Who had hardest and most successful start to their MMA career?

Saku had a pretty decent start to his MMA career. Beside his debut loss to Kimo, he went 9-1-1 against some of the big names of the time before losing again (to Igor).
 
Lesnar. Nowadays under new WME management he'd have a TS right away first fight.

Yeah imagine not having to face the murderer's row of Heath Herring to get a title shot /s
 
Mickey Gall, he fought and beat murderers row:
Micheal Jackson

Yeah and they're now retired now or out of top 5 for a reason. They were cans. Also she never once beat a fought a striker until finally getting exposed. Rousey was a one dimensional overhyped overrated can fed fraud.

bruh

rogan vs dana ... who wins?
 
gotta go with Brock. Then Joe Warren imo.

Hardest start to a career might go to Pawel Nastula though. Big Nog, Aleksander Emelianenko, Edson Drago, Josh Barnett to start his career. Went 1-3. Which is still somehow impressive lol.

It was very impressive how he held his own against Nog and the other killers. Thats what we need nowadays. Top Talent from other MA but you need to pay them.
 
Only 5 would be in top 15 right now.
You can probably say that for anyone from the same era as Georges who is considered an all-time great.

I am pretty confident prime Koscheck beats Wonderboy.
 
You mention Soko but not Machida himself?

Machida went 15-0 up to the UFC belt vs MMA and K-1 greats, experienced veterans, undefeated prospects, future/ex-champions and hype trains!
  • Bonnar: future TUF finalist.
  • Franklin: future UFC champ, 14-0 at the time.
  • McDonald: HW kickboxer, 3-time K-1 Grand Prix Champ.
  • Greco: SuperHW K-1 kickboxer, WAKO and WKO champ.
  • BJ fucking Penn: future UFC champ in 2 weight classes!
  • Vernon White: experienced MMA veteran.
  • Heath: undefeated 9-0 at the time.
  • Sokoudjou: just KOd Lill'Nog and Arona, super hyped.
  • Tito Ortiz: ex UFC champ, experienced veteran.
  • Thiago Silva: undefeated 13-0 with 12 brutal finishes!
  • Evans: undefeated 13-0 champ.
were talking first 8 fights

I dont about that. Wonderboy is very crafty. Dint he smash hendricks who was better than kos? Kos was in the top 10 anyway. Prime kos was good but his prime lasted for a very short period.
 
Thr only shit opinion are claims like gsp is Goat. Maybe the animal perhaps but he is no GOAT.

The only people who think GSP isn't GOAT are PED lovers and delusional retards who think Fedor is GOAT.

There's a reason the vast majority of MMA journalists, ranking sites, fans, and fighters consider GSP GOAT
 
Kenneth WIlliams

Check him out on fight finder. Wasnt very succesful though

Gotta agree about Pawel....

Can you imagine your first MMA fight ever being against Big Nog? (who had a 25-3-1 record at the time).
