Unranked Fighters that are plain fun to watch?

[Sickplicity]

So I decided to rewatch the Joey Beltran vs. Igor Pokrajac.

I feel like these two will never be ranked into the top 15 of the division, but man that was one hell of a fight to watch last night just to get the blood pumping before the Main Card for the TUF: Smashes Finale.

They were both bringing it like they both had everything to lose...(Which they kinda did in terms of remaining in the UFC) But still, awesome war, I wouldn't mind seeing both of them stay in the UFC a while longer just to have some fun fights like that.

Are there any fighters that you guys admire watching to fight regardless they'll never really solidly make it to the top 15 of the division?

As fun as it is to watch someone like Matt Brown, I don't think he can make it to the top 15 of the division. I mean he could prove me wrong at this point seeing as how he's quietly riding a 4 fight winning streak. But I don't see him getting past any fighters in the top 15 of the division.

What are your thoughts?

HD, Hunt, Struve, and i'm not sure if he's still active, but James Irvin was the king of unranked entertaining fighters.

Matt browns one of my favorite fighters you don't have to be a world champ to be entertaining. In fact lost of my favorite fighters are lower ranked guys.

I've always thought the general consensus of the term "ranked" fighters mainly applies to top 10?

 

[Tins]

HD, Hunt, Struve, and i'm not sure if he's still active, but James Irvin was the king of unranked entertaining fighters.

I always thought of Chris Lytle that way. He was so much fun to watch!
