UFC has given birth to many legends in the MMA community, which include the likes of Conor McGregor, Jon Jones, Kamaru Usman, and Georges St-Pierre.

Through their hard work and dedication, these fighters have amassed achievements that will go down in history. However, no fighter can compete forever and has to retire after a certain time and a new generation takes their place.

New fighters take the place of the previous champion, and the cycle continues. This has led to people and analysts comparing and putting fighters of different timelines together to see who is the greatest fighter of all time.

Kevin Lee thinks GSP is the G.O.A.T.

In a recent appearance on ‘The Schmozone Podcast’ hosted by Dave Schmulenson and Helen Yee, former UFC welterweight, Kevin Lee was asked a similar question. Helen initiated the GSP vs Kamaru Usman debate, asking Lee who he believes is the greatest welterweight amongst the two.

Kevin quickly answered, “It’s GSP all the way. Let’s just get that out there, GSP hands down. I don’t even think it’s possible for him (Kamaru) to beat him.”

‘The Motown Phenom’ added, “If you (Kamaru) go 205 you fight Jon jones, you fight Jan Blachowicz, you fight Adesanya or something all right now we can talk” but until then he picks GSP for the win. The 29-year-old also stated that it is very unfair to compare the new generation with the old.

GSP has won belts in the welterweight and middleweight divisions. Not only that, he has defended his welterweight title, a whopping nine consecutive times.

However, GSP is retired while Kamaru is still competing. No one knows what he will further achieve in his amazing career.
