Is Erick Silva the only prospect who never panned out?

Too early to tell whether he's panned out or not.

Also almost everyone on this board is very supportive of Erick and optimistic about his long future ahead. Your the negative one saying he's been exposed and won't reach his potential.
Indeed.

I mean, he's so young amd has his whole career ahead of him...

I don’t get why the guy is always singled out as soon as someone wants to mock a potential up and comer.

Physical charisma plus

When i see this guy's name in a thread title i know there will be pages and pages of this shit.

I get it, a bunch of people jumped on Ericks nuts when he finished his first few opponents. He looked like a world beater against the low tier guys, but got exposed against the guys in the 10-15 range.

But Erick Silva is not the first or last mma prospect that never reached perceived potential.

Ah good ole Sherdog groupthink.
He's too young and got excited easily, that's why he gets tired so fast, once he ages a little bit and hit his prime, he will be champ again
 
Fucking lol at Erick Silva’s Wikipedia page under “nicknames”:
