First time you seen the fighter, you knew he would be champion some day.

That’s obviously his much older less talented brother

 

[Tugboat]

Khabib. After his 3rd fight I predicted he would go undefeated and get the belt. So far so good. And no, I’m not a
nuthugger, but the guys got talent.

I knew houston Alexander was going to be a big fucking deal, then the racist mafia UFC fucked his career over @WAR RANDLEMAN!

 

[BigGucciSosa]

It was so obvious that Jones was gonna get the belt. Dude was 21 with less than 10 fights tossing around veterans like they were children.

 

[Dave4TheHorde]

Weidman. When he debuted, it was obvious that his skillset was going to cause Anderson Silva major issues.

 

[Agnawedbone]

When I was right? Rose. Ferguson.

A lot more wrongs, though.

 

[BigDaddyChristopher]

My first fight I seen Holloway i forget who it was, but I was like this guy here.. I also thought Pettis was going to be right behind..

Max didn't disappoint.

T Ferg after TUF.

 

[TheMadHatter]

Back when the UFC used to show the undercard fights after the main event I watched Shane Carwin fight and thought he would run through everyone. I remember looking at his picture and stats on the UFC website prior to the event and hoping his fight would be aired after the main event.

[IVovchanchyn]

Who was the huge buff black guy, I think wore a flat cap?

Sherdog was really wet over him for a couple weeks. Peppy? Petey?

papi abedi. Swedish guy. Sort of when the term "explosive" took off for what we know it as now lol

 

[Kowboy On Sherdog]

Tito Ortiz. Training partner of Tank. Had a couple setbacks .... but earned Hespect after the Frank Shamrock fight. Then his ground and pound was on point...

 

[Crimson Glory]

Royce Gracie, I knew when I was 3.

 

[AP_RESURRECTION]

gsp, jones

 

[GOD...frey Jones]

I actually saw it with TJ on TUF. Although a lot of his opponents didn't belong there, his sheer aggression and attitude was clear to see.

Stipe I just knew because of his youth and athleticism and well roundedness.
