If we’re looking at January to December - the calendar year as a whole - which MMA fighter in history managed to pack in the most impressive set of victories into that twelve month span?
We’re not looking for fighters like Kevin Holland or Neil Magny who went 5-0 against mid-tier opposition.
No, this is about elite wins.
Guys like Cain Velasquez and Khabib Nurmagomedov - who generally fought once or maybe twice a year - will, of course, suffer under this criteria.
But with that out of the way, let’s just get into it, run through ten candidates, narrow it down to a top-3, and then eventually decide which fighter had the greatest year in MMA history.

Figueiredo in 2020 had: -Benavidez KO -Benavidez MURDER -Perez SUB -Moreno FOTY Actually won fighter of the year and brought life into a division everyone saw as dead before him and Moreno pulled up He should be on the list and all those fights were not only bangers but had a belt on the line
@yellowrain2062
@yellowrain2062 9 месяцев назад
yooo 100% should've been on the list. I'm still shocked he did all that in a single year. I still remember him having that one month turnaround against moreno right after running through perez. And he arguably won the Moreno fight as well

@ocanaldojj 9 месяцев назад
@@yellowrain2062 he should have won 4-1 but two judges saw 3-2 and that groin shot made it a draw, i still think it was 4-1 but it brought us 4 cool fights (the weight cut issue in the 2nd and swollen eye in the 4th made it way less entertaining than it could have been compared to the 1st and 3rd but great fights nonetheless)

Anyone saying anything but Jon Jones in 2011 is crazy. The dude beat just about anyone and everyone that he could beat in that calendar year. Beat an up-and-coming contender in Bader, completely destroyed Shogun in the single most one sided championship fight that there has even been, defeated Rampage in a masterclass, taking little to no damage and becoming the first guy to submit him in the UFC and then there was a little bit of trouble with Machida but choking him out the way that he did after suffering the first bit of real adversity in his career was something else. That run of Jones' was pure violence on a level that we really haven't seen since. He made it look easy in there against the elite of his division, a division at that point that was considered the best in the history of the organization and was still considered to be the best, because all but one of those guys he had beat during that run were either former or current champions. He beat the best of the best and made it look easy.

@TienNguyen-fj1jq
@TienNguyen-fj1jq 9 месяцев назад
True, that was scary and a very definitive way for someone to win a championship but I still feel like it is lacking when compared to Jones vs. Shogun, simply because of how old Joseph was heading into that fight and the fact that he had already lost to Figgy in the previous fight. Just my opinion though. @@RemyKingKen

@@TienNguyen-fj1jq some of those wins of Jon were against fighters whose prime years were spent in Pride getting soccer kicked and stomped in their head Figueiredo did this: -Benavidez by KO -Benavidez by murder -Perez rd1 SUB -Moreno FOTY 21 days after the Perez fight all for belts, 3 finishes, 4 fights in which he won more rounds, 1 fighter we all feared for his life and a year that saw him fight more often than any other champion in years

Yo I could say so much about every one of these fighters, I agree too I mean Bones Jones the fuckin GOAT for a reason and the rest have so many arguments for them also I could list so many, but straight up its crazy and I gotta say remember when everyone was tryna get rousey and cyborg the two baddest bitches in the worlds eyes to fight? Then think about about how Amanda just comes thru and wipes the fuckin canvas with both of them in seconds, back to back I think? An undisputed machine that woman is I just had that thought occur to me while watching this it’s crazy how the whole scene can change in a blink.

Islam has to be lower if you keep Volk at first. If we're acting as if Volk won the fight vs. Islam then Islam just has a notable win over Olivera. If we're treating the fight as a loss for Volk then he shouldn't be number 1 IMO.

@@etlonjonhyeah i love volk and actually prefer him over islam. But islam had a great 2022-2023, oliveria and volk (not even going to include bobby green) is enough to put him in that number 1 spot. I agree that volk should get credit for making it a very competitive fight but putting him below volk when he literally beat him and also the best lightweight on the planet just 4 months prior is just disrespectful

@etlonjonh 9 месяцев назад
@@ThePillowNation I agree. I'm a big Volk fan but I'm an even bigger fan of the sport. Watching live I personally feel like Volk won, I'm of the opinion though that it doesn't matter what the fans think it matters what the history books will say. I don't think Volk necessarily had a better year than Islam, I'm just saying if we're acting like Islam lost that fight he doesn't deserve the #2 spot. I personally think Islam deserves credit for that win and Volk should fall to 2nd or 3rd.
