  1. If Dustin beats Islam:

    Both Champions

    Khabib best wins:
    Dustin
    Justin
    Conor
    Barboza
    Laquinta
    Johnson

    Dustin best wins:
    Justin
    Conor 2x
    Chandler
    BSD
    Hooker
    Holloway 2x
    Pettis
    Miller
    Green
    Makachev

    In my books, if Dustin wins, he's the GOAT.

  2. I thought Aljo is good with fair analysis, Ohmyy!! What kind of salty takes he has!! Am not even a Lhabib fan but his takes sounds like its coming from a weird place and not an objective stand. Argument for argument sake to fit bias confirmation.

  3. Tbh the guys that were champions in WEC before the UFC picked up the lighter weight classes in specific should be looked at as UFC champions too, even though they technically weren't in the promotion because Aldo and Cruz were the inaugural UFC champs without having to actually win a vacant title first the lineage of their belts prior to the UFC basically serves as a lineal BW and FW championship for MMA, would give guys like Faber the rub he always came up shy on getting and redefine the way people look at fighter's like Mike Brown who's known more for coaching these days than anything else

  4. Let's be real, if MJ played ball in the same era Bron is rn he'd still be better because they'd just create all the fake accolades they do for every NBA player these days, it be like "MICHAEL JORDAN THE FIRST PLAYER EVER TO GET 63 POINTS, 4 REBOUNDS, 3 STEALS, 1 ASSIST AND 1 BLOCK IN A GAME OMG WOW" like they be doing whenever someone goes off and the media tries to be like "You know the only players to ever score that exact stat line are you and Kareem Abdul Jabbar" as if that's some indication this guys on Kareem's level all of a sudden 😂

  5. DP would literally never be considered the GOAT of 155 with a win at this point over Islam, wouldn't even say it means he's better than Khabib or even like BJ or Frankie on that list, all it would do is tarnish Islam's legacy and have people talking about how he was "never really as good as or the next coming of Khabib"

  6. Taking everything away from Islams wins is KARAAAZY, coming from a champion too ! All I hear is excuses from aljo. Imagine saying that about his run.

    Vs Petr Yan 1 – Won by luck
    Vs Petr yan 2 – wasn’t the same Yan ( fought with a diff style) ( uncharacteristic of him tryna go for the kill in every shot)
    Aljo 3/37 TD

    Vs Injured TJ
    Vs Cejudo a Retiree and went to split decision where alot of people had it for Cejudo. Even Demetrious Johnson. Merab did what aljo couldn’t in 3.

    Got booed in his hometown vs Cejudo 🤦🏽‍♂️

    Got knocked out easily by a guy who jumped 10 spots

    See How easy it easy to downplay your career Aljo. Doesn’t feel right does it? Show some sincerity and stop hating just to hate.

  8. Khabib most overrated fighter. He has a split decision against the only grappler he fought and he tapped to Dos Anjos. He doesn’t even have that many finishes and he couldn’t finish Al after having a full training camp and Al taking the fight in short notice. Charles has more finishes in the UFC than Khabib has fights in the UFC. Khabib had the same defenses as Benson Henderson.

  9. Sheesh aljo doesn’t like these dagestanis lol
    How would arman or gamrot have beat him if they haven’t fought for the title yet meaning they would’ve never even fought him

  10. You’re talking about islams resume and asterisks next to his wins but you got some of the biggest ones next to yours. Split decision wins in your big fights and let’s not mention the way you “won” the title

  11. DP literally got knocked out cold against Gaethje one fight ago. Absolutely love DP but neither his record nor his performance against Khabib helps him get close to Khabib.
    Its like saying that Donald Cowboy is the greatest welterweight given his schedule and longevity.

    A fighter cannot be so delusional in his takes unless he is saying these voluntarily to get fan engagement on his page and get famous. Sorry, You're no Chael brother.

  12. AlJO always wanted to be like Khabib and be compared to Khabib, but he is deluded. He’s now where near the realm of Khabib. Islam losing to Dustin, doesn’t make Dustin better than Khabib. This is lowkey hater take. Calm down son

  13. Diamonds got better wins amd resume the khabib now! Islam already has the record for most consecutive wins at LW 🤷🏼‍♂️ KHABIB DIDNT DO …THAT… MUCH. should have stayed and built legacy

  14. That was the same Charles what are u saying. Let’s stop beating around the bush nd stop with the cope. Its time to realize, Charles shits himself against heavy pressure wrestlers. I love Charles, but it’s true.

  15. Khabib is the man but he never really challenged himself to WW. We are in an era of double champ. Its easy to do super weight cuts and weight bully LWs. Lets see you do that to WWs. Its cowardice not to move up in weight.

    Also……

    Aljo is right that Khabib retired when the next generation of LWs were coming around.
