The world of combat sports is full of debates. Many of them are still ongoing because there are endless topics. Amongst the greatest of these debates, MMA-related ones can be counted on top. This debate hides behind a category since the question remains, ‘who is the best heavyweight fighter of all time?’ The question in itself is pretty conflicting and so is the answer. This is because it cannot be answered without a certain bias in mind and is highly subjective. Apart from the clear stats, there is not much to verify when it comes to an argument like this.
