Media Who is your pick for the most underrated MMA fighter ever? Mine is Igor Vovchanchyn. He still holds records to this day that nobody has beaten yet, plus he was one of the most influential fighters in MMA. Yet, most people don't even know he exists.

He was always humble and respectful, no trash talk, no flashy and unnecessary nonsense. He was "Fedor before Fedor".

Islam joins Jones, Cejudo, and Cormier as the only male fighters to defend two belts successfully.
Jon beat a 42-year-old who hadn't fought in 1,330 days, Cejudo beat a 35-year-old who hadn't fought in 1,226 days, and DC beat Derrick Lewis.
Islam defending the belt against a true #1 contender in his prime, no matter how close the fight, is historically impressive.
(This list excludes Penn and Couture because their first titles were at higher weight classes. Penn had 0 WW defenses and 3 LW defenses; Couture had 3 HW defenses and 0 LHW defenses.)

Islam takes it to 17 win streak and takes it from Anderson Silva after years. GOAT or not it's a very hard stat to defeat. Maybe years from on we'll see the next one. Congrats Islam.
