    JDS has a bit to go before he is considered the best p4p of all time, he would need to be champ for a good few years yet, unless you just ment best heavyweight of all time LP, then I would agree that he is 2-3 wins away from that

    Yeah just the greatest HW ever, somebody would have to put in a very good run to over take Anderson Silva and GSP in that league. Personally I still think Dan Henderson is the best P4P fighter ever, Fedor isn't the best ever and won't be by the time Silva, GSP, possibly Aldo and JDS retires.

    Why? Simply because Fedor went 10 years without losing?

    During that run Fedor only beat 3 top ten HWs in a row once - Timmy, AA and Rogers.

    If JDS beats Cain that will be 4 legit top ten HWs beaten in a row.

    If he adds Cormier and Reem to the list then he is clear HW GOAT.

    Jones is now the clear great LHW of all time simply based on who he has beaten.

    And I don't think Mir is anywhere near a title shot.

    * Cain

    * Reem

    * Cormier

    * Werdum - Has looked great since joining the UFC

    I also think Stipe Miocic is ahead of Mir.

    And Josh Barnett could fly up the UFC rankings and jump ahead of Mir.

    he battered a top form nog and cro cop, went undefeated, wouldv smashed any HW in his era. The UFC belt hasnt been held for any length of time by any champ, Fedor held his for ages in PRIDE whilst competing against the cream of the crop

    People have real short memories

    It's not just the fact he won so many and who he beat it's how he won.

    He smashed Nog on the ground and he out kickboxed Mirko being the most obvious.

    That's why he was GOAT.

    Once Cro Cop found his range he took it to the ground.

    He didn't want much of Nog's ground game when Nog wasn't carrying a back injury.

    Nog/ Cro Cop or Carwin/Cain/Mir + Cain/Reem/Cormier.
