For everyone calling me “nuts” for putting aldo at 3. To you I say
It’s a goat list not a resume list. Aldo has been on top since he was 22-23 years old and he’s 38 still near the top 10 of one of the hardest divisions in the ufc. Longevity matters. Not everything is just wins and losses when making a goat list.
-thanks for watching
@BunnyMMA I love Aldo being high on the list. People forget, maaaaan.
This is easily the best GOAT video out there, your the only guy to factor in longevity. Great video
Yooo! Lukey with the super thanks. What a legend! Thanks man. People forget man! Longevity matters?l! People so caught up in wins and losses. That’s what we call a resume list. When we’re talking goat. Longevity matters!
My list:
10. Stipe
9. Silva/aldo
8. Aldo/silva
7. Khabib
6. Volk/islam
5. Islam/volk
4. DC
3. Mighty mouse
2. GSP
1. Jones
dc at 4 is crazy
@ DC is underrated, he’s only lost to 2 fighters. I will say max holloway may be top 10 tho looking back at my list
Khabib over FRICKIN royce gracie dude? You CASUAL
@@Aerodynamic999 He lost to the best of the best. DC was never the best
@LighTY-bro please tell me your top 20 at this point im traumatised because of your casual ass
This channel will blow up with this consistency keep it up bro
Thanks man much love 💪
Putting guys like Randy and Fedor was mad respectful man, I like this list! Don’t agree with all the exact placing, but where you put guys made sense to me 👊🏿
Thanks Mann the old heads need respect too 💯
Fr! I hate when people talk about the best of “all time” and start talking about guys like Silva, Khabib, Mighty mouse, etc. and forget abt the guys like Couture , Fedor , Werdum and others before the modern era
Well done, Bunny. Giving the old guard respect! Great takes overall.
Top 3 aldo is crazy
It's bold but not crazy. Aldo's achievements have been forgotten by most fans. Great resume.
Good list. Recent too which is what's needed, a lot of people in goat lists put a stipe win in all time wins but the fact you put in the factor of stipe being old when he fought Jon makes me impressed with the detail and effort good job. I would put Holloway over Conor tbh though.
Thank you man! Much appreciated!
So, yea lets remove a 42 yr old Stipe from Jons notable wins despite Jon himself was 37 when he fought him. But its fine putting a 42 yr old Mark Coleman as a notable win for a 30 yr old Fedor and a 44 yr old Silva as a notable win for a 30 yr old Izzy. Definitely a good effort job.
@IVIN-JOHN Anderson silva is a good win no matter the time period he still looked good after his prime even against guys like Bisping. Coleman is a good win becasue he was still good at that age too relatively he didn't have a hard falloff. And jon being 37 has nothing to do with it Alex is the same age and destroying guys in the first and second round in championship fights against people in their primes. Jon fought a stipe who literally would get hit with a jab and stop throwing all together and back away it was clearly a stipe who didn't wanna be there whilst all of the people you named DID want to be there and did show up in fight condition. I'm not gonna reply anymore because I'm not arguing over comment sections on TH-cam.
@@thecourier7751 Silva is a good win? Lmao. From 2013 till 2019 when Silva faced Izzy, he had 5 losses and 1 win. After his loss to Izzy, he went on to lose 2 more times. So, thats a total of 8 losses and 1 win. You are biased af if you think this win against 44 yr old Silva is a good one. Winning against the 1st ever heavyweight champion especially when he is way out of prime with an age gap of 12 is good win for you. Thats all needed to be said about your logic. I know you are not gonna reply anymore cause your argument was stupid as hell.
Stipe beating Dc twice, Francis, jds and werdum is better than any of Silvas wins
Video idea idk if you have done it but: current champs vs previous champs
Maybe soon 👀👀
@ we are gonna need that soon…
Genuinely a great list man but you got caught up in the recency bias by including the most overrated fighter ever and excluded the most underrated… seriously look at these resumes that use your own stated criteria…
Alex Pereira has had an all time great run against decent comp but overall he hasn’t done much and he’s had favorable match ups… we all know it’s only a matter of time before he gets completely rag dolled when he goes against his first grappling opponent like Khamzat, Hernedez, Ankalaev, Jones, Almeida, Blaydes, DDP, Belal, Shavkat, Usman, Glover, Whitaker, Garry, Aspinall, Spivac, Krylov
Level of comp
(based on form during fight. Not peak)
S tier wins: 0
A tier wins: 2 Jan and Izzy
(also lost to Izzy and robbed Jan in the decision)
B tier wins:2 Jiri and Strickland
C tier wins:2 Jamahl and Roundtree
D tier wins:1 Bruno Silva
Who?????: 5
Total: 12
Defenses: 3 (4 title fight wins)
Longevity: 3 years in UFC
Matt Hughes. Dominant for a decade. Only lost to complete studs. Has beat like half of GSPs relevant opponents, has like twice as many wins as him and he finished him in his prime.So how the hell does everyone have GSP top 2 yet some Hughes isn’t top 20?? I get there’s alot of filler on his record and that the fighters get better with time like all sports but it’s not like he fought 40 year before GSP. Hughes started 3 years before and retired 2 years before GSP.
Level of comp
(based on form during fight. Not peak)
S tier wins:1 GSP
(Lost GSP rematch)
A tier wins: 2 Sherk, BJ,
(Lost one BJ rematch in prime)
B tier wins: 6 Newton, Sakarai, Lytle, Serra, Renzo, Trigg
C tier wins: 4 Gono, Almeida, Trigg, Riggs
D tier wins: 1 Royce, Verissimo, Castillo, Haseman,
Who?????: 31
Total: 45
Defenses: 7 (9 title fight wins)
Longevity: 12 years in UFC
Honestly good take man you bring up a great point
@ thanks man, I know that was a freaking mouthful, but I’ve had that on my chest for a while 😂 and it seems like people just keep disrespecting Matt Hughes while putting brand new guys like, Merab, Periera, Touporia on their goat lists despite them only having a few good wins. Matt Hughes has a bunch and his losses are super forgivable.
Would put Islam among top 5 especially if he beats Arman he will be an undisputed divisional GOAT
He has both quality and quantity on his resume
Yes sir we gonna find out Saturday night brotha so tune in
One of the best lists I've seen bar Aldo at 3. Longevity matters, but it's not everything, and I think you're rating his longevity and e.g his current UFC placing both too highly in general, and especially too highly compared to other fighters who had similar longevity and many notable wins, but didn't get the same bump in the rankings as Aldo got here.
Also GSP > Jones, I think it's silly to disregard someone completely for PEDs, but you have to factor it in, it's equally ridiculous to not keep it into consideration, with that in mind, I don't think Jones should be no. 1. You're also counting his HW champ status which I don't think even should be considered, it doesn't add anything to his legacy, I don't think even considering his champ status as valid is correct, he didn't beat the champ (Ngannou) to achieve champ status, and he hasn't beaten the no. 1 contender in a defense, thus he has no claim to the belt. In my opinion, his legacy ends at LHW, which is a great legacy, but tarnished by PEDs, has at minimum one loss against Reyes, potentially two with Gustafsson, definitely a top placing in the GOAT conversation, but not number 1.
Watching with one hand while playing blues clues in the background
Ngl that’s a w
Great list! However I find it very hard to put Mighty Mouse at 5. Being the first champion at the flyweight division and dominating it for 5 years with 11 title defenses, it is hard to accumulate legendary wins when he was the one stopping flyweights from becoming great. I value longevity of being number 1 over longevity being top 15 in your division, so I have DJ at 2 all time.
I get what you’re saying. Don’t mind it! Thanks for watching man
I Love volk but imo you swap islam and volks position and this list is goated
Top 20 MMA fighters of all time IMO
1. Jones
2. GSP
3. DJ
4. VOLK
5. Islam
6. Aldo
7. Silva
8. Khabib
9. Miocic
10. DC
11. Holloway
12. Fedor
13. Usman
14. Cruz
15. Pereira
16. Topuria
17. McGregor
18. Coutore
19. Olivera
20. Izzy
BOY WHY YOU PUT VOLK > ISLAM BOYY🗣🗣🗣
@@Brudda9000 holloway x3, yair, ortega, tkz, aldo, chad mendes
As I was listening I kept saying he should be ranked higher. As I got through the list I was thinking you can’t move this guy down. As far as Fedor goes, he was a beast but he lost to mediocre fighters. Good job overall.
Thanks for the Video ❤
W vid (I haven’t watched it yet) also bunny the type of guy to say jones not the goat than put him number 1 on his goat list lmao
Lmao right. Gotta love the logic
Jones should really have 3 losses: Matt Hamil and Anthony Smith for elbow and knee to face to a grounded opponent and Reyes 48-47
He should have 1 loss…
Nah, only 1, counting disqualifications when he was dominating is overhating
@ losing to breaking the rules is a lose
Interesting list W
Thanks man 💯
Dustin Poirier is more of a legendary win than Conor for Khabjb
Dustin not a champion
Conor was a champion in 2 weight classes.
@@BunnyMMA
At the time, Conor already had over a year of layoff from the mayweather match when facing Khabib plus Dustin remains the top of his division with more impressive wins and 2x wins over mcgregor that aged better
@@BunnyMMA
Plus we’re speaking strictly of lightweight division so 2x double champ doesn’t favor mcgregor much considering Conor only beat, Nate Diaz, Eddie Alvarez, and washed cerrone. Dustin literally fought and beat everyone except for champs in his division
Great video unc 👏
Thanks champ
Im not gonna lie this is not a good list but i respect you for some of your pick
Thanks champ
If you beat someone twice how can you not be better than them I just don’t understand how he’s better than max holloway when he knocked out prime Aldo twice
Longevity. That’s how. Aldo’s been on top since like 2009 and had 7 title defenses. Also was wec champ and defended. Still too 15 bantamweight in 2025. Losing to a guy doesn’t put you above him in the goat list. If that were the case Matt Hughes would be over gsp
@@BunnyMMA u do know that Gsp finished Matt Hughes twice
@@BunnyMMAthat's stupid, aldo got dominated 2x which proved who was better. And also the score between the two is 2-0
Solid list but I would honestly trade Conor for Ngannou.
They both have 14 fights in the UFC but Conor has 4 losses and finished in 3 of them (technically 4 but can’t really count his leg snapping imo). Ngannou also avenged his loss against Stipe while Conor only avenged his loss to Nate which some view as a controversial decision. Ngannou actually defended the title which is something McGregor hasn’t done and his notable wins are: Stipe, Cain, Overeem, Gane, Curtis, JDS, Andre so he also has more wins over former champs as well as having more finishes in the UFC.
Honestly w. I don’t mind ngannou being top 20
aldo acc has 9 including the wec ones since wec was pretty much the light version of the ufc
Damnnn that’s wild
great video bunny🙏💯(i know it before watching it)
You’re the goat 🐐🐐
Royce Gracie is the god father of ufc wtf bro
I’m so happy you uploaded I thought I was going to have to watch leftlame but then I realised I ain’t that desperate 😂
Lmao
The thing is Jon jones is a professional ducker and 2 he uses drugs to fight. He cant be the GOAT.
GSP also ducked Whittaker when he was the interim champ. He was scared to fight the likes of Whittaker and Romero.
You have Cejudo in your top 20 all time but don’t count it as legendary win for DJ?
Cejudo wasn’t in prime
is it rly notabel to beat a 21/20 year old Max Holloway
Michael johnson shouldnt be a notable win for a goat, very hit and miss journeyman. I mostly agree with the list but not with all the placements
Fair enough. I can see that argument
Let’s go! GOAT list time! ❤
FOR YOU FREAKING GUYS!
Imo, there is difference between being a goat and boat. Goat contenders should have many championship accomplishments, their contributions to the sport, etc. They can be very high even with a lot of losses. For example, Randy Courtoure. Boat contenders should have very good resume and record. It should be judged based on the quality of opponents they faced, their win loss ratio and their overall skills as an mma fighter. A fighter can be high on a boat list even though they havent become a champion like Dustin Poirer.
@@IVIN-JOHN “best “ is talking about skill only your resume of wins is def a factor in being great
@@Amrgoated Not at all. Then whats the point of having champions at each division. If accomplishing that doesnt mean anything, then whats the point of its existence at all? In every sport, goat is determined by not only their influence outside the sport but also influence outside as well.
@@IVIN-JOHN it’s simple the goat goes on you can’t hold on to a “goat title” for something you did in the 90s it’s 2025 Jon jones eventually will get dethroned and the person that dethroned him will be dethroned it’s simple it’s a cycle for a sport so young you guys gotta let it move on
@@AmrgoatedThats what you dont get. The thing you say defines the best fighter of all time. Ofcourse, the best fighter of all time will only come in future. But greatness differs from it. There is a reason why most people consider Ali as the boxing Goat and not Floyd.
@ I just don’t see it that way
aldo at 3 might be the worst take of all time
You’re right he should be 2 💯💯
@ shouldn’t be top 5 😭🙏
Why is Usman this low tho
@@nish_smokes_mma 13th? That’s an amazing spot for him bunny has a video on why Usman is over rated go watch it
Aldo, Cejudo, Izzy, Khabib and BJ Penn gotta be the 5 most overrated fighters all time.
no ped list where would you put Jon?
Not on the list lol
No way are half the “notable wins” Jon has are actually notable. Half of them were ancient or overrated. He struggled against Anthony smith. He lost to Dominic Reyes. His victories are just names after their primes. Nothing more. His only legit wins are shogun and DC but there is a good chance that he was juicing even then. Oh yeah, that’s right, he got caught juicing. Multiple times.
Lmao you’re based af ngl.
🐐❤️ :)
💪💪
Also at 3 is insane
It’s not this man has been at the top of the sport for over 20 years people like you are so obsessed over wins and losses it’s a goat list not a resume list
@@Amrgoated he is not top 5
@LighTY- yes he is lil bro his resume is great he was dominant only 7 losses in 20 years as a fighter and 7 title defenses and 2 time champ
@@Amrgoated No fighter with 7 losses is in the top .
@LighTY- 7 losses isn’t alot ….. Specially for a 20 year career he was number 1 for 11.5 years
His loss against McGregor was a fluke Conor ducked him after as well
He lost to Max first time but in the 2nd fight that wasent prime Aldo
When he lost to Volk he was not in his prime but he was still good vs a prime Volk can’t really blame him and 34 years old and down a weight class he losses to prime yan and that’s it
Alex and Conor shouldn’t be here
Who would you put instead?
@@BunnyMMALiddell, Edgar, TJ, Aljo, Wanderlei, Rampage, Hughes, Penn, Hendo, Shogun, Dustin, Big Nog (little Nog probably ahead of Alex too), Rashad, Machida, Cain, Figgy, Yan, Bader, etc.
aldo over volk is CRAAAZZZYYYY aldo over dc over islam is absurd aldo gotta be10 -15 range he lost all of his all time rivals in his divison come on man we done with the 90s
Not crazy. Volk been here for 10 minutes. Aldo been here since like 2009. Longevity matters. People don’t value it enough, has volk been on top since he was 23? No. Sure he’s a better featherweight, but all time. I say aldo.
Aldo been on top for over 20 years man I understand volk over him but Islam over him is absurd Islam has been at the top for 2 years now Aldo for 20 lmao that’s a resume list not a goat list
W list u added in longevity. Which is undervalued nowadays. All these goat listers all they put is who beat who and title defense resume. Next thing u know some fighters on the list fell off hard
EXACTLY! Why does no one include longevity! There is something to be said about being on top for 15+ years. You don’t see it anymore. People be hating. It’s why I have Aldo over volk. LONGEVITY
@ facts 🔥💯
if bunny mma drops a video you gotta watch
Appreciate it man!
Aldo😂😂
Adesanya 🫢
Other than that a decent list
People shit on a 37 yr old Jon for beating a 42 yr old Stipe but those same people ignore the fact that a 30 yr old Fedor fought a 42 yr old Mark Coleman not just once but twice ( Fedor fought Mark at age 28 also). 30 yr old Izzy beat a 44 yr old Silva, but yea lets ignore that also. Double standard at its best. So, many inconstancy through out the video. A 41 yr old DC is legendery win for 38 yr old Stipe. Almost the same case as Jones vs Stipe. Next time, keep the same parameters for criticising all fighters and not just for the ones you hate.
cause Stipe got brutally koed in his last fight and had a long lay off working as a fireman
@LighTY- DC also had a KO loss before that fight with Stipe again.
@@IVIN-JOHN bro what it was Stipe that koed him
@LighTY- the situation remains the same.
W Aldo glaze
It’s much needed 💯
🔥 🐰 🔥
🔥🔥🐐🐐
Ngl I love your vids but this is ain't it
W for being honest. It’s my honest opinion. I did hours of research for this list. A lot of people disagree because I factor in longevity as others look at “wins” and nothing else. Either way thanks for watching
Conor severely lacks in longevity and title defenses. Alvarez is overrated cuz of a win over Gaethje. His last 3 wins before fighting for a title were all extremely controversial, 2 of them i thought he clearly lost. Idk how good that win is. Holloway at that time was a puppy who was coming off a loss and before that won an extremely controversial fight against Leonard Garcia.
And honestly DC had to wait for Jones to leave, got a title shot coming off a loss, and deliberately eye poked Stipe numerous times so badly Stipe had to undergo surgery to see again
The same Alvarez destroyed Justin in the next fight.
Fedor under Kamaru 😩
Yes sirrrrr
holy shit this list is ass
Lmaooo I knew it was coming. It’s subjective my guy. Everyone will agree or disagree. I’m gonna have people on the video saying great list. And some people as yourself saying ass list. Either way thank you for watching
nah man islam above khabib
come on
khabib is way better than islam
islams best wins are a 45er a washed dustin that was getting ragdolled by bsd before he gassed the fight before
and oliveira cant say anything about that
But Silva too low Volk and also too high
Top 2 is perfect tho
Islam resume is better than khabibs be for real lmao
@@silva4331 nah
Islam has more finishes
Longer win streak
Better comp beat
Khabib
Undefeated and dominance.
I pick islam
@@BunnyMMA
Having More Finishes doesnt Matter and they are pretty close with Islam 17/26 and khabib 19/29 and they have same amount of finishes in title fights
Khabib has a longer winstreak but Islams winstreak in the ufc is only 1 fight longer
and i don't even think Islam beat better competition
Iaquinta
Trujillo> Dober
Healy> Moises
Prime RDA >>>>>> Dan Hooker
Prime Micheal Johnson >>>> Bobby Green
Barbosa Volkanovski volks a great win a very great win but remember he's a featherweight
Prime Gaethje > Volkanovski 2
Poirier khabib fought >>> Poirier now
And Khabib beat prime gaethje
Prime RDA is as good of a win as prime Charles
I think khabib beat a prime dustin who was never held down before this
and prime gatehje and Mcgregor who are better wins than volk because volks a featherweight
@vrarvideogaming that “45er” was the best fighter in the world lmao
khabib not top 10
Fair enough 💯💯
I think Aldo can’t be above Volk, and I’d have max somewhere in the top 10 but W
Thanks champ
L list askar mozharov is not #1
Facts man im failing…
