    Tony got wobbled more but went on a great run winning so not that straight forward.
    Nate only got stopped by Thompson and Masvidal. Tony it was Chandler and Gaethje and yes Tony has had a bad recent run but both men were durable in their respective primes Tony was the better fighter due to his unconventional style and having that great run.

    Wrong....we are talking prime Tony wrecks Nate and I like both equally. Nate was never elite Tony was beating the rest of the division other than Khabib and that fight not happening is a thread in itself.

    Yet still went on a 12 win fight streak against many notable names in a deep division.
    So again you are completely clueless.....

    Nate for both. Although I think Tony was the better overall fighter even if he was perhaps a little overrated due to people really wanting to believe he was the guy to beat Khabib.

    Tony was the way better fighter but I'd lean Nate on chin, cardio can be debatable as Tony's pace was fantastic as well Nates

    Don`t know but both of them got caught flush way to often, that`s why Fergie got rocked so much, silly tactics.

    Prime 4 prime

    Tony > Diaz as a fighter and cardio.

    Chin is equal imo.

    What has evolution have to do with gas tank and chin?
    I'll give you a clue it doesn't...
    Also you're talking as if they fought decades apart....they didn't
    Tony is a year older yet started 4 years later...
    So your whole post is complete nonsense and has been completely destroyed...

    Yeah but you are still wrong..
    Tony's run was pretty solid....very few have achieved the same....
