Johnny Hendricks was easily top 5 pfp at his peak as well at 170. Whataburger became a problem later in his career but when he was on, he was damn near unbeatable
Yeah pantoja isn’t too small, especially if merab wins the belt, if merab loses it to umar pantoja is still big enough to cause problems, man is a savage, I’d love to see him go for double champ, even against Sean, they have the beef etc and cejudo seems to think pantoja was beating him
Not biased or anything but I could see Islam not only jumping to welterweight, but I could also see him jump all the way to middleweight, yes he’s gonna look like dwarf but this guy is skilled asf
Middleweight is a stretch. He struggled against a full camp 145er. The size difference and and strength difference would be too much. Dricus would get the most ridiculous looking TKO ever
Honestly I disagree with your take on the welterweight jump being super difficult. Gilbert Burns and Masvidal went from Journeymen at lightweight to title challengers at 170. BJ Penn gave gsp one of his toughest fights in the first one and Matt Serra beat GSP after moving up from lightweight as well (you could argue it was a fluke but still). RDA and Pettis Also had some success moving up and they were way past their primes when they did move up.
He came into the Jan fight less than 200 lbs. He's huge compared to the average person, but he's not even the most jacked at 185. He's just really tall.
Hear me out y’all: I know woodley was a monster and his wrestling is a problem, I think Prime Conor matches up with him well Assuming this is after the Alvarez fight, Conor is eating him alive on the feet, and I think his defensive wrestling would hold up against woodley
I’m sorry but 170 is not all you’re hyping it up to be. Leon was never that good, bro got an RNG KO on usman, then cheated his way into a lame decision then did nothing against Colby who’s beyond washed. Usman won beat 4 fighters One being masvidal who was not good to begin with, and the remaining 3 being B tier fighters. Islam would’ve whooped Leon/kamaru/tyron Khabib does the same, and Olivera would’ve probably beat Leon, and possibly usman since his wrestling isn’t really submission oriented.
I honestly think Alex is going to pull it off. I truly believe he’s a once in a lifetime talent
Still not giving Belal his respect is just foolish now
These unique video ideas is a good way to be distinct from other MMA TH-camrs. Love the content
Harry legitimately makes my day better with these videos 🐐
Preciate all the love g

So many guys in that welterweight division after gsp’s run are so disrespected
Put some respect on Harry's name! Guys always pumping out goated content
Thanks bro
The jump from Max Holloway to Jalin Turner is massive. And that's just a 10lbs difference
Jalin turner taller than khamzat aswell
Jalin is the ceo of weight bullying
155-170 and 170-185 are the hardest

@@BenT800 Who did he struggle with? not disagreeing with you, I just want to know

Bj Penn also was champ there before being stripped
10:18 Izzy wasn't that big? That guy was huuuuuuge as champ. 6'3 200+ lbs, and jacked too

@@ZolPsyko I've seen him at well over 200 pound on various clips. And maybe he's not yoel Romero level jacked but he's not skinny
Hot take: Conor could have been triple champ
The 170!champ at the time was Tyron woodly, I think Conor would have beat him
Lmao not a chance in the world, Conor would’ve been brutally wrestled and taken to a decision
Even hotter take I think Conor has a better chance vs Belal rn
@@AtabulletHe really forgot Woodley was getting compared to gsp at one point. Woodley is huge too.

@@shameyboismith3505agreed
another banger by harry
I've seen BJ Penn fight Lyota Machida, and it was a close fight.
hw is gonna be difficult now because Aspinal is lokely the best hw champ so far.
Islam can get triple champ
Lightweight to Middleweight?
@@factuallysomename yes
@@factuallysomename lighter man skill
@@MrWorldwide-s7sreal
No way he gets triple champ but he can definitly be double champ
Lost my respect for the channel, the amount of clickbait on the thumbnail is astronomical
Bait used to be believable 😴
Alexandre Pantoja could be a triple champ (obvious rage bait
He's the best most exciting underrated champ ever and deserves to be praised in every video (completely joking, he's the exact opposite)
Imagine islam across 155, 165 and 175.
