Favorite Prospects?

[ArtemV]

Who are your favorite current and upcoming prospects?

I will make a short list of some of mine:

Petr Yan: had a great debut, will fight De Andrade in Moscow
Islam Makhachev: 4-1 in UFC, fights this evening vs Kajan Johnson
Gregor Gillespie: 5-0 in the UFC with 4 straight finishes. Looked dominant.
Tom Duquesnoy: Needs to get bigger/stronger, but still very solid at 135 with a close lose to Stamann

Who else are you looking forward to see more of?

Inb4 Erick Silva making waves

 

[Slatersan]

Erick Silva

 

[Death By Samson]

Zabit Magomedsharipov

 

[ChaelSonnen]

Renato Moicano and Alexander Hernandez. Both future champs.

 

[Squintz]

Hernandez Alexander is 4 ReaaaaaaaaL!!!!? We’ll see tonight.

 

[Amsterdamn]

Zabit, Islam, hulk guy from moldavia

 

[Jordan3399]

Mairbek Taisumov
Antonina Shevchenko
Aleksandar Rakic seems legit after last week

 

[bambammccoy]

There were several 205ers that looked solid on Contender Series.

But to be honest, if you weigh 205+ then you are automatically a prospect to me.

 

[AC1D1K]

Mean hakeem still. Our whole city is so excited for him. At the weigh ins we booed the other guy until our throats were raw and sore

 

[AC1D1K]

Erick Silva

Go to bed

 

[christer]

Dave Terrell

 

[dbader08]

As others in the thread have already mentioned, Houston Alexander.

 

[KeiranMc]

O'Malley

 

[Belhammer]

Big fan of Brad Katona, think he’ll be a contender at 135

 

[quantiqus]

Reyes
Zabit
O'Malley
Rakic

 

[FireKidWS]

Tom Duquesnoy

The guy to watch. If he gets another win he’ll be the talk of town.

I saw him live in Kansas City and thought he stole the show

 

[Slatersan]

Taisumov is my real choice. I met him a couple times in Thailand. Super cool dude. Definitely has been putting in the work to make it. Zabit is a monster too.

 

[Franklin U.]

He's not a prospect but I like the way Branch has been looking. Dark horse for an ever regressing UFC middleweight division.

 

[OneManGang]

Igoriavjev Muglisamarovsnetziovski. Period.

 

[Turkleton]

Erick Silva. this kid is gonna be the future.

for real though, I still hope Mickey Gall has a good career. I like that kid
