Most wins over former champions?

[Thuckey]

Who do you think has the most wins over former champions in PRIDE/WEC/UFC?

My guess is Overeem. He has defeated:


Arlovski
JDS
Mir
Lesnar
Werdum
Belfort

So that's a solid 6. Name some other dudes that beat a lot of ex-champs

 

[Arqueto]

Jon Jones.

 

[ilfirin]

Fedor comes to mind.

 

[Degen Gambler]

Jones beat

Hashad
Rampage
Machida
SHogun
Vitor
Chael P

 

[JustOnce]

Jones beat

Hashad
Rampage
Machida
SHogun

Chael P

Did you really count Chael P a champion of anything

 

[Touch of Death]

Must be Dan Henderson.

Wand
Fedor
Misaki (Grand Prix winner)
Belfort
Franklin
Bisping
Bustamante
Nogueira
Newton
Shogun (twice)

That's 11 wins.

Bustamante remember had a choke against Lindland and Lindland tapped but Big John saw it but didn't enforce it.
But he tapped him again the next round.

It's because he has fought so many great fighters and has beaten a good percentage of them (until recently)
