10 UFC Stars Who Have Destroyed The Most Legends

Reading off the names that this next man has defeated in his underrated UFC tenure only highlights a record that would make even the most accomplished MMA legend jealous.

The man in question is of course, Rashad Evans.

Winning the second Ultimate Fighter series way back in 2005, Evans had been hailed as a future great inside the Octagon and his initial run following the competition only proved this billing to be true.

After drawing with Tito Ortiz, Evans would manage to beat Michael Bisping by split decision and then knocked out both Chuck Liddell and Forrest Griffin.

He would suffer the odd blip here or there and lost to the likes of Lyoto Machida and Jon Jones, but decision wins over Thiago Silva and Quinton 'Rampage' Jackson laid the foundations for his TKO silencing of Ortiz - avenging that draw from earlier in his UFC career.

If that list of mega names wasn't enough, Evans would get the better of Chael Sonnen and Dan Henderson towards the back end of his run in the company, too.

Yes, he probably didn't win as many titles as expected and he never managed to usurp Jon Jones as the true man in the Light Heavyweight division, but that star-studded lineup of victims surely earns Evans the honour of being talked about as one of the all-time greats... yet he still barely ever gets the respect he absolutely deserves.
