**I said TUF WINNERS in the Title, not what i meant, Just most accomplished TUF contestants Ever in the UFC. Sorry about that**
Was wondering what you think the top 5 most accomplished TUF contestants/winners of all time are?
Based on what they accomplished fighting in the UFC.
Here is my top 5.
1. Rashad Evans-UFC Record 14-3-1, Season 2 TUF Winner. Former UFC Light Heavyweight Champion. Former TUF Coach.
*Key Wins-Michael Bisping, Chuck Liddell, Stephan Bonnar, Forrest Griffin, Thiago Silva, Rampage Jackson, Tito Ortiz, Phil Davis, Dan Henderson, Chael Sonnen.*
2. Forrest Griffin-UFC Record 10-5, Season 1 TUF Winner. Former UFC Light Heavyweight Champion. Former TUF Coach.
*Key Wins-Stephan Bonnar x2, Shogun Rua, Rampage Jackson, Tito Ortiz x2, Rich Franklin.*
3. Matt Serra-UFC Record 7-7, Season 4 TUF Winner. Former UFC Welterweight Champion. Former TUF Coach.
*Key Wins-Georges St. Pierre, Frank Trigg, Chris Lytle, Ivan Menjivar, Yves Edwards.*
4. Kenny Florian-UFC Record 12-5, Season 1 TUF contestant. 3 time UFC title challenger.
*Key Wins-Sam Stout, Joe Lauzon, Roger Huerta, Joe Stevenson, Clay Guida, Takanori Gomi, Diego Nunes.*
5. Nate Diaz-UFC Record 12-7, Season 5 TUF Winner. Former UFC title challenger.
*Key Wins-Gray Maynard, Donald Cerrone, Takanori Gomi, Jim Miller, Melvin Guillard, Marcus Davis, Manny Gamburyan, Rory Markham, Kurt Pellegrino, Josh Neer.*
Guys that were fringe for me, Josh Koscheck, Michael Bisping, Gray Maynard, Roy Nelson, Diego Sanchez.( Added in Roy because he seemed like a popular choice of the ones i left out.)
How would you rank the top 5 TUF fighters as far as accomplishment in the UFC?
EDIT-I have moved Diaz ahead of Koscheck.
