#4. Henry Cejudo: The UFC king?
'Triple C' has been one of the greatest champions in UFC history. His accomplishments in two weight divisions and an Olympic Wrestling gold medal rank him among the best.
Winning over fans, however, has never been among Cejudo's strong suits. Labeled by the internet as one of the most 'cringe' fighters in the UFC, Cejudo has never let the detractors put him down.

Though mostly ignored by fans in the GOAT argument, Cejudo has insisted that he is the best combat sports athlete ever. However, unlike Lee, Cejudo has some stats to support his claims.
From dethroning flyweight legend Demetrious Johnson to being an Olympic gold medalist to simultaneously defending two UFC titles, Henry Cejudo has done it all. Although fans may not agree, his confidence in himself has earned him praise from Khabib Nurmagomedov.
#3. Colby 'Chaos' Covington: The people's champ?
Not many fighters in the UFC are as controversial as Colby Covington. Covington has also been the most vocal about his political stance among everyone in the UFC. Claiming himself to be former US President Donald Trump's favorite, he has never shied away from voicing his support for Trump.
Since making his UFC debut on August 23, 2014, his fiery personality and dominant performances have earned him many fans. However, when it comes to defending his performances and vouching for his skills as a fighter, no one does it better than Covington himself. He even proclaimed himself the people's champ before his title fight against UFC welterweight champion Kamaru Usman.
Even after his loss, he has always maintained that the referee stopped that fight early. Now set for a rematch against Usman at the upcoming UFC 267, Covington's confidence levels are higher than ever. He believes he can end Usman's reign and prove that he is as good as he claims to be.
