Who’s not in the UFC that you want/should be in UFC
For me a few names stick out
- Vadim Nemkov: first I’ll go with the obvious one. He’s Fedor’s (the greatest to never fight in UFC) top student and his last loss was against Jiri 10 years ago in a weird Rizin fight with 10 rounds which he gassed at the end and retired on the stool. Since then he’s been absolutely dominating everyone in his way, lowkey the PFL are trying to avoid giving him Ngannou as they are worried he’d beat Ngannou. Guaranteed top 3 UFC LHW if he joins
- Ilay Barzilay: bit of a lesser known guy for people that don’t watch Karate Combat or LFA. He’s the guy that was supposed to fight Bryce but then Bryce pulled out because the poster made him look gay lmao. Very well rounded and undefeated 7-0 in pro MMA, 5-1 in the amateurs (collectively he’s on a 12 fight win streak). BJJ but has striking too. I feel a fight against Bryce can be a good introductory fight for him especially as Bryce unranked now. Also the fact Natan was cut a few months back opens the spot for another Israeli fighter (and this guy is better than Natan)
- Paul Hughes: we saw how close of a match he had against Usman (some even arguing he won) plus he has the personality/charisma to become a superstar if he keeps getting better. With McGregor not coming back he’s the future of Ireland
- Khasan Magomedsharipov: the younger brother of Zabit, similar build and style yet he’s only 24. With the success and popularity of his older brother I think he can be a fan favourite almost instantly. People love the sanda/kickboxing style, look at how popular Shara is and I think this kid has a higher ceiling.
