2. Georges St-Pierre, TUF 12

Georges St-Pierre is the GOAT to many fans. Understandably, he did more than give us great fights but also set the bar high on how fighters should present themselves. He conducted himself professionally, and while he didn't back down when opponents got verbally disrespectful, he always treated the sportsmanship aspect of martial arts with respect.

On Season 12, St-Pierre's wit proved superior over Josh Koscheck's brash. In an impressive fashion, St-Pierre's tactical approach to fighting translated well into his coaching. He was playing chess when Koscheck was playing checkers. It was evident from the moment they picked teams when St-Pierre faked his first pick and flashed it intentionally in front of Koscheck who took the bait.

This tactical advantage continued through the tournament where Team GSP marched ahead after the opening round. They outnumbered Team Koscheck 5-3 in the quarter-finals and 3-1 in the semi-finals before the all-GSP finale between Michael Johnson and Jonathan Brookins.

Of course, who could forget him bringing Mike Tyson and Freddie Roach for reinforcements? All in the spirit of wanting the best for his team.
