Ya, I was shocked that he didn't even make an honorable mention. Suffered what should have been a career ending injury right after winning the title, then somehow worked his way back to an interim title anyways. You have to wonder what he could have done without losing all those years out of his prime.

Goes to show that when Jiri and Hill vacated the belt immediately after getting injured it wasn't just honourable and respectful - these guys allowed their fellow fighters to pursue greatness. Unlike the Duck formerly known as the Goat and, of course, Tapper McChicken.

[@StDrake]

Fr, he was one of my favorite fighters, but I think he never really had the mindset for fighting. For example, in TUF and the Weidmann fight, his opponent got absolutely wrecked and it shook him to the core. I feel like he's just too nice to hurt people tbh. Such a shame.

Brock Lesnar entering MMA training in 2002 and learning striking, submission grappling, etc, to go along with his size, strength, and wrestling background, then working his way up to the UFC could have been something special. Kurt Angle is another massive "what if" in that regard.

[@xanferra]

If Brock had entered MMA in 2002 rather than Pro Wresting, it almost certainly would have been in Pride rather than the UFC.

[@champ1159]

Brock famously hated being hit, i doubt he'd be that much skilled than he was when we saw him. However, he would've been more dominant had he fought in an earlier HW division

[@SteefPip]

I hated Brock when he came into the league, I had to learn to respect his contribution later but at the time I absolutely hated what and who he brought to the sport. Sure he boosted viewership like no one before but many of them were mouth breathing wresting fans who boo'd when people wrestled. I definitely learned empathy towards the guy though, I suffered the same condition as he did and it nearly killed me.

[@CYMotorsport]

2:35 this is a tad misleading to say cejudo had double champ status “with defenses in both divisions” that’s always worth objecting to, albeit lightly. Henry vacated his flyweight title after a successful defense over Dillishaw who came down for his own double champ attempt. While he held flyweight yes he did earn the vacated bantamweight strap. But before defended that one, he dropped that flyweight belt 80days prior. So by the time he was defending bantam, he wasn’t actually double champ. It would be incredibly special if a champion simultaneously defended two belts - or even defended their second belt while still holding the first - ala Daniel Cormier. Henry didn’t do that. It’s relevant bc he could burn his flyweight ships so to speak. He had no obligation to keep his body anything close to flyweight and could build his body back for good to bantamweight and focus there for his defenses.

[@cokegaming4830]

he didn't say he defended both while being champion in both weight classes. He means that henry has a title defense in both weight classes

[@lokig02]

Great list, I think Rumble Johnson could’ve done a lot more if it wasn’t for the illness and untimely death. Micheal chandler also wasted some good years waiting for mcgregor

[@aleksanderb.5254]

So, two points: Cruz fought DJ in late 2011/early 2012 and his next fight was in September 2014 against Mizukagi - this is no 4 years. Lesnar fought Carwin in July 2010 and after that fought Cain in October 2010 - it's not a 15 months gap.

[@dasnutnock6408]

Thing with Lesnar is his kickboxing was never likely to improve enough to be a serious long-term titleholder. Even without the colon surgery, he never really demonstrated the capacity to learn effective striking. There's plenty of effective wrestlers who learned to strike, but Brock never looked like he'd be one.

[@TheElbowMerchant]

Particularly when it came to striking defense. He didn't like getting hit, which fair enough, because getting hit by world-class heavyweights was a terrifying proposition, but he couldn't stay calm in the face of incoming strikes. He'd usually duck his head, turn away, even run away from the pocket on occasion, and of course, panic wrestle. He learned how to throw a punch, but not really effectively avoid them. Credit where it's due, what he was able to accomplish with relatively minimal training (outside of wrestling) was pretty amazing, as he was getting by with that pedigree, freak athleticism, and obvious PED usage.

[@dasnutnock6408]

@@TheElbowMerchant Nobody likes getting hit in the face, but if you want to be an MMA prizefighter, you’ll eventually have to learn to deal with it the right way. Look at how he shrank after Overeem caught him a few times, and the less said about his 720 when Cain socked him, the better. What he achieved cannot be denied, but he was never a serious long-term prospect, certainly not once the division started to grow.

[@lonewander6772]

​​@@dasnutnock6408 Overeem hit him where he had surgery. He took bombs from Carwin and survived. He may not like getting hit, but he seem to be able to at least take them and not get knocked out. Heck Mir caught him with a jumping knee in the 2nd fight. We never know if he will ever develop an ability to brush off getting hit or defensive striking because his career was cut short.

They really gotta make a movie about tony Ferguson, who ever directed fox catcher have that dude direct it. I don’t know what actor could play him though. But his story in the sport is so fucking tragic. As a fan Tony during his run was one of the highest highs in the sport then Contrast that with his losing streak which is the lowest low in the sport. And what’s really dark about it is that mental toughness that has gotten him through these lows is what also allowing these lows to continue and get worse.
