    If he beats Miocic which previous UFC champ would you rank ahead of him? He would go down in history as the only 3-time HW champ, he would have 3 wins over prime top tier ATG HWs and would be only one fight from tying the alltime ufc title wins record despite being injured so often.

    No previous UFC champ. I'd rank Fedor above him though and maybe Nog.

    If he beats Miocic and defends against Werdum I'd probably have him number 1 then.

    Right now I'd say it's more likely Miocic is gonna be goat than Cain.

    Yeah I'm just narrowing my scope strictly to UFC. If he beats Micioc and defends a couple more times vs Overeem and Werdum it would be hard to keep him out of the #1 spot. I don't think he has the ability to stay healthy long enough to make it happen though.

    btw when I said most title wins I meant at HW not overall.

    If DC doesnt hang them up, he knows he has to move back up

    Cormier was a monster at HW. He could either bow out now on what's already an ATG career, or make one last shot for Greatness by taking on Miocic

    If DC wins he goes down as one of the GOAT HWs

    If Stipe defeats both Cain and DC, he's the UFC GOAT HW....a win over Jones would put him into that argument

    In terms of UFC it's clearly between JDS, Cain and Miocic right now.
