It could very possibly be Demetrious Johnson.

Without a doubt it's DJ.

He uses everything routinely, and his best work is in transition.

His clinch game is disgusting and very active. It's one of the best in MMA.
His footwork is great and his scrambles are world class.
Physically, his conditioning, preparation, speed, ect. are unquestioned.
Mentally, his ability read, react and adapt tactics is out standing.
He has fantastic coaching.

Oh, and he's very very good at wrestling, grappling and striking.

He's beat up guys with nasty ground and pound, he passes guard very well, he's shredded guys with his clinch, has submissions from mutliple positions(including the air) and lights guys up with with kicks, punches, knees and elbows.

It's DJ.

 

[El Fernas]

DJ or his XXL version, Jon Jones (or is DJ the XXS version of Jones?), and it might be DJ as he never was the taller/longer fighter, never, at best they were equal on size.

 

[BlankaPresident]

Mighty Mouse is miles above everyone else when it comes to being all around great.

 

[Leonard Haid]

Nobody's mentioned Charles Oliveira. OK, Charles Oliveira. And what about Islam.

 

[generalyum]

Pettis was awesome in his prime

 

[OldBoy91]

You forgot “outroided all of his opponents”

Not sure even Johnny boy outroided Vitor tbh...

 

[Hazuki Ryo]

I won't pick the obvious (Jones, GSP, MM...)

Instead I'll pick Bendo

 

[Marko Polo]

DJ or his XXL version, Jon Jones (or is DJ the XXS version of Jones?), and it might be DJ as he never was the taller/longer fighter, never, at best they were equal on size.

Jon is insanely over rated. He fought most of his career juiced and his biggest weapon was his eye pokes - no joke. Look how he’s performed since they forced him to close his hands. OSP / Santos / Reyes pushing him to the brink

Mighty Mouse, Fedor, GSP, and Andy.​

 

[bjjwar]

Jones had good striking, but alot of that was due to him being usually 2 tims the size of his opponents and them being 50. The times where he faced someone bigger and younger he always struggled alot in the stand up department.

GSP's striking was also pretty average.

 

[Daniel_LaRusso]

Cerrone had KO power in his kicks, excellent combinations and was a wizard on the ground.

I wouldn’t go that far.

 

[Bullitt68]

Hard not to pick Mighty Mouse. Punches, kicks, knees, wrestling in the clinch and shots, GNP, grappling on top, grappling on bottom...there was literally nothing that he didn't do at an insanely high level. GSP and Jones didn't threaten people with wicked guards, Anderson wasn't going to outwrestle anyone above the skill level of Lee Murray, but I can't imagine a single scenario out of bounds for a Mighty Mouse clinic.

Other than Mighty Mouse, GSP and Fedor always stood out as the pinnacle of not just threatening but actually being able to win from just about anywhere just about any way. Marco Ruas and Frank Shamrock back in the day also impressively put together well-rounded skill-sets, with Frank actually excelling and being able to beat people with strikes or submissions, even though he never really had good TDD.

 

[Rapa]

Jones,gsp,Dj,topuria,edwards

 

[VinceArch]

I wouldn’t go that far.

And that's okay.

 

[arcadeperfect]

It could very possibly be Demetrious Johnson.

No contest.

It's DJ, he could literally do everything and there was 0 positions where he felt/looked vulnerable. Jones has bad boxing, and GSP has looked vulnerable in a stand up fight against certain opponents. DJ's only "weakness" was his size, but that's not related to skill set so that's irrelevant. DJ has actually scored 1 shot KOs despite being flyweight, something neither Jones or GSP can claim. He's also wrestled evenly with an Olympic gold medalist and was able to survive a whole round against Rodtang in a Muay Thai round.
