Daniel Cormier says Khabib is greater than Muhammad Ali

Genuine question, who’s in your top 5 Eastern Euro fighters?

Fedor

Wlad Klitschko

Oleksander Usyk

Khabib

Valentina S

Honorable mention:

Cro Cop, Arlovski, GGG, Loma, Vitali Klitschko, Schlemenko, Sergei K and Igor, Bivol.

If Loma can keep winning big fights at 135 then he’ll move up, same with Bivol.

All fair. I wanted to see where you put Loma. I’d have him in my top 5 pretty easily, but that list is solid. Lots of talent from that region so I wasn’t sure if I was missing anybody.

Shoutout to Igor. Far from top 5, but he should make any honorable mention list

Unfortunately injuries. Fighting in weight classes above his range has kept him off my list. If it was by pure talent then hell yes he would be top 5 easily and I love Loma.

I have 3 guys above everyone else as the greatest fighters of all. I base this on the quality of opponents they faced and beat.

Using this same standard for Amanda, she’d rank super low on my list.

I take into consideration the weakness of her division(s) at the time, look at her best wins and to me, I’m not impressed when we are comparing her with people with much better resume’s.

i would questioning why even gsp is there? lol at nunes, and no reason for khabib either

WTF kind of list mixes boxing and MMA? If you are mixing other disciplines, where are guys like Samart or Karelin? Even if it is just boxing and MMA, what a shit list.

We don’t know DC’s criteria here.

Best to him may = most invincible, guy he’s seen wreck everyone in training, guy who is leaving behind the best legacy post career training new fighters.

Nunes as well, maybe he is putting her above female boxers because he doesn’t respect boxers as fighters considering female boxers would more than likely get mauled by MMA fighters in a real fight. Or maybe because she is more definitively the GOAT in her sport than any female boxers are.

Don’t agree with GSP at all he shouldn’t be on the list.

Your mistake is in thinking Cormier does this to promote himself lol. Cormier is just genuinely stupid lmao

The list states “top 5 fighters of all time

Boxing isn’t fighting. It’s one single form of combat…. So my top 5 wouldn’t even have a single boxer in it

Jon Jones
Anderson Silva
GSP
Demetrious Johnson
Khabib Nurmagomedov

There’s not a single boxer at any of their weights that are beating them in a real fight

How the hell can you NOT have GSP on the list yet have Khabib on it? I think Khabib is great but both in their prime GSP wins, GSP has faced WAY, WAY better competition and its not even debatable, Khabib ONLY has an undefeated record over GSP but its EASY to see why… look at his first 20 sonething fights and that says it all, I can think of any fighter off the top of my head who has that many complete cans on their record. Thats MMA’s version of a boxing record.

Now i suppose i will hear matt serra or jonny Hendricks, well serra got lucky any fighter can get caught but GSP proved who the better fighter was. GSP beat hendricks in a very ose figjt, if you beleive Hendricks won and that was a robbery then look no further than khabibs fight against Tibau because that was a worse decision by far

He only had 3 title defenses and only beat 2 world champs and 2 interim champs. Very weak resume

He may have been the best fighter ever but he didn’t prove it
