He can this to the list of achievements.

It’s fair to say that 2015 was a half decent year for The Notorious, and now he can add another sexy accomplishment to the last 12 months.

“And while his accomplishments inside the Octagon are impressive, his flashy excesses outside of it make him legendary.’

Dropping half-a-million dollars on a pair of cars? Check. Debating the merits of purchasing a chimp as a mascot? Yep. Sparring with – the summarily talking shit about – Game of Thrones’ massive Mountain? You know it.”

Predicting the year ahead, contributor James Montgomery said:

“In 2016, he says he’s going to move up a weight class in the hopes of claiming another belt, meaning that if you’re sick of him now, you’re shit outta luck; King Conor’s reign is just beginning.”

The Notorious was joined in the upper echelons of the list by some typical names, and a couple of surprisingly brilliant others, like Bernie Saunders.
