#6 Georges St-Pierre – 1.9m followers
Arguably the greatest UFC champion of all time, former Welterweight and Middleweight kingpin Georges St-Pierre might be in semi-retirement at the time of writing, but he’s still one of the most popular fighters on the UFC’s roster. GSP’s easy-going personality has always connected well with the fans and it shines through on his Instagram, making it easy to understand why he’d have almost two million followers.
His posts are pretty interesting, too – sure, there’s plenty of standard training photos and videos, but his status as a legend in the sport means you can find Instagram shots of GSP posing with the likes of Chuck Norris, Sugar Ray Leonard, Arnold Schwarzenegger and even a gigantic tyrannosaurus rex skull – fitting, considering St-Pierre once claimed the things that excited him were “women, dinosaurs and the violence of the Octagon”!
