A Ground Pounder is an Infantryman, generally.
However, I've heard it used by Marines to describe any Army soldier.

I would have to disagree with many of your choices. Jon Jones - for sure he seems to have some of the best ground n pound out there he has some sick elbows. GSP - He has such good wrestling that he has some good control and positions on the ground that he just dominates. Fedor Emelianenko - Has always had some of the best GNP out there he postures up high and just drops bombs on em. Alistair Overeem - He always seem to dominate with GNP Cheick Kongo - When he gets on top he is an animal. Since he is a good striker he has some power in those punches. Tito Ortiz - He seems to find holes in all defense in his GNP Brock Lesnar - Because his wrestling pedigree is so high he is very good at control. I disagree with Jon Fitch because most of his wins are by decision which means his ground and pound isn't very effective because he can't finish. Also the same with Chael Sonnen, Clay Guida is just wild not that good, they were the only ones I disagreed with.

Ground pounder is a term the came from other military personel such as pilots. Its a term thats used to describe someone such as a infantryman that does his or her fighting on the ground verses a pilot that does his or her fighting in the air, or a sailor on a ship.

They're the guys (not girls) that carry 30 pounds of ammunition, at least one gun, 20 pounds of food and water, some tourniquets and bandages in case they get hit and sometimes a couple of radios while looking for the enemy to destroy.
(Many of them carry more, particularly in the ammo department.)

Infantry. Navy rides boats, Air Force rides airplanes, Airborne rides parachutes, Armor rides tanks. Infantry rides LPC's (leather personnel carriers).
