    Few observations from last night.

    1) It was such a complete performance completely nullifying Borg whilst beating him down.

    2) That suplex to armbar transition is probably the best transition I've seen since Sakuraba landed THAT Kimura.

    3) Cleaning out his division is the best thing for him regardless of what Dana says.

    4) Now might be the best time for him to rematch Cruz.

    5) I still don't think he's amongst the top 3 ATG.

    He's pretty much a Flyweight GSP without the good dance partners. He's clearly an ATG and one of the most skilled fighters in MMA - but all of this talk about P4P and being the GOAT is laughable and should be thrown to the backburner... Moving up to Bantamweight and unseating Garbrandt and avenging the Cruz loss, beating Dillashaw and then he has an argument for being the greatest.

    lol if he did move up to 135.. and beat all 3 of those he would be the clear ATG in my opinion.. however I think he loses to all 3... but say he doesbeat all 3 then yes hes the ATG . would put him above silva. above jones above gsp.
