If you have Pettis as the GOAT LW you are a prisoner of the moment.
Remember this guy? I know it's been a while but he was kinda good at LW!

Cain and JDS would obliterate a prime Fedor, it wouldn't even be close, probably doesn't last a minute. Doesn't mean Fedor wasn't great for his time, but it's a different sport with a different level of athlete.

because he was exposed in the UFC? Fedor didn't finish him either.
a 40yearold Mark Hunt .... is a better fighter now than he was then and it's pretty obvious.
as far as how a JDS/Fedor fight would go, Junior would the athletic advantage but he's too predictable and not well-rouned enough in the practiced use of his skills so Fedor, with his fine tactical mind would stand a much better chance vs. him than Cain. Probably still loses but if he can survive being spiked on his head and almost being decapitated by Fujita, he could probably last awhile vs. Junior.
I think Cain would overwhelm him like he does everybody. Fedor would have the same puncher's chance that Junior has & as long as Cain didn't have an injured knee Fedor would look like he did after the Bigfoot fight or similar to how Junior looked in the last 2 Cain fights.

And as a side note that is a big reason why Randy was so special. 3 time UFC champ in a division he was far too small for.
