      Stipe was the closest to it at 4 times, UFC's HW division has always been the wonkiest tbh. During the PRIDE era it was weaker then PRIDEFc's HW div.

        LOL at hid, Ngannnou got KOed by that same guy he beat, remember that was a rematch. Jones will utterly ****** Ngannou. Their are levels to this and frankly if you think ANYONE is clean in MMA then I can sell you lots of real estate on venus.

          Jones won't do anything to Ngannou because he won't fight him. It doesn't take 3 years to put on a potbelly. He only came out of the woodwork when Ngannou left. That's fact, and no amount of UFC fanboy cheerleading will change that. He was offered the Ngannou fight multiple times during those 3 years and turned them all down. And you know who never popped for PEDS? Demetrious Johnson. Or Ngannou, for that matter. GTFO with your hero worship of a cheating felon who ducked Ngannou for 3 years. You can say all you want, but just like Jones, all it will EVER be is words, and it won't ever change the FACT that Jones turned down the Ngannou fight saying he wasn't ready for 3 years, until Ngannou left.

            In fairness it was April Fools Day.

            I mean if you don't know this guy would say the sky is yellow one day & the next day say its blue & the next day would say its pink you haven't been paying attention & therefore you can't take this guy seriously when he speaks. Some ppl are like this. We all know them altho probably not this extreme. No one should trust a fight he talks about happens til he's in the ring including this Ngannou fight.

            Hell I watched his Netflix show & this is how he is daily with his family. And while I'm sure some of that was scripted I bet they didn't have to script all his erratic behavior.

              If Wilder and Ruiz don't want the #1 mandatory spot, the WBC should offer Sanchez and Makmudov the chance to fight for it, right?
              Well, I think what he's saying is that Fury's earned the right to pursue this Boxing v. MMA challenge, and that the WBC isn't going to get in the way of a unification fight against Usyk or a super fight (it's still a super fight) against Joshua, by throwing another random mandatory in his path right now.

              i gotta hand it to Mr. Sulaiman.......that's exactly what I would do!!!!!

              This is good for boxing.

                I took a wait and see approach to Usyk comming up to Heavyweight even after Usyk-Joshua II, and I'm still kinda waiting after the Dubois fight. Although I'm certainly convinced that Usyk is amoung the top 4 with Fury, Wilder, and Zhang.

                I find Jon Jones is a similar position.
                If Stipe Miocic still has gas in the tank, that upcoming bout will solidify Jones as a true dominant Heavyweight in the slow moving UFC top division.

                  How long would you wait to enforce a mandatory if a fight against Joshua or Usyk isn't made?

                    that head swivel tick is extra scary.

                    Tangentially......Do you rememder the Heavyweight contender who used to be a repeating guest star on "Get Smart"?
                    I think I can figure it out through logical deduction: Most of the Schmaltz guys... Slapsy Maxie, Max Bauer were last generation... Hum? No, I can't figure it out! I should know this considering how dear that show is to my heart.
