Look at the card last night.
Aside from Khabib, Gaethje and Whittaker what other world class fighter was was on that card? Cannonier? Volkov?
The PBC card had both Charlos, Derevyanchenko, Nery, Casimero etc.
There’s a reason these guys get paid a fraction of what the real world class fighters get.

Originally posted by TMLT87 View PostI would probably have to agree, him or Jones. GSPs overall level of competition was the strongest, then Jones's, then Andersons. And all three of them had long extended periods where they dominated their division. Khabib has not had that.
GSP was really the best representation of a true martial artist in and out of the cage.
Anderson has an argument for sure but he stuck around too long with all the ticky tacky losses that have come about and that blemished things.
Now Khabib was damn dominant but only 13 UFC fights over 8 years and with only 3 title defenses, I would have loved to see more before he retired at only 32 now.

And I think boxing champions do fight each other, it is greatly exaggerated all of this 'They never face each other talk'.
The things people complain about in boxing 'Have always been'.
It has never ever been run like the way the UFC operates etc.

The PBC card had both Charlos, Derevyanchenko, Nery, Casimero etc.
The Charlo card on the other hand, was a bunch of fights lasting much longer than a 5 round MMA championship fight, most of them having no knockdowns or exciting flashpoints. Nothing particularly memorable, no real hype. It felt small time, because it was, shouldnt have even been on PPV because there wasnt enough demand for it. And the concept of a "world class" fighter loses its value when theres 17 male divisions with 4 major belts available in each and a lot of guys wont be fighting each other anytime soon if at all anyway.

I watched the last 3 fights. All 3 fights were 1 sided. I thought the 3 fights on ESPN last week were better imo.
