Jon Jones has been the light heavyweight champion on three different occasions but has since relinquished his title to move up to the heavyweight division. He will be returning to the Octagon soon to take on Francis Ngannou or Stipe Miocic looking to better his impressive 26-1 record.

Anderson Silva

Brazilian fighter Anderson Silva will always be an all-time great of the sport. The former middleweight champion holds the longest title reign in UFC history at 2,457 days which included 16 successive defences until his retirement in 2020.

Ronda Rousey

It’s almost six years since we last saw Ronda Rousey in the Octagon after leaving the sport following two defeats in succession after her 12 straight wins, but her legacy lives on. She was a trailblazer for women in the UFC and has also been incredibly successful in the WWE.
