Anderson Silva and Jose Aldo were honored to be put into the UFC Hall of Fame as the ceremony was held at T-Mobile Arena. Other famous fighters in the same class are Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone and Jens Pulver.
Anderson is deservingly considered 1 of the best fighters in the industry. Silva holds the record of 16 wins in a row and has 2nd most consecutive championship defenses with 10, as ahead of him are only Jon Jones and Demetrious Johnson – each with 11.
Jose’s stats are also very remarkable. Aldo is the best featherweight fighter in UFC history. He defended his championship successfully 9 times.
