Is Leon Edwards the next fighter to challenge Georges St-Pierre's status as the 170-pound G.O.A.T.?

Quick Summary

Leon Edwards proved that his victory over Kamaru Usman wasn't a fluke when he retained his welterweight title at UFC 286.

But with a 7-year unbeaten streak, could he now have his sights set on challenging Georges St-Pierre as the greatest welterweight of all time?

It's too early to call Leon Edwards' championship reign an "era" but he has the tenure to challenge GSP should he continue his winning ways.
