-11 title defenses in the Ufc (Most in history) -ONE Championship Gran Prix champion -Current ONE Flyweight Champion (135 pounds) -Dominated his division for nearly 6 years. -Two weight class world champion across two major global promotions I don't think people give Mighty Mouse the credit he deserves in favor of his contemporaries, GSP and Jon Jones. Truth of the matter is that he has performed (and excelled) at the highest of levels time and time again. With no blemishes or controversies, he should be in everyone's top 3, hands down.

Absolutely he’s in the conversation, his body of work in UFC was enough for that, since leaving UFC he’s won a belt at 135, officially making him a 2 belt world champion, he then went on to beat one of the greatest strikers in Rodtang. A generational talent. It was a mixed rules fight, round one was striking. Most people don’t make it out of the first round with Rodtang. Life long, Muay Thai fighters contending for belts get stopped. He is easily top 5. Pound for pound skillset and athleticism, he is the GOAT

Even though the second round was easy work, that Rodtang fight may be my favorite DJ fight because it showed that not only is DJ a wrestler, but he was able to go a competítive round with the GOAT Muay Thai artist.

DJ is the best we have seen in our lifetimes. He has proven it time and time again. Idc what anyone says, ONE has stronger fighters because they cover everywhere that isn't the U.S. look at time and time again where UFC fighters come to ONE and get totally washed. DJ made the jump, started from the bottom of the division rather than the top where he belonged, he even took on Rodtang in that super fight where the whole first round was Muay Thai rules and still won that shit. The man is almost 40 and has never been so on top of his game. DJ is the best, and he will continue to be the best.

I've been arguing this for years. He is the GOAT. It isn't even a debate for me. When you look at his CONSISTENCY for the past almost 15 years and the absolute insane top tier names he has put down and done it in highlight reel fashion it's just a no brainer. The list of guys he has beaten and number of title defenses is staggering. He is the unfortunate recipient of happening to be a smaller guy, which unfairly carries the stigma of not being as valued as much as the heavier guys. That is why people don't give him his dues as much as they should, and it's sad.

I think another thing that needs to be considered is not just the number of title defenses but how those defenses were won. GSP was amazing, but he had something like 7 title defenses in a row that he won by decision. He dominated in those fights, but he stopped even attempting to finish fights literally years before he retired. Demetrius doesn't have as clean a record, but he finishes or attempts to finish all of his opponents. That should carry some weight in the conversation.

DLH is more talked about because he was the first 6-division champion and former gold medalist, who accomplished it without catch weights and draining (unlike a later 8-division champion did).

Why is it so hard to understand that a smaller guy doesn't get hit as hard and has more power-to-weight. Cardio is easier for smaller fighters. As good as Demetrius Johnson is, he's in a much easier game than a Welterweight, for example.

Okay, and? Nothing you said is an argument against him being the GOAT. Fighters will tell you that the lighter weight classes are more stacked. Casual fans don't understand that because they are looking for crazy highlight knockouts.

Unfortunately, an active champion can deplete his entire division's contenders. Then fans start criticizing the quality of the flyweights. They say things like, "He should get a title in another weight class." Might Mouse is probably my choice for greatest. I just wish he got paid more. It is a joke how little he got paid during his reign.

Uncle Chael I’m your age. I grew up watching all sporting events you did. If by chance you read this you need to go re watch the Trinidad Vs Delahoya fight. I consider you an expert in the pro fighting world and their is no way you can honestly say Felix kicked Oscars ass. No way. Just go re watch the fight and honestly tell us again if Felix won that fight. Let alone kick his ass .

No heavyweight in the UFC has had a longer winning streak after becoming champion than three. Compare that to Fedor, who beat six (!) UFC heavyweight champions and who after winning the PRIDE championship continued on to win his next 18 fights. I can't imagine we will ever see that again. Maybe someone knows who the next best fighter is at beating UFC heavyweight champions. It just gets harder the bigger they are in heavier classes to stay on top for a long period of time compared to the lighter weight classes. After Fedor the PRIDE championship he didn't lose for over seven years while facing not just MMA/UFC champions but among others also World Youth sambo Champion Arlowski, olympian wrestler Coleman, bronze medalist in World IBJJF Jiu-Jitsu Championship (black belt) Nogueira and K-1 World Grand Prix kickboxing champion Cro cop.

In my mind there are only two real goat contenders, on opposite sides of weight and style, it’s either Fedor or Demetrious Johnson. Johnson is the most technically precise fighter in the sport’s history. A lot of that comes from his size, he has a dexterity advantage due to simply having less body to deal with while setting up crazy moves. In the pure technique NOBODY steps up to Mighty Mouse. Fedor on the other hand is an entirely type of fighter. He is also a very sharp fighter on the technical side, Sambo ain’t no joke, but it’s his raw strength and toughness that makes him untouchable. He hits harder, and swallows up hits easier, and that makes getting over on him basically just luck. He’s built like a keg, is as strong as a keg, but isn’t clunky like the outdated oversized heavies of the freakshow days. I can’t decide between the two. They represent the platonic idea of two different types.
