The UFC is celebrating its 30th year and to commemorate the milestone, MMA Junkie has compiled its 30 greatest UFC fighters of all time. Every day until the anniversary of UFC 1 on Nov. 12 (1993), we will reveal one fighter on our list.
Today, MMA Junkie reporter Nolan King brings you No. 25: Tito Ortiz.
You can watch King’s career retrospective on Ortiz above; video produced by Ken Hathaway.
Also see:
- No. 30: Dustin Poirier
- No. 29: Frank Shamrock
- No. 28: Francis Ngannou
- No. 27: Joanna Jedrzejczyk
- No. 26: Frankie Edgar
About the list: All 12 members of our staff submitted their own individual 30 greatest UFC fighters list. Each fighter was assigned a corresponding numerical value based on where they were ranked on an individual’s list, i.e. No. 1 = 30, No. 2 = 29, etc. We took those numbers and added them up to get a total number for each fighter to determine the composite ranking of MMA Junkie’s 30 greatest UFC fighters of all time.
