10 Best UFC Fighters Of The Decade
2. Conor McGregor
Love him or hate him, you cannot deny that Conor McGregor has become one of the most popular stars ever to step foot in the UFC and the fact that his name can be found in four of the top five bought PPVs in the company's history tells you all you need to know about his drawing power.
His meteoric rise started in 2013, with McGregor turning heads with convincing victories over Max Holloway, Diego Brandao, Dustin Poirier and Chad Mendes, before his championship-winning performance captured the imaginations of fans all over the world in 2015.
Dispatching arguably the greatest Featherweight in history in Jose Aldo after just 13 seconds, McGregor established himself as both a legitimate superstar fighter and all-round entertainer outside of the Octagon.
His iconic put-downs and fondness for elaborate showmanship have helped him steal the show on numerous occasions during the 2010's.
Yet, his wars with Nate Diaz and Khabib Nurmagomedov started to show cracks in his claim to being one of the most unstoppable fighters in the company.
Despite those losses, McGregor is still the biggest draw in the promotion as of 2019 and this decade will go down as the one that played host to 'The Notorious' one's emergence as the most must-see talent in UFC history.
