Voted GSP because he's pretty much the prototype on which the modern fighter is based on, but I won't be mad if Fedor wins, he deserves it too
GOAT icon in every sense of the word.

GOAT of everything. GOAT.
or perhaps you are wrong and Fedor in circles that you are not privy too, is considered in the same esteem as Mohamad Ali or Michael Johnson.
no wait , there is no perhaps, you are just wrong
We don't actually think GSP is a "household name" do we? There are only two of those associated with the UFC, Conor and Ronda. 3 if you count Rogan.
Not sure what your saying but maybe English is not your first language.
Fedor was big while Pride was. Pride was never as big globally as UFC was shortly after Pride folded.
In hardcore MMA circles Fedor is iconic but he's by no means transcendent of the sport.
Meanwhile GSP and Silva are
People who don't even watch UFC or didn't start watching until recently know who they are
Fedor is that guy that was awesome before MMA was mainstream

90% of the people in here that say they saw a Pride FC card in real time.. Are lying.
Then when you ask. Who is the most “Iconic”?
Straight up..
The ENTIRE MMA community knows that GSP is/was the best mma fighter ever.
Nobody cared about Pride, SF, or WEC until Zuffa bought them all out.
If you did not actually fight in the UFC. Then your legacy isn’t worth a damn.
I-C-O-N-I-C.
By definition.. Does that not answer the question of who moved the sport forward, more?

My wife is a Tito fan. It delights me to no end showing her what dummy he is / Sherdog threads.I have two buddies that are die hard Tito fans and i still troll them IRL to this day. lol I just sent my buddy that documentary about Lee Murray KOing Tito in the streets of London just for a laugh. Anywhoo One of them went to Vegas for the Tito vs Bader card and when Tito won he just texted "Tito" all the way from Vegas. It was the best day of his life so he got his little moment in on me. lol
Not surprising the GOAT is now officially the greatest icon in human history.
A truly unbelievable human being.

A great human being that doesn't get a temper tantrum seeing people kiss in public
No ambush and headstomping on public kissers, no fondling with dog privates, no pearl necklaces, no pink hair
Just a great human being that once cared "too much" for his younger brother
