UFC has seen many iconic fighters grace the octagon and leave behind a fantastic legacy. These fighters carry a special prestige, mainly because of their insane resume and unbeaten streak. Names like Jon Jones, Khabib Nurmagomedov, Georges St Pierre, and more, spring to the mind as the most dominant champions and fighters.

Among the trio, only Jones is still competing at the highest level and hasn’t lost a fight (the one loss was a debatable disqualification). His unbeaten streak stretches across different eras over the past 2 decades. Apart from all the trouble he has faced outside the octagon, his domination in the light-heavyweight division is unrivaled.
