5. Georges St-Pierre (94)
St-Pierre endured an incredibly tough start to life, and was frequently bullied and robbed by his fellow peers at school. His father sent him to a karate class to help him defend himself, which later led to wrestling, jiu-jitsu and boxing classes. He eventually turned pro as an MMA fighter aged 21, and immediately impressed with his wide range of abilities both as an upright fighter and on the deck. St-Pierre was on a six-year unbeaten streak before announcing he was taking some time away from MMA in 2013, following a controversial decision win over Johny Hendricks. He was back in training in early 2014, before a torn ACL hindered any potential comeback to the UFC. The Canadian has won the UFC Welterweight belt twice - making nine successful defences on the second occasion before entering semi-retirement. He is still yet to officially announce any potential plans for a comeback to the sport, though rumours have been rife in 2016 about a return. His stats are pretty well balanced in-game - perhaps a fair reflection of his excellent all-round fighting ability inside the octagon. His highest rating is his stand-up ability, which is a colossal 95.
