Ramazan Kishev

Country - Russia
Weight Class - Featherweight
Age : 29
Promotion - ACA
Record : 17-3

My personal just bleed god didn't let me down at the weekend with a really hard fought for win against top prospect Askhab Zuliev. Kishev might be a win some/lose some guy if he ever got signed to the UFC, but he always comes to bang and is just never in a boring fight. He said something about wanting to sign a new ACA contract after the fight, which might mean he's potentially available if anyone wanted to move for him now he's on a 3 fight win streak. Guaranteed entertainment from this dude.

never seen a more psychotic looking person. guaranteed to go to jail for a rape soon.
 
Shouldn't Louis Glismann get another fight soon? It's been quiet since his fight in the french org Ares, like 6 months ago.
I saw that he's now a black belt in BJJ.

He was hanging his chin out when pushing forward a bit more than I'd like but once he got on top it was a wrap.

What is your opinion on Magomed Yunusilau? Russian media says that he fights Diego Brandao on Ural FC event in July.
 
Massive lol at Dan Argueta being fed to Jackson the leech on his UFC debut. Didn't even know he was fighting on the card.

What a shambles of a way to take an 0 and ruin a train.

I thought he did okay considering though. It gets him into the UFC and he'll do well at 135.

The way that I see the UFC is that it isn’t a development league. When coming in you should be ready to fight anyone outside of the top 15. I also think that Dan was a late replacement so he knew the risk when signing on

Up a weight class and on short notice, it was just to get that 4 bout UFC deal. Losses don’t mean much in MMA even tho Khabib weirdos want to make it into boxing

Yeah I don’t have a lot of time for guys that sit around and pad their record for years. Loses happen in every sport

Bo Nickal

Country - USA
Weight Class - Middleweight
Age : 26
Promotion - iKon
Record : 1-0

Kind of an obvious one and another one where I'll give a fighter a hype train after their debut. Obviously this is primarily because of his 3 time national champion wrestling background, but usually these wrestling prospects wrestle their way through their early MMA fights, Bo decided to show he has truly devastating power in his hands by blasting his opponent out there with a big 1-2. Yes his opponent was a can and yes his striking still needs a lot of refinement before he makes the step to a higher level, but the level of potential here is undeniable.

Jose Delano

Country - Brazil
Weight Class - Featherweight (when he makes weight anyway)
Age : 25
Promotion - LFA
Record : 11-2

Just to get it out of the way first, this dude needs to start making weight. Failing to do so has cost him being LFA champion twice now. However in those two fights it's worth mentioning that he 50-45'd two good regional fighters in Jonas Bilharinho and Michael Stack, without either fight being particularly competitive to now be on a 10 fight win streak stacking 7 years.

He's a BTT guy, but Delano reminds me a lot of the prime Nova Uniao guys in terms of having absolutely ridiculous takedown defence and using it to allow him to work his kickboxing. His last opponent Michael Stack is a D1 wrestler and managed to briefly get him down about twice in something like thirty attempts. Just excellent framing and turning off the cage and getting his hips away.

Ridiculous cardio too, he can put a pace on and still be going the same pace in round 5 as he was in round 1, although I suppose it's debateable as to whether he could do that or not if he actually made weight.

David Martinez

Country - Mexico
Weight Class - Bantamweight
Age : 23
Promotion - Combate Global
Record : 7-1

This motherfucker hits like a truck. Granted he wasn't in there with the highest level opponent but given how badly he rolled people in the last tournament he was in it might be hard to find people who want to fight him at the moment. All I know was that his countering was on point and he hurt his opponent literally every time he landed clean on him, which is a pretty rare thing at 135.

Azat Maksum

Country - Kazakhstan
Weight Class - Flyweight
Age : 26
Promotion - Octagon
Record : 14-0

Looked like an absolute killer again, taking a can crusher and turning him into a can, by just going after him and demolishing him, taking the back during the takedown and throttling him. Needs to be given consistently good competition at this point.

This chap just caught my eye on the upcoming Octagon 31 card and I'm delighted to see you've already hyped him up. Tapology paints him out as one of the GOATs in my eyes. Looking forward to seeing him in action.

His big, bold, beautiful 0 might put some predators off in here though.

Yeah I'm looking forward to it, if he tools the other dude again then hopefully he can get a quick turnaround on the contender series. That's be 15-0 and would be his 7th consecutive win against someone with a winning record. Mostly finishes too.
 
Latest of Shara Bullet, according to Russian journalists.

Guy tried to kiss girl on an escalator in the mall in Dagestan, Shara saw that and made a remark. Ended in a conflict, guy punched Shara and Shara KO'd him in the end.

@Feniamin do you know what's on the AMC card on Friday? All Tap is showing is Kiamran Abbasov Vs Marif Piraev which is a really nice fight, but I'm sure there's more.

Yeah, they posted full fightcard on social media. Problem is -- it's a poster with only surnames.
I think from fighters on that card Magomed Sulumov was on your top prospects lists.
