Forgot to mention Silva was 38 when he first lost to Weidman. All the other fighters listed other than DJ either retired or took multi year layoffs after a bad loss, family death, or controversial win in their early 30s to duck contenders.
I would say jones fell off in his next fight after jones vs Gus 2. He had been in the testing pool for a bit and was going downhill each performance. He did great against gus cause he literally had the picograms
The picograms don’t matter experts said it had not effects on his performance he dominated Smith right after that I think the Santos fight he left his prime
5:09 I beg to differ that Mighty Mouse is facing weaker competition in ONE than in the UFC. Most of the best small fighters come from Asia, but aren't too well-known here in the West. While the UFC has a better roster overall than ONE does, I believe ONE has a better flyweight division.
It’s sad because during the first Weidman fight, silva was still in his prime. He was just toying around. It was almost as if he wanted to lose to Chris weidman and pass the torch on. He knew he could beat all these guys and he’s 40 so wanted to move on with life
I wouldn't really say the opponent quality of DJ dropped, since ONE FC arguably has a greater depth of lighter weight class fighters than UFC. He lost to Adriano then came back after surviving Rodtang and revenge the KO by KO'ing Adriano and then beating him in the trilogy. Your whole DJ take is wrong because you're bias towards the idea of the UFC being levels above ONE in competition.
It wasn't that Jon was not prime he was 33 i think. He simply used wrong gameplans. He literally didn't shot a single takedown on Santos. Striked with him and won. We always say Khabib never striked with strikers and stuff and we knock him for it. Jon does and people shit on him for not dominating when he does that. Same with the next fight barely shot a takedown.
I strongly disagree with Demetrious Johnson. I do think he should be on the list. But I do not think he is fighting lesser competition in one. People should really check out ONE, I think some of their champs could def beat some of the UFC's champs. Some good examples are Rodtang and Adriano Moraes. Moraes is actually the only fighter to ever knock Mighty Mouse out which he returned the favor with his best knockout, personally I think his best performance. If you haven't checked out these fights, their on youtube, and they're worth the watch.
That part about Dimitrious Johnson is definitely a result of ignorance. One Championship isnt on the same level as the ufc but they arguably have a better flyweight devision. DJ ran through (i think) 4 guys to get the titleshot and got caught with a grounded knee by Moraes who had 8 title defenses. After that he beat Rodtang and KOed Moraes with a flying knee. Now his last fight where he beat moraes the second time is probably where he left his prime. He looked good but it was a clinch fight where he looked a little more dependant on his power and generally didnt fight like before
Jones didn’t really leave his prime, he got complacent and bored. He admitted this before. He came back and annihilated Cyril Gane, who is better than both Santos and Reyes. Jones is arguably still in his prime especially after moving to a heavier weight class
Nah he just couldnt deal with a wrestler like chael. Either that or he let chael last that long bc he wanted to win by submission. He completely shat on his opponents his next 4 fights till he got to chris
I don’t think Aldo left his prime as he still had great ws at featherweight and bantamweight. I just think he fought guys who were better in Max and Volk who would go to dominate the division. I think he’s better than Conor and that if they rematches Aldo would win but we can only guess
Gsp Jj Dj Silva Aldo Then arguably comes khabib a at 6 solely because of lw divison caus it is the most talented division. There are more people who have more credentials like dc, stipe,Usman. And more people who have chance to surpass him like volk,cehujo if they do some epic comeback. Also khabib never fought well rounded s tier opponent like the top 5 so we never no.@@haxed_3613
yeah...3 more fights would had cemented atleast in the convo, moveup and fight usman and have 2 title defenses in 170 would had made him goat@@darkclaw1462
Talking out your ass about DJ. The Henry rematch was controvercial. Since then hes only lost once by ko then avenged it twice. Your whole not feeling like he could keep up with the top guys is a lie. People get lit up for stupid takes. The Aldo take is also wrong. After getting kod he went 6-6 four of those losses were against champions. He should have got the shot instead of TJ. He couldve beat Sterling and and become champ.
Lol Neither Alexander Pantoja nor Brandon Moreno are beating Adriano Moraes or Yuya Wakamatsu for that matter. ONE’s lighter weight classes are filled to the brim with killers and heavily underrated. You only say “the opponent quality decreased” because you dont seem to actually watch ONE. DJ has only lost ONE fight in ONE bruv and avenged it TWICE. The Cejudo fight was extremely controversial and to this day most people dont think Cejudo shouldve gotten the Nod.
You missed out on BW GOAT, either Cruz or Aljo. Aljo hasn’t left his prime yet, Cruz is probably the 4 year layoff into the Cejudo fight I don’t think Jones’ prime left after the Santos fight. Jones was 32/33 at the time, literally in his prime. I think it’s just a matter of the next gen of LHWs finally catching up with him. Same for GSP and Hendricks. I think the WWs just caught up with him. That and Hendricks was on steroids 💀. He came back and looked better/more exciting against Bisping I don’t agree with DJ either since Cejudo is a monster, going on a run after that and returning after 3 years and being competitive with Aljo who’s the modern era BW GOAT and giving Merab trouble before gassing. With Aldo I think it’s the same thing. He just ended up fighting top level competition from the next gen after Conor. He was still in his prime age. He rallied back after the Conor loss.
It's actually really funny how he is wrong about every single champion here and you can see signs of them slowing down far before in most cases, literally just chose fights that were losses or close as the turning point of "leaving their prime" room temperature IQ video. Anderson leaving his prime at 38 is hilarious, GSP left his prime after his surgery before the condit fight you can see a clear decline in explosiveness after that point, this guy probably thinks holloway and whittaker are in their primes lmfao
Why in the fuck do people even consider khabib as the goat? Khabib did fuck all in the sport. People always make these videos and say that not all the goats are included in the video but they always include the top 4 goats and khabib aswell. Why not adesanya, Kamaru, Matt hughes or volk? Khabib isn’t even the LW goat let alone P4P king or UFC goat 🤦♂️😤
Poor Aldo was in his physical prime when Conor beat him (only 29 years old!) but yeah the blow his confidence took was way too massive for him to actually make any use of his prime. He became gunshy, he rarely attacked with the same brutality and aggression that he was known for, and the few times he did it was in a very inconsistent fashion, as if his confident could only be back for a few seconds at a time. There's also that even though at 29 years old he was in his physical prime, he had over a decade of camps and battles accumulated in his body (didn't he start fighting at only 17 that guy?). I really hope he gets the respect he deserves one day. Still, I think that he would've always lost to Holloway. Max is an stylistic nightmare for Aldo.
