Effective UFC fighters that only used one style

I was thinking about Sean Strickland and how, on the surface, this is a guy who only really stands and boxes, but is incredibly effective at it.

Who are some other fighters that rarely, if ever, veer from their respective styles?

Khabib- Semi-effective on the feet, but rarely chose to stand. Would always be looking for a takedown

Overeem- It was very rare to see the Reem shoot for a takedown

Ryan Hall, Royce Gracie, Kron Gracie- Exclusive jiu jitsu
 
Kron Gracie hasn't been an effective UFC fighter since he subbed Alex Caceres on his debut.
 
Please feed Alex to Chimaev. The wolf is so hungry and he has passport to smash now!
 
I think Rani Yahya is the best example.

With 30 fights under the UFC/WEC banners and quite a few name scalps and has been ranked on and off since 2007.

He has ran with his one way ticket for 18 years at the highest levels.
 
Sean spams front-kicks

If done right, it kills boxers. And Sean boxes plenty always putting a hand in your face

Sean has hacked the sport of mma
