All have looked impressive. Whose your favorite of these young prospects?
 
Based on viewing their performances: Polyana Viana, Aldrich and Suarez. Not as familiar with Xiaonan as I should be, so I will probably correct that this week.
 
Suarez is legit, the rest are mediocre
 
Tatiana Saurez has the best chance.

After what she did to Pereira in her last fight and how she submitted Amanda Cooper. Her wrestling and ground game is at a high level.

If her striking get at the level of her grappling, she could be a real contender.
 
Can't pick one. They all look promising, yet they all look like they need to make significant Improvements in certain areas of the game.

This. I think Suarez is the standout among those three. As for Xiaonan, she's good but I'm still unsure about her commitment. Is she willing to uproot herself from China? Granted she trained at JacksonWink for her last fight, but she can't sit and wait for the UFC to return to China again.
 
MacKenzie "Whatcha" Dern has a ton of hype....
 
Mackenzie Dern is the future champion. So, Im gonna say her.
 
Suarez or Viana at 115

Kassem goes up and has a very interesting future at 125
 
Suarez, as a Joanna fan I was kind of relieved when her career was sidelined for a year by injury.

Viana is probably going to replace Cynthia Danasdottir as the boss's new favorite.

I'm a fan of Aldrich, also hoping her pal Yoder pulls something off against Dern.
 
Suarez and only Suarez when it comes to skill. A couple others will make it far due to marketability.

Shit, forgot about Yoder. I also hope she does. I dislike the Dern hype.

All have looked impressive. Whose your favorite of these young prospects?

Viana: WOOD
Dern: WOOD
Saurez: Nah
Albu: Wood
Cooper: WOOD
Kaseem: Nah
Botelho: Probably Wood
Aldrich: Wood
Xiaonan: Nah

Wait, what was the question again?
 
Albu is a hilariously awesome. She doesn't bother with petty things like defense when fighting. She just wants to bangs and goes 110% all fight no matter how much she gets tag. Unfortunately, I don't think she has the skills to ever crack the top 10. She hasn't looked to have changed her game at all either.

Too lazy to comment on all the others. Instead, I'll just say Saurez and Aldrich are the most dangerous of all the prospects listed. Amanda cooper also seemed very strong, but it was Magana she was smoothering.. Xi is my pick to crack top 10.

Dern is a the worst compared to almost every else on the list based on their actual fights and not accolades imo.
 
Suarez is the only one who's looked impressive.
Serious question: what is Amanda Cooper doing on that list?
