Ware's have to be toughest, because when it comes to toughest, you have to take into relative abilities too.
I think Ware has a good argument for the toughest opening fights as is, but if you take into consideration what Ware was as a fighter, and the level of his opponents, that HAS to be the toughest stretches of four fights into your UFC career.
While people can try to dismiss, Anderson SIlva started his UFC career against Leben, followed by Rich Franklin, who was on an 8 fight win streak, with 22-1 record at the time...
Yeah, it's Silva and he won, but that doesn't mean it was an easy start...
Well, SIlva was not really a contender nor a finished product.Clear very tough, and then he was champ so it didn’t get any better. Caveat is that Anderson came in as neatly the finished article and had a lot of experience in a comparable organization.
Alvarez, Melendez, Gaethje and Chandler have rough resumes as well but they came in as ready-made contenders.

"I made DC cry in the gym."If I remember correctly, he didn't back up his trash talk at all.
