Given the lack of events thanks to COVID-19, there’s been a lot of time for me and my fellow MMA journalists/analysts to go over many greatest ever lists. It’s always hard to do so when comparing different generations. Even though there are less generations to cross compare than there are in other sports, it still doesn’t feel right to compare Royce Gracie to the likes of GSP, even if they fought in the same weight class… roughly. So, how about breaking down the last decade, especially since we’re entering a new one as it is.
In many divisions, it’s easy to pick the best fighter in every division.
