Daniel Cormier

Daniel Cormier stands alone as the only fighter to hold UFC titles in both the heavyweight and light heavyweight divisions simultaneously, an unprecedented feat achieved in 2018. Backed by an elite Olympic wrestling pedigree, he amassed a 22-3 record, with 11 of his victories coming by knockout. His career is marked by concrete data: he absorbed only 2.9 significant strikes per minute, 30% fewer than the average light heavyweight champion, proving his defensive superiority even against elite strikers.
