Conor McGregor may think he’s en route to becoming the first man to hold two UFC titles at the same time…but he’s not. No, even if McGregor manages to beat Rafael dos Anjos in the main event of UFC 197, as Yoda said in Star Wars way back when…there is another.

And it’s not who you’re thinking of. It’s not BJ Penn. While Penn had a legendary career, he never held two belts at the same time. He won the welterweight title off Matt Hughes in 2004 and then won the lightweight title in 2008.

“Oh, well what about Randy Couture” you might be saying? Well, Couture was first UFC heavyweight champ in 2000, lost the title in 2002 and then became light heavyweight champ in 2003 so again, close but no cigar.
