Which fighter beat the most UFC Champions?

Hendo has beaten 7:

Newton
Big Nog
Bustamante
Vitor
Franklin
Bisping
Shogun
Was just gonna post him. Good thing you got here first.
I thought he only 5, forgot Newton and Bustamate ever had titles.

I assume Hendo must be a tied winner. I don't think anyone else can top 7 names!
Only way I see anyone topping that is if we start counting rematches too.

and Sherk makes it 7

Good call. I didn’t actually check, and forgot Sherk was a UFC champ, too.

umm if they were not beaten when they were champ, then they didnt beat The Champ.

change your thread title to Ex-UFC champs.
By your logic, the person would actually have to be the reigning UFC champion at the time of the fight. That would be silly.
 
Lol ts made a Fedor nut hugging thread and you guys already gave him answers about many guys with a better number than him. Good job.

{<redford}
You mean the answers I literally requested in the thread title? What a shock.
 
Henderson was also the only 3 - weight champion. Besides Middle and light heavyweight champion of Pride, he was also the open weight = heavyweight champion of Rings, King of Kings Tournament.

Silly you mean logical right? or honestly stated maybe?

and actually who is the man that beat the most UFC champs? Must be Couture or maybe Mir and GSP has 3 and if i go down your route of mental gymnastics to justify my answer technically wasnt BJ the currant LW champ when GSP beat him at WW once?
 
If a person insists that these be current UFC champs. Then I’ll stick with GSP.

Hughes, Serra, Penn, Condit, and Bisping.
 
This status seems easiest to achieve at HW. This is how many times the belt has changed hands in each weight class:
HW: 19
LHW: 13
MW: 10
WW: 11
LW: 9
FW: 4
BW: 6
FlyW: 1

W FW: 2
W BW: 4
W FlyW: 1
W StrawW: 3

You sound very confused. You said they "weren't champ" if they lost before winning it, but by that logic then they also weren't champion if they were ex-champion. So the thread title should be "former or future UFC champions," but by no measure "Ex-UFC Champions." That's not what I asked and not what your logic suggested it should be.
 
Randy Couture also has 7

Coleman
Tito
Chuck
Randelman
Sylvia
Vitor
Maurice Smith

lol what a muddled up shit post.

Ex means former ex wife = former wife

and who said anything about Future?!

You try and confuse the issue instead of just admitting that Fedor has never beaten a UFC champ.

He has beaten Former or Ex-UFC champions.

I know that ex means former, derelict. I was explaining to you that your criticism that my post should say "How many ex-champions" did Fedor beat doesn't wash because you claimed the person "wasn't champ" when Fedor beat him. If the criteria for error is that the person wasn't actually champ at the time, then "Ex-Champion" doesn't solve the problem by your own confused logic.

Secondly, "who said anything about future," *I* said that. I'm the thread starter, and the thread starter chooses the topic. I expect you're the type who will end up with dubs soon though.
 
Off the top of my head GSP beat at least 6. Hughes X2, Penn X2, Serra, Condit, Hendricks, and Bisping.

Plus numerous champs from SF, WSOF, etc.

This is a Fedor love thread, GSP going to be hated on.
