Satronaden Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 In your opinion who do you think is the LHW GOAT and why? I believe Shogun Rua is the LHW GOAT because he has beaten so many top fighters from the LHW division and has accomplished so much. MMA Record: 20-5 Age: 29 Height: 6"1 Weight: 205 lbs Reach: 76" Top Wins Lyoto Machida Rampage Jackson Chuck Liddell Forrest Griffin Alistair Overeem 2X Ricardo Arona Minotoro Nogueira Mark Coleman Kevin Randleman Accomplishments UFC Light Heavyweight Champion PRIDE Middleweight Grand Prix Champion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waikru Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 Current LHW GOAT is Tito Ortiz: Has the record for most title defences and the longest title reign. Future LHW GOAT: Jon Jones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor_Obviously Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 Time will never end. So maybe we should just say former and current greatest LHW. Which would be Shogun and Jones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doctor_Obviously Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 I don't think Jones 1 title defence constitutes him being the greatest of all time. Give it time. I'd say finishing off two fighters that are considered 2 of the greatest of all time gives him a great start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashdude26 Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 Chuck Liddell, shame to see how many people have turnt to haters just because he was knocked out in his last few fights. I guess its true your only as good as your last fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
claxp94 Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 Chuck Liddell. Shame people forgot about the Iceman. Rua is #2 ATM. He can be #1 if he regains the belt. Jones could be #1 if he continues his regin and has 3-4 more defenses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
