The frontrunners for this title in my opinion are GSP , Cruz , Aldo . But i have to go with Cruz because even though his body has failed him several times he still found a way to comeback and win the belt by beating TJ Dillashaw . He has the most unique fighting style . Greatest striking defense in MMA History , Elite Takedowns , Elite TDD , Elite at scrambles , guard passing , reversing position from the bottom , Elite standup , GOAT footwork , Good MMA Boxing, Good kicking game(pre injuries), , Elite at switching from striking to takedowns , Great at baiting opponents and making them overcommit , GOAT Fight IQ (Alongside GSP). He lacks power and finishing ability but he is very skilled and thats what helped him become who he is one of the GOATs . Such a shame that injuries took so much out of him and he couldnt reach his full potential.
