The best thing to sum up Alex is the fact that his longest answer at the post fight press was giving well wishes and support to Jiri after a knockout loss like that. Never really pushes to promote himself or hype up his wins, just keeps it short and sweet and just says chama. What a legend.

Chuck Mindenhall called this on Morning Kombat a long time ago. He said “what if the story of Adesanya/Peirera isn’t about Israel, it’s really all about Alex”. If Israel doesn’t have a resurgence, that could end up being the case.

Their stories will be forever aligned. Would AP have even been brought to the UFC is there wasn't the Izzy story? Would Izzy have just continued on his run, and retired as a long-reigning champ if his kryptonite hadn't shown up to chop him down? Either way, couldn't have asked for a better outcome - and I say that as a massive Izzy fan. We're lucky this whole thing happened and we're getting to see AP work at the highest level, changing narratives everywhere as he does so.

And at this point, a win over a Bones that cheated all his career and wants a soft landing with Stipe has nothing to do with Alex's GOAT status. If Poatan manages to add that 3rd belt, he would have to be consensus GOAT just on sheer merit alone (only 2-division Glory AND 3-division UFC)

Plus goat debate is about who got the greatest accomplishment in the history of the sport, who is the greatest? And 3 division champion is arguably the greatest accomplishment in the history of the sport, so loses matter less in goat debates than it is in TBE debate, who is the best ever? It's not like TBE, who is the best fighter ever? Which is more about who got the best skills and and would theoretically beat everyone if they were in the same weight class. It's very hard to proof TBE unlike goat status. So poatan has a very good chance of becoming the goat, he doesn't need to beat jon jones.

Idk if Jon would stick around to do it, but my guess is, Jon sees a clear path to victory via wrestling nd the upside is BIG for Jon’s legacy specially if it’s his last fight so I gotta think it’s possible to get it done

You and I are in the same boat when it comes to basketball i guess, my favorite player of all time was Clyde Drexler. I mean he eventually won a championship, but not with his team, the Blazers, The Rockets were more Hakeem's team and Clyde was just supporting role. It's really shitty how little praise or acknowledgement he gets nowadays, especially by younger people as well as from current sports media - who rarely mention him when talking bout the leagues best ever 2-guards, even though he in fact should be considered, if not the 3rd - then certainly at the very least the 4th greatest shooting guard of all time. And alot of that has to do with him playing while MJ was.

Maybe Perreira KOs Ankalaev as well, but there are still too many doubts around his ability to fight Wrestlers. He needs to defeat Ankalaev. Period. After that he can move to Heavyweight.

I don't beleive Brian Ortega story of moving to LW. This doesn't make any sense. He just had a win against Yair and was one fight away from another title shot. Why would a guy let go of #1 contender match instead move up a weight class and start from scratch. I am not accusing him of doing this deliberately but it seems because of his mental health issues he wasn't disciplined enough to maintain weight after his last fights.

If I was Pereira I'll first take Ankalaev fight cement my legacy at LHW and shut all doubters. After that if Izzy comes out on top against DDP then have this big money fight against Izzy. Post that hopefully Jon Jones will be Heavyweight Champion and get that Biggest Money Fight. Although if not Jon Jones then any heavyweight champion will do.

Ariel’s glazing of Ian Gary is one of the reasons ppl find him annoying and hypocritical. In what world does Ian belong in the same sentence as Shavkav. He’s winning but the hype and bravado just doesn’t meet the performance. Yet always downplays the performances of the Dagestani fighters

Again and again we have p4p debates without even knowing the meaning of it. It definitely doesn't mean which champion can become a champion in other weight class. It means if all champions are in the same weight class then who'd come out on top. Can you think of Pereira defeats Islam if they are same weight. I'll put Perreira even behind Sean O'Malley and Leon Edwards.
