Henry Cejudo and his show with The Schmo is a gift that keeps on giving. The fighter has transformed into a full-on YouTuber and has kept his fans entertained with his show “Triple C & Schmo”. In the latest episode, Cejudo talks about his top-five fighter list and explains why each of them deserves those spots.

Cejudo ranks his friend, Jon Jones as the best fighter of all time and has a former rival, Demetrious Johnson in the second spot. Former UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva gets the prestigious third place. Cejudo decides to get a little controversial as he ranks himself above UFC welterweight’s greatest fighter Georges St Pierre.

Jones has the best resume of all UFC fighters. The former light heavyweight champion has a record of 26-1-0 and that one loss came from disqualification. Jones was the youngest ever UFC champion and has a total of 13 title defenses and is now preparing to move up to the heavyweight division.

Cejudo is a two-division champion and has defeated some of the best in the business. “I’ve been thinking about it a lot, I’m actually number 4. I used to put GSP there but I’m actually number 4,” said Cejudo. “Just because of the fact that I won both my belts from the greatest. Just because Bisping had a championship at that time, doesn’t mean he was the best in the world.”

GSP, who retired from the sport of MMA in the year 2013 as the welterweight champion, returned to the octagon four years later to contest for the middleweight belt. The Canadian fighter took on, then middleweight champion Michael Bisping and beat him via submission at UFC 217.

“I literally beat the best guys in the world. I beat three hall-of-Famers in my last four fights. Demetrious Johnson, TJ Dillashaw, and Dominick Cruz. I might have to put myself in the GOAT mountain, man. I used to think more of GSP but the reality is, I feel like he cherry-picked,” said Cejudo.
