In 2013, MMA Junkie, with the backing of the USA Today mothership, put out a specialty magazine.
MMA Junkie’s “Power” issue was our look, in the middle of that year, at the most influential people in the sport.
The cover featured Jon Jones, then the UFC’s new light heavyweight champion and now its current heavyweight titleholder, most prominently and in the center. Surrounding him were Ronda Rousey, Georges St-Pierre, Anderson Silva and Dana White. And even though only Jones and White are left as active MMA figures, the other three names still carry much weight in the game 10 years later.
But what about the rest of the people who were what we considered the biggest names in the sport 10 years ago? Where are they now?
Here’s a look back at the most influential from our “Power” issue from mid-2013.
