The former UFC lightweight champion defied the odds as an undersized fighter for most of his career. Surprisingly, even at featherweight and bantamweight, he appeared undersized.
During his UFC tenure, Frankie Edgar never made excuses, and never gloated after a big victory. With a focus on steady improvements day by day, 'The Answer' is a fighter's fighter and that's why fans hate to see him lose. The New Jersey native puts on action-packed fights with an exciting style.
With victories in three different weight classes, Frankie Edgar has garnered widespread favoritism after some gritty performances. Edgar walked through the fire against B.J. Penn in the process of capturing lightweight gold. In his second title defense, Frankie Edgar received 'Fight of the Night' honors against Gray Maynard in a fight that resulted in a draw.
In his move to bantamweight, 'The Answer' took on Pedro Munhoz. In a typical Edgar performance, he pushed the limits as did his opponent. In the end, both combatants would receive 'Fight of the Night' honors.
It has become increasingly clear over the years just how well cherished Frankie Edgar has become to the mixed martial arts community. Fans to this day hate to see him lose. However, in his last two UFC outings, the veteran has been on the receiving end of two highlight reel knockouts.
#3. Former featherweight champion Max Holloway
Max Holloway returns to action this weekend against the No. 3-ranked Yair Rodriguez. En route to capturing the 145-pound title, Max Holloway has become a fighter fans hate to see lose in the UFC. 'Blessed' holds the distinction as the only American to secure gold at featherweight.
After defeating Jose Aldo twice, he became a fighter that fans never wanted to see in the losing column. The Hawaiian native became a fan favorite well before he became champion though. Following a war with Ricardo Lamas at UFC 199, the former champion will forever be known for pointing to the ground and throwing caution to the wind.
Max Holloway really turned fans after his performance against Brian Ortega. As a narrow underdog in the contest, Holloway shattered the masses' expectations after landing an obsene number of strikes against 'T-City'. The fight would ultimately get called off when a doctor's stoppage came in the fourth round.
Max Holloway has grown up in front of UFC fans and that's the driving force as to why they hate seeing him lose. When the Hawaiian entered the UFC, he was just entering his 20's and already a potent force on the feet.
However, Holloway was tasked with a tough debut when he was defeated by Dustin Poirier. To this day, the style of 'Blessed' makes him a fighter fans hate to see lose.
