There's so much talent in Russia it's insane, yet we see so little of it come over to the UFC. Who are some Russian fighters you follow and watch that you wish to see in the UFC?

Alexander Shabliy Lightweight 15-3, 24 years old. Super talented, way better than Sage Northcutt will ever be. Just lost a split decision to Eduard Vartanyan who's 17-3 and 25 years old, Vartanyan is another top Lightweight outside the UFC from Russia


Alexey Kunchenko 16-0, M-1 Welterweight Champion.

Sage Northcutt isn't a measuring stick, he's just a good fighter to use as an example of all the shitty fighters the UFC has filled its roster with. MMA fans don't know much about the sport, they aren't aware of young lightweights like Lowen Tynanes, Vartanyan, Shabliy, Abdurakhmonov etc etc. There's so many high level fighters outside the UFC and so many shit fighters in the UFC these days.

Sage Northcutt gets paid 100,000 per fight, the UFC promotes him and analysts talk about him like he'll be a champion someday. He's joke, all the TUF rejects and regional level fighters that fill up the UFC roster are jokes too most of them are in no way "prospects" either. There's real prospects out there, that are really...really good that the UFC doesn't bother to sign, they sign some sure...but the UFC needs to set a higher precedence on skill level and abilities and not on whether you're american and or can talk shit in english.

Analysts, maybe I should have said journalists and panelists? Luke Thomas, Helwani, Brian Stann, Joe Rogan etc. Speak of Sage like he has all the makings of a future champion and is super talented. Ehh I'm not buying it, plenty of guys around Sage's age with far less experience who are significantly better.

wow ... didnt know that. Speechless.
 
Peter Yan, Timur Valiev (if he can ever stay healthy), Bibert Tumenov (Albert Tumenov's cousin)
 
I'd like to see Khabib fight in the UFC.
 
Putin put him in there he is well versed in 2 or 3 disciplines. Putin is pretty much an bad sum bitch that is why Obama was terrified any time he thought he heard somebody say the word Putin. Somebody would say Putin's name and that coward would go get in an underground bunker.
