Bad news for Cory Sandhagen?

[u/Chocoeclair189]

Xiaonan seems to have the best chance at cracking the top 5 in 2021. Jiri, Holland, and Chimaev will be tested in their next fights for sure. Sandhagen is already proven

[u/hellsbells1981]

Saw some people predicting Calvin would become the 2021 fighter of the year, safe to say he got some work to do sheesh.

[u/mesy92]

Cyril Gane won

[u/Destr0yer621]

Alexander romanov is a insane prospect nobody talks about him

[u/dmkicksballs13]

I actually enjoy shit like this. r/mma is not very good at prospect picking. They also tend to insanely overrate them as if they're gonna be champ within two years like everyone's Conor.

[u/Headkiick]

Hit that different level of fighters

[u/UnblurredLines]

Didn't Holland fight a pair of bouncers already this year?

Also, shoutout to André Fili for being the only fighter to make two appearances in this video.

[u/Rtyfyh1]

holland and chimaev getting starched confirmed
