[@kcsupersonic1]

The fact that Volk wasn't mentioned once this entire video is criminal. I doubt anyone would take Prime Aldo in a fight with current Volkanovski. We're talking about a guy who has never been finished in the UFC, who beat every other champion in his division's history aside from Conor. He also nearly beat Khabib's heir after moving up in weight. Across his entire career, he's fought and won fights in 3 different weight classes (Featherweight, Lightweight, and Welterweight).

[@ianfoirfe5879]

Agreed. Very bizarre not even a mention for Volk.

[@jaysworld707]

Arguably, he beat Islam but it was close.

[@Billynayshere]

It’s because Khabib is looking at body of work.. Volk hasn’t beaten a lot of big names and top guys, he beat max 3x, jair Rodriguez, and some older guys who are retired now ie Zombie and lost his chance for champ champ…

[@kcsupersonic1]

@@Billynayshere Volk also beat Ortega who knocked out a guy on Khabib's actual list in Frankie Edgar, who also lost to TKZ. He retired Chad Mendes who fought for the Featherweight title twice. He TKO'd Jeremy Kennedy who is currently like Bellator's Number 2 ranked Featherweight. He also stopped Darren Elkins' 6 fight winning streak. None of the guys Volk beat in his UFC career were anything other than high level Mixed Martial Artists. Jeremy Kennedy was 11-0 with a 3 fight win streak in the UFC before Volk took his 0 and he only has 3 recorded losses on his record. Brian Ortega likewise only has 3 losses in his career, all technically to UFC Featherweight champions (Yair was the Interim Champion) He also has as many consecutive Featherweight Title Defenses as Israel Adesanya (Rank 9) had Middleweight Defenses on his first stint with the belt and Kamaru Usman (Rank 8) had Welterweight Defenses and unlike Izzy has never lost in his division. He has had as many MMA fights in his professional career as GSP and has the same record as him. He has more fights in the UFC than Cejudo who has lost more times in the UFC than Volk has total losses on his resume. He has more wins in his career at Welterweight (3) than BJ Penn has wins at Featherweight (0). (Frankly Penn even being in anyone's Top 15 is idiotic considering Penn's total MMA record is 16-14-2) He also hasn't even lost a shot at Champ-Champ considering the promotion is itching to book him and Islam for a rematch.

[@starteck11]

Volk not being on the list is kinda crazy imo. I think Kamaru/Volk would be a good comparison and tie. Both mauled their division as champ (until leon showed up baby boom headshot). I can see how Cormier is above Henry because Khabib has bias from friendship and the weight difference between LHW and HW weights like Chael said. However I think the "2 divison OLYMPIC gold medalist" puts higher degrees on a legacy then "Multiple All American 2 division champ". Jon being number 1 is just facts. Might mouse could be tied with GSP. Both of those 2 are different level like Jon Jones but Jon has the constant clutch factor that he can win and beat the opponent that is why he is number 1. GSP and MM both have had ups and huge highs in their careers so its a hard tie IMO and that could fit Volk in the list.

Dominic Cruz defended the bantamweight title 3 times. Conor defended his titles zero times. Winning one fight can be a fluke, even if it's in spectacular fashion. Defending at title is what makes a great champion.

Just watched BJ Pen speak at the Lahaina, Maui city council meeting and wow he is courageous, brave, & intelligent.

[@johanjotun1647]

There can be NO arguement that The Emperor is GOAT.

[@bperry573]

Humility is what makes him a true champion

[@Darkdirewulf]

Adesanya being where he is makes sense , considering he's more or less a 1 dimensional striker, his wins are by tko/ko or decision. A goat would be someone that demonstrates more ways to win than just on the feet imo, he also fell short of breaking Silva's record in the division, etc. So 9 is respectable and fair

[@GrubKiller436]

I mean if it's about MMA expression, then Demetrious Johnson would be number 1. But it's not. It's about achievements in MMA history. What matters are wins. Doesn't matter how you get the win.

[@caffeinated936]

pereira should be at adesanya's place and he'll likely only rise from there

[@bencarignan2711]

Chael... Champ Champ refers to holding belts in 2 different weight classes. We need to reseeve Chanp Champ Champ fpr the man that manages to win belts in 3 different weight classes. No one has done it yet. If Conor can get the 170 strap, he will be the first champ champ champ.

[@GrubKiller436]

Actually, no. You have to hold them simultaneously to be "Champ Champ" If he want to be Triple Champ, he has to hold three simultaneously.

[@nicholascollins3012]

Conor never defended his title

[@heresy3573]

Dont think that was his goal

[@YvanTDF]

Now we need Uncle Chaels top 15 list

[@brendanmurray1714]

Crazy not to have volk on there

[@Nightmare-d4l]

Cus volk dismantled his brother islam Maybe that was the reason

[@osmannaeemrana]

​@@Nightmare-d4lIslam beat volk and snapped volk's 22 fight win streak. Come back to real life. Why would khabib put someone on list who lost to his friend Islam? Lol

[@Savvage.875]

There’s nobody that can hate chael I love his podcast

[@lawrencehackett6479]

I find it baffling that even till' this day people call d.c a double champ. D.c never actually beat the champion of 205 in jones. He was beat twice by him, then because of jones sniffing gas station d*ck pills the company handed the belt to d.c? Cmon man & call me a casual but even d.c beating stipe the first time doesn't look that impressive at all in hindsight. Not saying d.c was a scrub but I do think because of everything I just said + the time where d.c did the most blatant form of cheating maybe ever in mma with towel-gate..I respect Daniel but I think people Cap heavy when speaking on d.cs career

[@kimjong699]

You’re not wrong. I’ve always thought the same thing about DC at 205 and then the blatant eye pokes to Stipe in the first and then getting schooled in the next 2 fights against him really showed the 1st win was a lot of luck

[@akindtroll28]

He won the undesputed title so he was the champion. By your logic, Oliveira and Islam are not real champions because they didn't beat Khabib. Jan, Jiri, Jamal and Glover are not real champions because they didn't beat Jon. Figueredo and Moreno are not real champions because they didn't beat Cejudo. Kamaru, Hendricks, Lawler, Twood, and Leon are not real champions because they didn't beat GSP. Whittaker, Izzy and Pereira are not real champions because they didn't beat GSP.

[@akindtroll28]

Oh and by your logic Jon isn't the real HW champion because he didn't beat Francis.

[@JT76912]

Daniel earned the belt when he eliminated all the top contenders fair enough if he didn't beat Alex, Anthony Johnson (twice), Volkan Odezmir. But he did so deal with it, and he defended both belts in both divisions, unlike some double champs who win their new title and never defend it (Connor McGregor, Henry Cejudo, GSP).

[@txkingg]

i agree with the usman points for sure

[@akatzzki]

GSP is without a doubt number 1

[@akatzzki]

@@Keltonwiez jones constant steroid use and controversies take him out of contention. DJ is up there but doesn’t have the strength of schedule gsp has.

[@eyethesimian]

This is the most likeable I've found you in a while. :)

[@chiquita683]

If conor doesnt make the list then Khabib isnt. Conor made Khabib

[@nickeversole2452]

Khabib dominated him, doesn't matter about popularity, this is fighting ! Khabib manhandled him like a little bitch

[@vik.1903]

Congratulations on being mentally handicapped

[@osmannaeemrana]

Khabib's son can't be on the list with zero title defenses. Plus he tapped out to his daddy 29-0 undefeated legend khabib.

[@warnermccrary9148]

“Conor won so many world championships he forgot.” Chael he won 2. 3 if you include the interim.

[@orbitx5838]

Khabib is my favourite closely followed by GSP and JJ

[@arthurcastillo-castro8896]

Kazushi!!! Sakubara!!!!!! Can’t believe no one has this guy as one of the “GOATS” Such a dam shame…

[@johnhenderson7904]

Agree

[@Anonymityfan]

I think that the thing holding back DC is thst he never beat Jones and his win over Stipe was very controversial

[@datcrazywhiteboy6205]

The man with the biggest arm/charm in historrrrry Uncle Chael.

Get Khabib on your podcast

[@izakarya4258]

Khabib on Chael last comment: This guy plays games brotha

[@kensheebattousai]

If you follow Chael's logic about Conor being a champ champ champ, then how about Demetrious Johnson and his 12 titles? Do we go champ champ champ champ champ champ champ champ champ champ champ champ?

[@yoniwebner7855]

Crazy how chael fought 3/4 best fighters ever

[@Galactic123]

There's absolutely no shot Khabib would ever give Conor that much respect to put him on his top 15 when he left himself off of it. Because he crushed Conor and made it look easy, and Conor hasn't been the same since.

[@bibbyboi]

I'm a few numbers in and is this going to be a top 26 list? Seems weird to have that many ties and still consider it a top 15 list.

[@fedism]

I feel like Khabib missed out a few fighters. Ben Askren for example.

[@MuhammadHosny0]

bruh

@@MuhammadHosny0I know right

Khabib put Chael with him in a secret goat list 🫣only him and chael

[@leethomas7659]

Just like music taste favorites lists are completely subjective. Numbers tell the story more accurately.
