Best MMA Fighters By Country (All-Time)

Posted on May 20, 2025 by Jason

Ever wonder who the top-rated fighters by country are? Wonder no more…

Below are the “best” fighters by nationality, using all-time rating points. For the purposes of this article, I combined the men and the women into one list. Though, the value of a “point” isn’t exactly the same between genders, I think it will be good enough for this.

Canada

#1 – Georges St. Pierre [26-2-0, 37917 pts]

If you expected to see Jones at the top spot, make sure you revisit GSP’s ledger. He faced a murderer’s row of Welterweight contenders, beat all of them, and avenged both of his losses in doing so.

Honorable Mention: Rory MacDonald (#105)
