Unranked fighters Vs The Champ of their the division

[BobblyStruggles]

Which unraked fighter of all the UFC's weight classes do you think has the skills to beat their champion and could possibly be their nightmare matchup? Add on and elaborate why you think that specific fighter could cause major issues for the champ?

REQUIREMENTS:
- The fighter you picked has never been ranked in any of the UFC's divisions. Meaning they never had a previous rank in the division, fighters who had a previous rank in the division and lost it don't count.
- Unranked, meaning outside the top 15.
- It could be a new prospect or an old veteran, as long as they've never been ranked or currently have one.
- The fighter must at least have 1 fight in the UFC promotion and is still under contract with them.
- They could be coming off a lost or a win, it doesn't matter.

THE CHAMPIONS:

WOMEN'S DIVISIONS:
- Women's strawweight: Weili Zhang

- Women's flyweight: Valentina Shevchenko

- Women's bantamweight:

MEN'S DIVISIONS:
- Flyweight: Deiveson Figueiredo

- Bantamweight(Side note, since the disqualification is causing some confusion I put both champs and you're able to pick matchups for both) : Aljamain Sterling and Petr Yan

- Featherweight: Alexander Volkanovski

- Lightweight: Khabib Nurmagomedov

- Welterweight: Kamaru Usman

- Middlewieght: Isreal Adesanya

- Light Heavyweight: Jan Blachowicz

-Heavyweight: Stipe Miocic

Khabib is retired.

Tatiana Suarez isn't ranked at the moment (more due to inactivity) but I believe she beats Zhang if she's healthy.

All i know is there's alot of unranked killers in the LW division

 

[Jose Beehive]

I'm gonna go with Raoni Barcelos fucking up both Yan and Sterling

 

[Slatersan]

This post requires too much thinking.

 

[TheMessiah]

In before everyone spams Chimaev

 

[ExitLUPin]

BW: Barcelos could beat Aljo

MW: Muradov has a better chance against Izzy than most currently ranked MWs

WW: Chimaev murks Usman

FW: Topuria with a few more fights possibly Ismagulov now

SW: Suarez ragdolls Weili

 

[BobblyStruggles]

Khabib is retired.

Sorry I was debating on putting him in, but I couldn't skip out on the LW division.

 

[Jose Beehive]

iirc he was ranked 15th at a point.
EDIT:

I remember seeing him on the Glover/Santos card. Dude looks insanely skilled and has a lot of potential for future title fights.

I know Fiziev looks very promising, but idk about him agaisnt Khabib. There's also Ottman Azaitar who has dynamite in his hands.

Just hope he becomes more active, was really frustrated about his last fight getting cancelled.. Dudes a beast all over.

I haven't seen any of her fights yet. Hopefully she's able to fight soon, she seems to be a very promising undefeated prospect.

 

[Elephino]

Cro Cop's son is on his way to take someone's belt via spinning double head kick.

 

[Johnnny]

Never ranked?

Miguel Baeza
Ilia Topuria
Alexander Romanov

 

[tornado362]

Alexander Romanov springs to mind.

Giga Chikadze looks nice, but not sure he has what it takes due to the killers in his division.

I think not, but it definitely would be an intriguing match-up and one I hope we get to see.

I reread it, and one of the criteria is that they were never ranked. She was before her injury. Good try.

Khabib is retired.
