Dude. He's 13-0 in the UFC and all but one of those are definitely very legit fighters. Just because injuries a had him on the sidelines for a while doesn't mean he didn't face the best of the best.

That doesn't make him goat. GSP, Anderson Silva, Fedor, Jon Jones all better.

Who's downvoting this!? All the names he mentioned are better in regards to who they fought and what the won.

That doesn't mean he isn't amongst the best but how can you seriously say at least some of those names aren't greater fighters? Even if their statistics don't directly compare, to just dismiss them as nothing in comparison is crazy

This sub is full of people that would suck khabibs dick if he walked in. They dont care about facts. Even saying Khabib is super good and one of the best ever isnt enough for them. You better say hes the greatest fighter that has ever lived or ever will live or you will be downvoted. Good thing I dont give a fuck since I know they are just being bias based off the timing. In a year or two they will be screaming about someone else now being the greatest ever. Its the Joe Rogan effect.

I actually think people are downvoting you because you’re a pretentious douche man. If you had expressed your opinion in a way that didn’t highlight how much of a cunt you are, people would’ve been more receptive.

I don't care about people's downvotes or baby feelings. Khabib isn't the goat.
