The debate to define who is the best MMA fighter of all time is a subject that always generates controversy and is subjective, as there are several criteria that can be addressed. Names like those of Jon Jones, Georges St-Pierre, Anderson Silva, Amanda nunes, Demetrious Johnson e Khabib Nurmagomedov are often pointed out and Joe Rogan spoke out and revealed who he considers to be the number one in the sport.

“Who is the best fighter of all time? Jones won the belt at the beginning of his career and, from then on, became the athlete with the most victories in title fights. He's the most talented, for sure. Jones was the youngest fighter to become UFC champion, beating Shogun, who is a legend! He dominated every fighter before facing Gustafsson. Jones hadn't lost a round and was finishing off his opponents. Look what he did to Rashad,'Rampage', Lyoto and Cormier, in the first fight. Jones managed to take down someone like Cormier! The second fight had no result, but we know what happened. He kicked Cormier in the head and knocked him out. It was spectacular!” said Rogan.

Jon Jones became light heavyweight champion in 2011, when he defeated Mauritius Shogun and defended the belt eight times in his first reign and another three in his second.
