Royce: for a lot of people he was the first to showcase bjj and changed the game
3rd place is either Fedor or Mike Tyson. In their primes they both influenced a lot of people.

GSP-set a good example for mma and created at least one subgeneration of new fighters that won't grow up to be complete dooshbags
fedor should be in there. I wish it were top four
1. Royce Gracie - for reasons already stated
2. Chuck Liddell - for making the sport mainstream
3. BJ Penn - for developing one of the first all round dangerous games - obvioulsy less so in later years
4. Randy Couture - for reasons above
Segal?
Segal- For all of his kick ass movies in the 90's
Van Dam- Same as above
Billy Blanks- For giving us Tae Bo
But in all seriousness....
Royce Gracie, Randy Couture, and of course BJ Penn
