Obviously all mma fighters train and do a little bit of everything, but clearly a few guys are real experts in their area alone, while lacking quality in other arts. Here are some examples:
Maia - this is my #1 choice, he´s BJJ is from a different world, the best we´ve seen inside the UFC but his striking is absolute crap.
Conor - great striker but his ground skills are bad. The fact most of his losses were by submission says a lot. But I just don´t think his ground game sucks as bad as Maia´s striking.
Wonderboy - definetely an expert in his karate style... I´m not sure about his grappling and ground game, so maybe someone here could shed a light. He trained with Weidman so maybe it´s not as bad as I think and the fact he survived that Woodley Guillotine after he landed that bomb is a good sign that perhaps he shouldn´t be on this list. What do you guys think? Is Wonderboy really one dimensional?
Barboza - Explosive striker with vicious power. But his ground game is bad and he´s been finished on the ground a few times, not showing good defense.
Khabib - An awesome wrestler. Although he had a KO victory in the ufc, his hands are crappy.
Any other examples of great one dimensional guys with a huge gap between their best and worst skills???
Thoughts???
