Stipe has only beaten one fighter on the entire UFC roster

Blaydes/Pavlovich winner is getting shafted here but at least Stipe is 4-2 in the five years leading up to this fight with Jones if it happens this summer and that would include two wins over DC and a win over Ngannou.

When Pena got her title shot vs Nunes she was 2-2 in the five years leading up to that title fight and had a one fight win streak going over Sara McMann who herself had a one fight win streak over Lina Lansberg.

For comparison, Makhachev was 7-0 in the five years leading up to his title shot vs Charles and Volkanovski was 9-0 in the five years leading up to his champ vs champ title fight vs Makhachev.

How many Jones beat? How long has Jones been out before winning the title in unequivocal fashion?

lol. The greatest heavyweight of all time ain’t worthy as well? Haters will always find something to make it appear as if their hated object is objectively unworthy, as dumb as their “finding” may be.

Wrong. Title fights are about hype for the challenger among the public. Challengers create hype by being active and winning. Stipe is neither active nor winning. The last time the fans saw him he was KOed by Ngannou and that was two years ago.

When have fans ever wanted to see a fighter coming off a brutal loss two years ago be granted a title shot after they turn 40?

Stipe had a great run but very few people consider him the greatest HW of all time.

I already contradicted what you wrote with the Jones example. You can open your argument with a resounding “wrong” but at least address the argument . Very few people coonsider Miocicc greatest HW of all time!? How did you come up with that!?

Womens bantamweight is an entirely different situation. Its a dead division and there are no interesting title fights. Heavyweight has actual contenders on win streaks. They should be letting these guys fight for the title.

WMMA belongs in its own promotion. Call that shit, W-UFC for all I care just quit making the men’s cards suck more than they already do.

I like the sound of W-UFC.

Yup they are stinking up the cards with their boring decisions …

Or if they really want to be ‘WOKE’ do intergender fights hebhehe.

I’m not a woman beatter by any means but, I’d watch the women get knocked out all day long

In the UFC? He’s absolutely the best UFC HW ever. I’m not even sure for who else you could even try to make a case?

You’re including a loss in a grappling match? Lol. Don’t pull a muscle reaching.

No no dum dum, if u look closely I didn’t put a marker against it

yea but the UFC will bill it as Jones vs the greatest HW fighter ever…instead of the dude that got KO’d by francis last time he fought

lol. How did I miss that clear distinction?!

I personally hate how Tapology includes grappling and boxing now. I use Wikipedia the most now. Sherdog is the best database but the website sucks ass.

I don’t know why Sherdog hasn’t updated the interface of their records etc.
Wiki is clean and precise.

I find Tapology the most up to date, especially with fighter that don’t have wiki pages

He’s only been in title fights for 8 years despite losing his belt twice by brutal knockout… goes to show how pathetic heavyweight MMA is

From a fan’s perspective, Stipe’s career is frustrating.

And only fought 5 different people in that whole time.
