Quality of wins = did you beat X fighter before Lucas started watching mma 4 years ago. If you beat Renan Barao when he was #3 p4p that win means nothing cause Lucas never saw it so it basically didn't happen. If you beat Umar, a dude who has one ranked win, you are now the GOAT of your weightclass and one win away from surpassing Jon Jones

Lucas always calling whoever the current champ is the GOAT, there’s still debate if Merab beat Umar, Yan was coming off multiple loses when Merab beat him, Umar has 1 top ranked win, Moraes was on the decline, this would be his first title defence, he doesn’t have many finishes, this is the first time he’s fighting a good grappler in a while, his wins could end up ageing like milk, there’s still debate about it
@edavedral7881Сағат бұрын
"Petr Yan comming off multiple losses" he lost a 48-47 decision to Aljo and then arguably beating O'Malley. I personally have scored that fight for him but I get it that someone could score it for Sean. With that being said he lost to elite levels of competition and those fights were really close. We also can see that he wasn't washed in any way since he went on to get a win streak against Song Yadong and Figgy. So that makes Merab's Yan win really impressive especially since he was the only one to beat him in a dominant fashion. Everyone else had a really really close fight with him. Altough Umar only beat Sandhagen still that's an extremely good win especially when he dominated him. He showcased his skillset there and that he is a stylistic nightmare for Merab, since he is a great grappler and also can keep him at the distance with kicks. So just this makes this win great. And also even if Umar loses to Merab, I believe that Umar will be a champ at some point since he's so young and talented so this win will probably age like wine. Also saying that Merab didn't fight a good grappler in a while is insane. In his last fight he beat Cejudo who is an olympian. And yeah it's faur that wrestling in MMA is different, but still he's a great grappler. Yan was also a really good grappler, we could even see that in the Figgy fight when Yan was taking him down and controlling him at times.

Flukas can we get a video on how the fall of the Byzantine empire led to Holloway KO’ing Gaethje and retroactively moving volk up the GOAT list? 🙏
@ngonimandizha7738Сағат бұрын
I can explain that to you brother! The fall of Constantinople led Mehmet II to conquer the final remains of the Roman Empire in 1453 CE. This 2000 year old Empire was taken away just like that, and the Ottoman Empire spreading led to the rise of Islam. This rise of Islam has led to many Muslim fighters being at the top of sports today including MMA, such as Islam, Belal and very soon Umar. Now how does this relate to Holloway KOing Justin? Well Gaethje didn’t want to take too much time off after KOing Dustin back at 291, so he offered to fight Holloway for the BMF in hopes that if he’d win so he could fight Islam right after. Now Justin is Mexican-German from his Mother and Father respectively, and the Germans have always needed to conquer someone smaller first to take on the world. Justin was hoping that Holloway would be like his 1939 Poland, where he could start his WW2 conquest of taking down world class fighters with the Blessed. This conquest by Justin would ideally end with defeating a Muslim champion/conquerer such as Islam Machachev. The issue is that Holloway being Hawaiian means he’s American, so this revolve of Justin to overthrow their divisions Muslim champion led him to miss the historical facts on the United States helping the West defeat Germany back in WW2. The American pride of fighters can KO any threat their way even at the last second such as Holloway did to Justin, as the September 11th attacks have only strengthened our resolve as Americans to fight back against the spread of Terrorism in the name of Islam. We can never forget the events of 9-11 or Fall of Constantinople no matter how powerful our Muslim adversaries become, and this is what inevitably led to Holloway KOing Justin. Your last question can easily be answered by the fact that Volk having three wins over Holloway means anything that the Blessed does Blesses Volks legacy as well. My apologies for the length, but I hope this helped!!

this is in response to Bedtime saying Merab would still be behind Aljo in the BW GOAT convo with a win, no doubt. I'm with you, beat the same guys as Aljo way more dominantly, and didnt get KOD by OMalley or Moraes You forgot to mention his title defences had 2 split decisions. The Yan rematch were he actually won the title not from a dq was still a split decision, so was the Cejudo fight.

I agree, Merab's wins are actually better. Even though I don't think you can look back at the lighter guys from WEC the same way we look back at the middleweights etc of that era. There was no lighter man division in the UFC, and all of those smaller guys in WEC were levels above the average bigger guys in the ufc at that time. They were competent in scrambles, high level striking and wrestling/defence.

UFC has always been extremely inconsistent with giving out title fights.

Anyway he has a 2-1 decision against a declining CCC beat moraes who was on a 3 fight losing streak and had a shit performance against Aldo in 22 Pro fights he has 5 finishes and TWO in the UFC Cruz beating Faber, Tj, “mighty mouse” coming back not in his prime and still beating Munhoz is better than merab resume not to mention Aljo?? CCC, “Tj” , Yan, Sandhagen and then there is Yan who has beat aljo, Aldo, Cory, Song Yadong, Figgy and some like to say O’Malley. Those are all better wins than merab resume JUST STOP IT YOU CANT FORCE IT… And you are already contradicting yourself at 13:23 you said he’s the bw goat and then at 19:53 you say your not saying he’s the bw goat
