Fighters that you would really like to succeed, but fear they probably won't

[AldoByMurder]

Title says it all really.

I'll get the ball rolling with Jim Miller. I think he is an awesome fighter, very well rounded and has the heart of a lion. He seems like a down to earth guy and is more than deserving of being a champion in my eyes. I just fear he will always struggle against the top 2 guys in the division.

I want to see Mein go places, but I doubt he will. I really enjoy seeing him fight.

 

[bhendo]

I don't know, Ian McCall is giving me that vibe right now. I sincerely hope I'm wrong though, I'm a big fan.

 

[EJRMAN513]

Jorge Masvidal.

 

[coffeeholic]

Lee Murray

 

[MMAcolyte]

Frankie Edgar. I know he's already been champion but I fear he won't recapture the title

 

[jeremi87]

Miocic
Barboza
Davis

 

[ravifreitas]

Uncle Creepy, Jacare, Chiesa.

 

[Hemmmmmo]

Edson Barboza

 

[Joker Jiujitsu]

Uncle Creepy, Edson Barboza, Jacare Souza, and Roy Nelson probably won't make it to the pinnacle

 

[Fight To Win]

I want to see Joe Lauzon be a champion and I think he deserves to be, he's a tough dude who obviously works his ass off and he always goes for the finish. Same thing with guys like Matt Brown and Nick Diaz. I want to see them on top of the world but fear they won't get there.

I was going to say Nick Diaz. But being the TS, and a whitebelt, I figured the thread would be over before it had even started.

Lee Murray

You win this game.

 

[Minnja]

Succeed as in become champion? Or succeed as in stick in the UFC for a long time and be relevant?

Phil Davis. Being a Penn Stater, I was so high on this guy when he first came to the UFC and after he beat Gus and Boetsch, I thought for sure he would be the next big thing at LHW. The Lil Nog fight, even though he won, and definitely the Rashad fight have made me question him big time though.
