St-Pierre’s first UFC title run was short: He claimed the welterweight crown in a 2006 rematch with Matt Hughes before Matt Serra took it away in a massive upset less than one year later. That loss, the second one of St-Pierre’s career, also turned out to be the last. After taking the interim title in a trilogy with Hughes, “GSP” went on to unify it against Serra and defend it nine times until his 2013 retirement. His 170-pound reign would have been a strong argument to land him in any “GOAT” conversation, but St-Pierre wasn’t satisfied. In 2017, he ended his retirement by moving up 15 pounds and meeting then-champion Michael Bisping for the middleweight title. He submitted Bisping, thus adding a UFC title in a second division to his list of achievements. With only two, later-avenged losses in a career that includes three separate UFC title conquests, St-Pierre is a no-brainer for this list.
