True...That doesn't say much for MMA P4P list imo. You can get into that top 5 p4p just from defending your belt a couple times cause titleholders drop like flies

Cody already there :skip:
Stipe bout to slip in
Bisping top 10 :heh:


I think P4P is more relevant for boxing fr

Defended a belt more than Anderson Silva is only a couple of times?:pachaha::pachaha:MMA's P4P isn't bad at all for a sport that is like 30 or so years old. I'm not going to do some stupid shyt like say "compare this with boxing 30 years in" but when you got a clear group of GOATs (so far) then I don't think that's too bad.:manny:
Cormier, bones, Connor, Anderson, aldo.
Done. More wins over better competition.
Cormier and Conor?:mjlol: Ok, the :mjlol:was mostly for Conor, who hasn't defended a UFC belt a day in his life and isn't even the clear greatest LW of all time with Khabib around, BJ's accomplishments (he actually won his first WW fight and became champ while doing it. Actually defended his belt) and had tough fights against Nate Diaz, who is damn good but lost like half of his UFC fights. DJ isn't losing to the Nate Diazes of the world. Also, Cormier is great but he is the no. 2 of all time in his division.

Miguel Torres retires from MMA. It's crazy how hard Torres fell off. At one point, he was 37-1 and considered a top 10 P4P fighter.



:picard:




:ehh:


Breh, Torres was the man for a while there. I remember people talking superfight for Torres vs Faber when they were the kings of WEC. Dude crashed hard.

On Gastelum, I saw Josh Gross say that Whitaker vs Gastelum should go down...I'd like that one.

Dana is talking 100 mil for Mayweather, 75 mil for Conor. I think it's gonna come down to how willing Conor's gonna be to give up a sizable piece of that to the UFC because they damn sure are getting something. IF it happens I'm almost certain we never see Conor in the Octagon again, that pay day would set him up for life.

We're just gonna pretend you didnt say this:francis:

lol nah man....UFC as a sport tends to hype a lot of frauds,thats with no comparison to other sports. I mean Ronda was topping that list and getting GOAT considerations just 2 years ago . Lots of divsions are still developing or shallow af (flyweight)

It's all good tho I actually enjoy the shark tanky nature of UFC.

Still wish we got prime Kid Yamamoto Vs Urijah Faber. I'd almost go as far as to say that's the best matchup we never got.
