Again... one missing... as I refuse to add PED fighters into my rankings.. I realize Jon is "currently clean" but Im so over him..
-
1
- Jon Jones
- "Bones"
- 27-1-0, 1 NC
-
2
- Thiago Santos
- "Marreta"
- 22-12-0, 1 NC
-
hes going to be a GREAT heavyweight in future..
-
3
- Jan Błachowicz
- 29-10-1
-
I think when Jones moves this guy could be a world champion..OR..I think he could actually become a really good addition to Heavyweight roster eventually..
-
4
- Dominick Reyes
- "The Devastator"
- 12-4-0
-
5
- Tyson Pedro
- 10-5-0
-
I felt like Pedro/ Machida/Reyes/ and Oezdemir all deserve equal mention.. Id like to see Pedro (like alot of Aussie fighters) come out of the cumfy surroundings of nearly always fighting in Australia and show us what hes got Internationally.. That is a thing that bugs me about some of these guys.. Pedro and Reyes both clearly have a belt possibility in there future.. Where machida provides a swan song tour if you will...
-
6
- Anthony Smith
- "Lionheart"
- 37-19-0
-
Just something about him... Im just not a true beeliever yet.. he jumped quickly once hitting the UFC scene and did well against Jones.. but I just dont know
-
7
- Glover Teixeira
- 33-9-0
-
I think Glovers got a few fights left if I am being honest with myself.
-
8
- Volkan Oezdemir
- "No Time"
- 19-7-0
-
9
- Corey Anderson
- "Overtime"
- 18-6-0, 1 NC
-
Guys a class act and a complete grinder... but he doesnt appear to have that "kill gene" and leaves his chin out there far too much.. Real good journeyman tho..just havnt seen a ton of "growth" out of him tho..
-
10
- Johnny Walker
- 21-8-0, 1 NC
-
Another guy.. jumped into scene and just seen his stock skyrocket,..,makes me leary,... Im going to have to see more before I simply "jump on"... and I look forward to it too..
-
11
- Misha Cirkunov
- 15-9-0
-
12
- Phil Davis
- "Mr. Wonderful" | 24-7-0, 1 NC
-
Cant stand his style.. but Phil Davis gets it done and thats what counts..
-
13
- Ion Cutelaba
- "The Hulk" | 17-10-1, 1 NC
-
This kids got a massive ceiling... if he can stay clean and stay on path I really think hes going to be good.. hes not a "all around" type fighter.. is what he is.. Would love to see him and santos.. possibly Costa in future.. just big brawlers who can really bang..
My Summary
