Top prospects turned to busts

Vitor. Should have been an all time great. After his sister was kidnapped he never took mma seriously again. Should have beaten Silva and didn't even stay in the gym to spar, instead running around with some brasil nuts shopping. Silva knew that the time was right. He use to be scared to death of Vitor

love semtex. one of all time faves despite him never reaching that elite status. dude can bang with the top strikers. and hes got a hell of a chin despite being in like 60 mma fights
 
I thought Todd Duffee could bang w/Brock Lesnar.

Brandon Thatch looked like he could have had more success than KO'ing unknown guys.
 
Josh Grispi

Maybe injuries are to blame.
Maybe emotional or legal issues.
The guy should have been at the top for a few years.
He actually had a title fight scheduled against Aldo at one point, but Aldo pulled out to injury.
 
Sad how many people called former champions of main orgs prospects who were busts.
 
Good list so far.

I knew Erick Silva would be mentioned soon, and Lando’s deal is getting worse all the time.

I’d also add Korean Superboy (too soon?)
