St-Pierre is regarded as the country’s MMA GOAT and is hailed as one of the best fighters to set foot inside the Octagon. His six-year title reign in the welterweight division cemented his status on the Mount Rushmore of the sport, alongside Jon Jones, Demetrious Johnson, and Anderson Silva.

Patrick Côté – 10 Wins
Côté and St-Pierre entered the UFC in 2004, but Côté started his career in the light heavyweight division before slowly moving down in weight. He fought across four divisions in the UFC and recorded 10 victories. He also had a year of UFC hiatus from April 2011 to April 2012 before returning to the promotion.
“The Predator” scored his first UFC win in February 2007 when he unanimously beat Scott Smith. Since that triumph, he added nine more wins to his record, with notable wins over Drew McFedries, Ricardo Almeida, Joe Riggs, and Ben Saunders.
Sam Stout – 9 Wins
Sam Stout was once a top contender in the lightweight division. He made his UFC debut in March 2006 and scored a unanimous decision win over Spencer Fisher. He previously competed in other fight organizations like TMAC, ICC, and TKO before finally earning his spot on the UFC roster.
After that win, Stout lost five UFC fights before adding eight more victories with wins over Per Eklund, Matt Wiman, Joe Lauzon, Paul Taylor, Yves Edwards, Spencer Fisher (trilogy fight), Caros Fodor, and Cody McKenzie. “Hands of Stone” ended his UFC career with three successive defeats.
Rory MacDonald – 9 Wins
Another Canadian fighter who has nine career UFC wins is Rory MacDonald. MacDonald was a teammate of St-Pierre in TriStar Gym and was supposed to be the next UFC welterweight champion.
He made his promotional debut in January 2010 and submitted Mike Guymon. Since then, he has won eight more fights with stacked opponents, beating the likes of Nate Diaz, B.J. Penn, Jake Ellenberger, Demian Maia, Tyron Woodley, and Tarec Saffiedine.
“The Red King” also challenged Robbie Lawler for the welterweight title in July 2015 but fell short after a fifth-round TKO loss.
T.J. Grant – 8 Wins
Wrapping up the list of Canadian fighters with the most UFC wins is T.J. Grant, who competed in the lightweight division. Grant also fought in 11 UFC bouts but won eight of them. Grant may be unable to contend for a UFC title, but he’s still one of the most exciting fighters, as he bagged two Knockout of the Night awards and a Fight of the Night award.
His three losses were courtesy of Dong Hyun Kim, Johny Hendricks, and Ricardo Almeida. Meanwhile, Grant’s wins during his tenure with the Las Vegas-based promotion were against Ryo Chonan, Kevin Burns, Julio Paulino, Shane Roller, Carlo Prater, Evan Dunham, Matt Wiman, and Gray Maynard.
