There are a few good up and coming talent. Dan Hooker, Tai Taiuvasa, Tyson Pedro. Whitaker also as the champ, and i feel like in a few years they will be represented at the top. You never know from where the next star emerges. Before Conor there wasnt really any great irish MMA Fighters, but i feel like there isnt much coming from Ireland so i dont know, the only thing i know is over the years other Countries than the US will catch up and it will be a little more diverse, US will always bring out good fighters but now they have the advantage, especially since the best training facilities are in the US.
