@mr.nobody2515Ай бұрын
ELO doesn’t mean who is the GOAT accurately, it’s only showing someone’s performance in specific circumstances in the sport. If you rate ufc fighters using the chess elo system you have to know that elo doesn’t really show who is the best in history, as Bobby Fischer was way above his opposition in chess having only an 2780 elo peak, while without a doubt being considered third best player in history, and then Magnus is the best by elo with 2882 peak, while Kasparov had insane 2851 for his time, when it was even harder to get such rating. So Khabibs elo can’t really effectively rate how great he was, his division was very evenly rated with fighter losing to each other, and not having any single dominant fighter besides him same as with Fischer, it doesn’t mean that Khabibs opposition was weaker, but that the division was more even than now. Another example: English premier league and la liga - Historically many English teams won the league, and every season (besides modern City domination) was a very unpredictable outcome. But La liga had only 3 serious winners, two of which had won it most of the time, so by elo rating we could probably say that Man city or Man United is better than Barca and Real? Only cause of they had “harder opposition”? But then historically we see that Spanish teams actually dominated English teams in the Champions League and UEL… So Elo is a very subjective thing to measure how great someone was
@weignerleigner3037Ай бұрын
Yeah I feel like with elo you have to take into consideration everyone else competing. To get a high elo you need to beat high elo and like with Fischer he was 2790 but I don’t think there was a single other player who was 2700 or above. He would have to basically never lose and play more and more games and even then his rise would be super incremental. With mma I feel like elo doesn’t work there’s too many subjective variables like wear and tear, age, etc. like with Jon jones he beat a lot of great legends but were they still great when he fought them? They were old and towards the end of their careers. Plus the parameters like nowadays guys fight once a year or even two years if they are champs. In chess they wouldn’t let that fly if you are that inactive they might not even rank you.
@mr.nobody2515Ай бұрын
Agree with you, I just wanted to clarify that, cause to think that Belal is greater than Khabib by elo is just ridiculous lol, if he stayed longer I honestly don’t know if anyone could have stopped him. Jones got majority of those points fighting a veterans so it’s also quite subjective
@moefuneralКүн бұрын
i think that downplays jon jones’ opponents a bit. they were still great, but by modern standards they would mostly be middleweights fighting a modern lightweight. though that would also affect gsp since he beat a few lightweights (serra, penn, etc) in reality its very difficult to compare different eras. what’s impressive about jj and gsp is how dominant they were through multiple generations of fighters.

Great video! this video shows the current level of each fighter which is useful for real time ranking but not useful for the GOAT discussion, for example Anderson Silva is arguably the GOAT but it's not reflected in this ranking because this counts all the losses he took after he exited his prime. For the GOAT debate to be settled you need to rank each fighter according to the peak elo rating they reached. Subscribed! you should make another video ranking fighters according to their peak elo rating to see who's the Greatest Of All Time. Cant wait to see it!
@HPloveCraftsCat13522 ай бұрын
The GOAT discussion rightfully includes any given fighters entire career, you can't just cherry pick one aspect the make it more favorable any fighter of choice, it's on Anderson for not retiring when he should have and his resume suffered as a result, while fighters like Khabib, GSP and Mighty Mouse (and soon to be Jon Jones probably) retired as champions and coming of wins. Talking about a fighters peak it's a different discussion, the GOAT debate takes in *ALL* aspects of a fighters career, highs and lows etc...

Amazing video! Some suggestions if you want to work on a v2: - Add some depreciation mechanic to adjust for inactivity. - Maybe use age or time in the ufc (or both) as weights for K to adjust for where in their career a fighter is. - Maybe you can also use the amount of fighters in the weightclass at the time of the bout as weights as well for K. To penalize less competitive divisions. - You could also have a sort of buffer calculation for a fighters first fight. Or have two parallel elos one that starts from 1000 and another that starts from the elo of the debutant's first rival. And use an average of both until they converge. Loved the content if any of this sounds interesting and you would like to chat about it, hit me up.

Fight Matrix has had an Elo system modified for MMA specifically for like 20 years. Before Jones fought Gane, GSP was ridiculously ahead of everyone in the system. By like over 500 points. Mostly because guys Matt Hughes, Jake Shields, Jon Fitch and Carlos Condit had super high ELO ratings themselves and that boosted his by extension. After the Gane fight, Jon is pretty close to him. Wonder if the Stipe fight willl push him over.

Would love to see a more tuned elo system in the future. One idea is if a fighter is on a downward trajectory (falling out of prime or over 35yo) maybe use derivatives to guess their current (lower) elo, this way if they get beaten by, for example Dricus, Dricus won't gain too many elo and neither would the loser lose too many elo.
