    Jeremy Horn probably.

    Chael Sonnen x3, Chuck Liddell x2, Dean Lister x2, Ricardo Arona x2, Frank Shamrock, Anderson Silva, Minotauro, Forrest Griffin, Randy Couture, Babalu Sobral, Vernon White, Nate Marquart, Dave Louiseu, Matt Lindland, Rousimar Palhares, Trevor Prangley, Jorge Santiago, Gilbert Yvel, Dan Severn, and Travis Fulton.

    Dude will fight anywhere, any weightclass, any time.

    GSP

    He has cleaned out the toughest division the sport has ever seen.


    Or BJ Penn

    No, I thought about it and it is BJ Penn beyond any doubt:
    HE IS A LIGHTWEIGHT REMEMBER

    Prime Gomi - One of the best Lightweights ever
    Prime Florian - Top 3 Lightweights fighting today
    Prime GSP - The best WW ever
    Prime Hughes - The 2nd best WW ever
    Heavyweight Machida - One of the best Lt Heavyweights ever

    Sherk
    Edgar
    Stevenson
    Uno
    Gracie
    Ludwig
    Serra
    Thomas

    Who has faced the toughest competition? Probably Horn, but he's had varied success.

    Who has been successful against the toughest competition? GSP and it's not even debatable. Since coming to the UFC, he has not had a single easy fight and has lost twice and avenged both of his losses in devastating fashion. (One of them, twice!)

    Fedor? Yeah, sure, but he hasn't exactly been roughing it his whole career.

    I got to say that Kevin Randalman has fought an impressive roster.

    Shogun
    Crocop X 2
    Rampage
    Fedor
    Renato Sobral
    Sakuraba
    Coutoure
    Lidell


    Renato Sobral has also fought a lot of top opponents.
