which UFC fighter had/has the biggest aura?

[yekmurat]

Wtf is aura this is fighting and if your record is full of wins then your opponwnt scares thats all

 

[A-Level Wrestler]

This man

New fans won’t be able to grasp the aura that Fedor had in his prime. Never seen anything like it.

Jon Jones is the most dominant champ and all that, but he’s never felt unbeatable to me. As far as newer generation fighters, Khabib had the most aura. Even now I believe that Khabib could make Abu Dhabi weight and kick Islams ass. For the next gen, Topuria will be that guy if he continues winning impressively.

Brock. jones and conor!

 

[Neck&Neck]

Brock
Or Houston Alexander after that one win

Okay there 2019 account.

The whole list threw me off on first read because Silva being honorable mention in an aura contest is just silly, but on reread I've decided OP must've just been introduced to the sport in the last 5 years. Join date checks out lol.

Khamzat and Romero being > Silva and GSP, two of the most dominant long term ACTUAL CHAMPIONS of all time, is just an objective sign of being under or misinformed.

 

[Colemanstove]

Fedor, Anderson, GSP, Rhonda, Jones, Khabib

Anyone that doesn't mention Fedor is a filthy Newb or is just plain retarded. Cancel me bro. Fedor was the best

Anderson in his prime.

 

[Senzo Tanaka]

For UFC, it was Anderson. People were afraid to engage despite him having holes in his game.

I’ve noticed the same with Jones in recent years. Guys are so afraid him and find it hard to go after him despite him not showing any KO power like Anderson.

"Aura of invincibility" - is, IMHO, a thing of the past and no longer seen.​

Go watch some old fights and see what you missed.

 

[usernamee]

Great list.
I'd place Anderson Silva right near the top though

And honestly, Ronda Rousey had an aura too, thanks to people like Rogan claiming she's the female Mike Tyson and the media hyping her

She also finished most of the people she fought in under a minute

 

[usernamee]

I'm gonna throw in a wildcard that may not necessarily fit that well but anyways.

Palhares when he was on that streak of ruining peoples knees in like 20 seconds

He had that ruining knees aura at least.

 

[Clark Rogers]

Randy Couture…

Just something about him that made you believe he would just always overcome the odds, even well past the age of 40…

You substitute someone with Couture’s exact height, weight, and age against Lesnar and you wouldn’t give that man a shot in hell to defend his title, but a good amount people actually believed Couture would expose Lesnar…

This is a good one. When he won that HW belt from Sylvia, then defended against Gonzaga, he definitely had that "Randy's gonna find a way" type feeling. Same thing when he handles young Vitor, and plenty of others.

 

[J'Ghasta]

Anderson Silva in his prime had the most aura of any UFC fighter. Fedor Emelianenko in his prime had the most aura of any MMA fighter ever.

 

[Blanqa Blanqua]

The fact that you have Silva at honorable mention discredits everything else you said. That guy was the definition of aura during his reign.

QFT

yet he got Khamzat in there as Mike Tyson lololol

 

[Blanqa Blanqua]

Anderson Silva in his prime had the most aura of any UFC fighter. Fedor Emelianenko in his prime had the most aura of any MMA fighter ever.

[BowserJr]

Anderson

 

[Gnosisrausch]

Prime Mc Gregor and Anderson Silva definitely need to be higher on the list than Khamzat and Romero. I'm not a fan of Mc Gregor, but that was an insanely intense aura back then.
