JRE MMA Show #185 with Ethyn Ewing · Aired Sep 2, 2026
Claim summary · not a verbatim quotation
Alexander Volkanovski is the greatest featherweight of all time.
The finding
What the evidence shows
This is a real opinion held by respected voices in MMA, so it is not baseless, but it presents a genuinely contested debate as settled fact. Volkanovski himself has said he considers Jose Aldo the featherweight GOAT because of how long Aldo held the title, so framing it as simply true skips over a real counter-argument.
