I'd argue Evan Tanner is the Texas GOAT since he won a belt.

Evan Tanner won a belt, but one that did not represent the best in the world at the time. Nor was it the world MW Lineal Title. There was at least some debate.

Joseph Benavidez has never won a belt, but he has only ever lost to DJ and Cruz, the two all-time greats at their respective divisions. He has dominated in two divisions, otherwise. He has 14 WINS vs TOP 10 RANKED OPPONENTS! That's elite level (DJ has 12, Cruz has 9, Urijah has ~13).

I'd stick to Benavidez over Tanner for Texas. But would like to hear from others.

Russia- Fedor
Oregon -Couture
Florida- Must have someone better then Masvidal

Randy is from Washington. Fyodor is from the Ukraine.

Don't be fooled by Florida, it's actually not much of an MMA hotbed... it just so happens other fighters move there (ATT and Blackzilians are full of transplants).

I don't know if Don Frye was born in Florida or Arizona; need clarification on that one.
 
JoeB was a much better fighter than Tanner. Top 10 alltime in 2 weight classes with a case for top 5 in one.
 
So which are their own sovereign countries?

Do Northern Ireland, Wales, have their own Olympic teams, their own President/Prime minister, etc??

Olympics is a weird one, they compete together in it, BUT that is the exception ... They all have their own separate International Football Teams, plus as I stated compete in the UFC under their own countries Flag/Banner. Sovereignty is complicated in the UK as they do have their own devolved Governments (with First Ministers - basically like our Prime Ministers) and make a lot of our own laws, own education system/curriculum all with a general GCSE/A Level qualification but with our own curriculum, education authorities and examination boards, Scotland and Northern Ireland have their own banks that issue their own Bank Notes (still Sterling but printed by local Banks and usually not accepted in shops/bars in England). However we are also under Westminster through the 'Union', but no one in Scotland or Northern Ireland - Not even Unionists - would ever call the UK a country, Wales is slightly less devolved than the other two with no bank notes and less separate laws, but got a lot more nationalist pride during the European Championships doing better than England. Simply put a combined UK team is very rare in sport (more of a novelty) and only really seen seriously in the Olympics, which helps them collectively win more Medals.

It's going by place of birth. Fyodor was born in the Ukraine.

If the fighter is was raised elsewhere from a young age, it's noted as (r.Location)

The list of countries and territories I got from: https://www.countries-ofthe-world.com/ -- Is that what you meant? What's the problem?
