Worst champ in UFC history with minimum 1 title defence?

[MMA fan93]

Lets see who all actually read the OP. Disqualifying Bisping because he will be the obvious pick for a lot of guys.

 

[mudrubble]

Lie. Blatant lie.

He has zero title defenses in his career.

And lots of apologists.

Fun fighter when he was active though.

 

[Sansnom]

Conor.

Oh wait, he has 0 defenses.

 

[trident]

Bisping had a title defense

 

[trident]

Gonna go with Bendo because I dont like the guy

 

[Sonny Qc]

Renan Barao ?

 

[Bumblebeef]

Nah Conor is not worse because he never lost a title defense. He is a goat.

 

[Fraz]

Robbie Lawler

Pulver? idk hard to say because you have to take into account era.

 

[TheHotness]

Bisping

 

[Cowboy Cerroliveira]

Maurice Smith. Defended his title once against Tank Abbott and now has a Lobovian record.

 

[Gay Jesus]

Buddeh

Robbie Lawler

Surprised to see this answer so early, but I don't disagree

I'd have to see a list to pick one though

Yeah. It’s hard to disagree with. Lawyer is awesome, but when all/most of your defenses are hard fought split decisions, there’s definitely an argument for “weak champion”. As shitty as that sounds, and as much as I don’t want it to sound shitty.

Definitely shitty. A win is a win. Beating tough competition is impressive even if it's not dominant.

I think Condit beat him

Yeah but if you take the era into account...

Props for Woodley for taking the #1 contender guys always.
But imho , besides being a snoozefest he lost the 2nd Wonderboy fight, and the Maia title defense was so boring it even broke a record.

 

[Squall10]

That Bisping guy had a title defense and it was exciting. Lyoto is the worst champion and showed his first win against Shogun was illegitimate in the rematch.

Couldnt even remember her name(had to google Holly Holm fights)
