Comments to this post are insane. People just dogmatically believe 'newer athlete better' but without actually watching fights from both generations. Like Ryan said the top end of MMA hasn't wholesale gotten better. GSP and Aldo TDD really hasn't been surpassed, and its why you

Pound for pound most ridiculous, impressive and flukey knockout of all time

To win without fighting is the highest victory

One thing that makes Khabib's single leg on the cage so consistent is that he's conscious that one of the best ways to defend it is to fight his grip So he'll often secure wrist control and pin the wrist to the cage, then quickly lock hands & lift before they can strip his hands

Gears turning in Kadyrov’s head whether he should ice this dude for doing the fake knee and shoulder strike.

Ranked heavyweights and this was 100% correct and worked for him.

The way people repeat the "Newer better" line reinforces why people often get MMA wrong. Athletes always get better isn't a universal law, it's the result of systems and institutions that work to constantly improve them.

Kickboxing or MMA, Smith doesn't get enough respect. Greatest pre-K-1 HW by far, all of his kickboxing defeats save for the first at 22 and the last at 44 against ATGs. MMA pioneer, first striker to win a major title, arguably the greatest kickboxer to give MMA a serious attempt.

The sheer number of likes that this obvious advertisement for Pavel Durov’s dumb little hats is getting shows just how braindead many of Khabib’s fans are. Why the hell would Khabib Nurmagomedov shill Telegram as “the best messaging app in the world?” Khabib didn’t write this.

At least Khamzat tried the clueless gimmick when he rugged his fans. Ali shat out a chatgpt response this time and called it a day

Ali…

Javier Mendez - so Khabib point 165 of “Father’s Plan” as he told me, his best friend, is to do a rug pull. Yes he told me personally on his deathbed via Zoom call. Trust the plan Khabib and make sure I get get a cut. I’ll put it into my tuna factory.

GSP dropped him and hit him with about half a dozen unanswered elbows 3 weeks earlier and the UFC effectively said "we're our own commission in Shanghai and we think you're good"
