When it comes to the conversation about deciding who is the best UFC featherweight of all time, two names standout above all others: Alexander Volkanovski and José Aldo. Cementing their places amongst the best to ever do it, both champions defeated a bevy of top-level competition, ranging from young, promising contenders, to established divisional royalty.
Before he signed with the biggest promotion on the planet, Aldo made a name for himself in the WEC as their unstoppable 145-lb king, finishing Mike Brown to win the title, then later defending it twice against Urijah Faber and Manny Gamburyan.
