2020 pull out because that wasn't his fault). Not bleeding just doesn't matter. Nate Diaz's eye opens up when he puts his mouthpiece in. Who cares? That'll depend on bone anatomy and everything. I know people like to talk about how Khabib got rocked against Michael Johnson (I didn't see it. Khabib has a very spazzy stand up defense when people are pushing forward), but I think Gaethje actually rocked him with a few really good shots this past weekend. Zero hate on Khabib. Dude is a machine, but I just think it's way too soon to say best to ever do it.

    A point that doesnt get brought up in this conversation regarding the number of title defences and how much they matter, is how many wins did the fighters get before being given the title shot, Khabib had to get 9 UFC wins before getting his shot at the title. In comparison Jones got the shot after 6 UFC wins, GSP got his first shot after 2 UFC wins, lost then got his second shot after 4 UFC wins, Anderson Silva got it after just 1 UFC win, DJ got it in a newly made Flyweight division after 1 UFC win and 1 draw. Those are the champs that have the most title defences. So had Khabib got his title shot as early as those guys he would've had way more title defences by now, all in his usual dominant fashion im sure.

    GSP won the title in 2006 and locked up the WW division from 2007 to 2013 and came back to win the MW belt in 2017. Khabib took a vacant title in 2018 against someone who wasn't top 5 and defended 3 times. You can argue maybe Khabib might have gotten the belt sooner if he was healthy, but he didn't. Defending that many years is much harder than people think.

After all, we are never going to know if he could win against jones, or silva... or a lot of fighters that are not in the lw division. But... yeah, i'll take it: khabib GOAT of the lightweights

    Khabib dominance: Michael Johnson when he was almost next up to be the title contender, dominated, submitted Dos Anjos at basically his prime, right before he would bounce back to win title after, dominated. Every round with some 10-8s Barboza, at the time probably the best overall striker in the division, top ranked, basically wanted to quit at the end of the 1st round, multiple 10-8s Iaquinta, still top 5-10 ranked guy, multiple 10-8 rounds, never a threat anywhere to Khabib Then of course Conor, Porier, Gaethje - Submission x3 3 of probably top 5-6 lightweights all time?

    Khabib only defended his title 3 times compared to people like GSP, Jones and Demetrious who did so 9-15 times. He was also a very one dimensional fighter and not nearly as well-rounded as the others that are in the mix. His competition wasn't as tough as others, I believe he only fought four guys that were in the top 5. Khabib has a great record but only 13 of his fights were in the UFC compared to the others who have had many more. I believe Jones has 24 fights in the UFC. Also Khabib doesn't have any belts in multiple weight classes like Demetrious, Amanda or GSP. Also, is Khabib CURRENTLY the number one pound for pound fighter? How can that be if he is retired. He's not fighting, he's done he said, how can an inactive retired guy be he current number one guy?

    @Jade M I didn't say that Khabib never faced any top guys. He fought Justin, Porier and Conor. But then just before that he fought Al Iquinta who got called in on a weeks notice, Al is not a top top guy. Michael Johnson, what has that guy done, Barboza has been down hill as well. But even if you are correct and those guys are top 5 guys....my points was Jones, GSP, Nunes and those people have fought way MORE top competition than Khabib.

    @UCktYSI_OHPAVtUeks7ZJQcw Ok, if you are stuck on the PED issue then just replace Jones with GSP who was clean. Also, the biggest objection that you never addressed is Khabib's title defenses which is only 3 compared to GSP's 9 and then another title fight in another weight class. Keeping the belt for that many times in a row is not an easy thing to do. You face the top guy every time for the most part, more pressure as champ, media to deal with and other challenges being the champ for a long stretch of time. Only 3 title defenses looks very week on a GOATs resume. Also, being champ in multiple weight classes in an impressive feat which Khabib never did and never even attempted. Is this also no big deal in your GOAT criteria?

    @Jade M You said that GSP has been in "more than a few fights that could EASILY have gone the other way." I'm very curious to hear the fights that were a decision that you think you may have or probably lost? Hendricks is the only fight that was close. You said that there are more than a few, so name the 3 or 4 fights that he had that could have gone the other way. Besides the 5 guys that you listed, would you say that the rest of Khabib's opponents were not the top level fighters? Like out of 29 wins which is a great record....only 5 of those 29 were top tier. All of this talk is mainly subjective and preference, there's no right or wrong ultimately. Yes Khabib has been dominant.....but do you not see there being something to be said that as a MIXED martial artist that to be the greatest you should be high level at all or many of the disciplines of fighting? Khabib didn't have the worst karate ever, boxing, muay thai and other stand up but he certainly wasn't great or top level at those other styles. Whereas GSP, Jones, Demetrious etc were really good at all of the different styles. If you are basing it all just on wins and dominance than sure, but others look at what it says for a fighter to take the time to master a mix of the martial arts.

    @Jade M Matt Hughes, Frank Trigg, Koshcheck, Serra, Fitch, Penn, Sherk, Hardy, Alves, Nick Diaz, Shields, Condit, Hendricks, Bisbing. You said Khabib has had 6 top level guys, I would say 4 or 5. Whereas GSP like I just listed has 14 top level guys that he has fought. Blows Khabib out of the part on that one. Some of those guys are not legends but the point is that at the time that GSP fought them they were the top fighters. Why can't I list Bisbing, lol? He was a good fighter and was the champion when they fought!

    @Jade M If everyone is so big on records and number of wins....Sherk was 36-4-1 in his professional record and had the title of former UFC lightweight champion. I'm not saying he was the greatest! Just that at the time he was in the top mix. But sure, maybe you are right on a couple of those guys. Bottom line is GSP fought way more top level guys compared to Khabib's 4 or 5 guys. With Koshcheck and Alves...they were ranked in the top 5 or higher and were next in line for a title shot, therefore making them top ranked guys. With Bisbing it doesn't matter if he had one leg, the fact is that he was a good top fighter, ranked in the top 5 and that proves my point. Even more so he had the belt and so if he was champion then he was a top level fighter. Don't know why you would make the point of GSP fighting many cans when so has Khabib. All fighters do when they are starting out. My point is that GSP and Jones fought more stiffer competition.

He's been disqualified for steroids, he's been disqualified for illegal strikes, he nearly killed a pregant woman while drunk and fled the scene, he threatened to kill DC on national television, etc. So how could you be surprised that he'd try to undermine Khabib's greatest moment with his own insecurities? He SHOULD be insecure. His resume as both a fighter and as a man can't hold a candle to Khabib.

    It's not even up to debate. It's either Khabib or GSP. Whether you like it or not, those are the 2 GOATS that will be remembered for the next few generations. Being the GOAT is partly evident on how many people want to see you fighting. Based on that, you reduce that lot by how dominant they were, when they fought against the quality of the opponents. Wins over new generations skilled fighters are more prominent that the older gen because now almost everyone has good take down defense, bjj, better gameplans, supplements, etc unlike the past. Hence why Khabib tops that due to sheer domination of his opponents who had great skills! That 0 next to Khabib is what makes the biggest difference, even GSP acknowledged that.
