UFC Prospects Game Plans

fellas as of right now there's so many prospects in the UFC it seems like every two or three cards we get a new big Prospect that's in the UFC and considering we've got so many prospects and there's so many questions to be answered I thought it'd be the perfect time on how to beat every major Prospect in the UFC so if I to make a game plan to be all the major prospects in the UFC what would it be now when I say major prospects I mean like not a ranked fighter not somebody who's deep into the rankings because then they're more of a contender than a prospect and I'm not just going to go through every single fighter on the contender series I'm talking about the main Prospect ects people who still a lot of have a lot of questions to be answered and just how to beat all these prospects so let me know your thoughts on these prospects and the game plan but we're going there with the first which is Shara puty magedov definitely one of the biggest prospects currently in the UFC 13 and0 and it's burst onto the scene and he's definitely one of the biggest prospects I think he's just been scheduled to fight at UFC Abu Dhabi against maau which is going to be fun to see so I'm going to go through the pros and cons first and then I'll go through the actual game plan so obviously the pros of shut magov I mean he's a really good kickboxer he's a f fantastic kickboxer one of the best unranked Strikers in the UFC and he seems pretty much Unstoppable in the UFC or Unstoppable on the feet um at least from what he's shown in the UFC and outside the UFC I'm not saying he's like top 15 best strikers in the UFC but his kickboxing ability is amazing his ability to just pick people apart like he did with Bruno Silva and even in his last fight against trolle and he's durable he's shown that he's able to go three rounds he's shown that he's able to go the distance he's tough his nails so sh put to magov it's going to be very hard for this dude to get out struck on the feet when he clams the rankings when he gets close to that ranking area and the more unranked dudes that this dude faces you know it's going to be difficult for anyone to beat this dude on the feet so he is very very tough to beat on the feet and he's durable but the cons of Shar put of I mean obviously his Tak down defense this dude was getting held up against the cage for a significant amount of time by Antonio troli who was a can that was put in there to give sharpa to magov a free win even Bruno Silva and I'm not calling Bruno Silva a can necessarily but he's more of a strike and he was able to do a lot of significant control time against sharo magov in his debut and that just makes you think how much sh Putin is going to struggle when he does face an actual wrestler in the middleweight division because there's a lot of wrestlers in this division a lot of wrestling prospects I know Bon nickel caugh him out that's a nightmare match up for sh Putin and he does struggle with grappling like I said even with KS as well so you can only imagine what somebody with elite wrestling is going to do so the game plan that I would do to beat shuttin magedov is to just wrestle that's your best game plan I'm not going to make it over complicated it's simply to just wrestle this dude avoid striking with him close the distance at every opportunity you don't want to be fighting at Sharp range he's going to destroy your legs he's going to attack you with those body kicks he's going to attack you with everything out the kitchen sink so just try and close the distance to every opportunity and use your striking to set up the takedowns use your striking to set up the takedowns engageing striking for a little bit of time just to set up those takedowns everything you can do to try and get in the clinch make it ugly hold him against the cage wrestle any sort of grappling you can do against sharers and mag you want to do you don't want to be fighting this guy on the feet you don't want to be engaging in a striking match up unless you are setting up the takeown because we've seen this two times already in the UFC we've seen it before the UFC it hasn't worked out exactly well for anyone and like I said he is a fantastic kickboxer and he seems pretty much Unstoppable on the feet so anything you can do to take him down take him to the mat because he's probably one of the only dagani Fs in the UFC that caught and wrestle he's got all his eggs into one basket and that strike in really good Striker really [ __ ] wrestler anything you can do to take him down or just hold him against the cage and make it ugly like troli tried doing that is your game plan to beat sharpa then we've got B Nicholl another massive Prospect who seems to be really favored by the UFC still don't he had that main card opportunity at UFC 300 he's six and home and obviously he's kind of like the opposite of shut magov because the pros of b nickel is his wrestling he's one of the best wrestlers in the UFC comes from a really high level wrestling background and even though he hasn't really fought any top opposition yet he's already shown that he is a really good wrestler and he's also great at setting up big shots because of the takedown threat there's a lot of Grapplers in the UFC that have grappling but then when when they're on the feet they don't really have anything B Nichols done a really good job at setting up big shots on the feet because of the takedown threat we saw it against Val Woodburn I know he not the best opposition we saw it before the UFC because he's got such a big threat of the takedown he's always able to land big shots on the feet and he seems to hit pretty hard um but the cons of B nickl is he does have a questionable and potential gas tank we don't know how good his gas tank is because we haven't seen him go the full distance yet but we for all we know he might have a gas tank issue in the UFC so that's something we have to look out for and like I said he is a bit of an awkward Striker he's not really a high level Striker you can kind of tell that he's quite new to MMA which is the way that he moves he is a bit of an awkward Striker not the most technical it seems like all striking is genuinely just to set takedowns up and he's very predictable you know what he's going to do you know when he's going to go for a strike you know when he's going to go for the taked down codyy Brundage seem to have figured it out in the first round but obviously Nichol was able to take him down so he is quite a predictable guy we don't know how good his gas tank is and he is a bit of an awkward Striker not the most technical so the game plan to beat b nickel would be to survive the early rounds listen b nickel is going to be at his most dangerous early on his gas tank is the best he's fresh he knows what he wants to do just survive the early rounds and just work on takedown submission defense only Bon not bonck codyy brage was doing a decent job at that just survive the early rounds I know it's easy said than done just work on take down defenses submission defense don't focus on trying to engage in a fight but then just go ham in the last round when it's round three just go ham land a shot when he shoots for a takedown be prepared to you know shoot those knees up pick him apart on the feet go ham in the final round pray that his gas tank he's already wor out a little bit pray that he's not at his best piece him up on the feet and just go H in that final round and look for a finish because it's going to be difficult to beat Bonn by decision in the UFC unless he faces somebody like Chris Curtis who has Elite takedown defense survive the early rounds work on takedown and submission defense only and go absolutely haming the last round to to go for the Finish then we've got pton talber definitely one of the biggest if not the biggest Prospect right now the bantamweight Division 9 and0 had that really good performance against Cameron Simon in his last fight KO yamori in like two seconds um so pton tber the con the pros of Pon Alber is I mean he's a very technical and sharp boxer I mean he's shown in the contender series and so far in the UFC when he fought Cameron Simon he's a really Technical and Sh boxer he just walks forward picks people apart lands some big shots and he's pretty much Untouchable so far when it comes to boxing on the feet um he is very durable as well he's shown that he's able to go three rounds so far um in the in the contender series and even when he has rounds that don't go his way when he's been out grappled before he can come back and Ste still walk forward and make it effective so he's very durable and he can also figure opponents out really quickly like I said he hasn't won every single round in the UFC or the contender series there has been rounds that his lost and he's just been able to figure opponents out and get the win from there so he's a very smart fighter with good fight IQ but the cons of pton talber is he has struggled with pressure in the past in the contender series I forgot who he fought but he fought somebody in the contender series and there was a lot of grappling offense and he lost the first two rounds because of the grappling so he's definitely struggled and like I said he doesn't do too well against heavy Grapplers that seems to be his crypto night so far um he has been able to bounce back from those early rounds where he struggled and get the win but that's just something you got to keep in mind he struggles with pressure he he lacks to walk forward so when he's not the one walking forward he does struggle a bit and he does struggle with grappling so the the game plan to beat pton Talbert is to have a good gas tank the only reason the other guys in the contender series couldn't beat Pon tab is because they were absolutely gassed out after the second round I'm pretty sure he fought Tracy ctis his brother and he was doing really well against Pon tabber and the only reason he kind of faded away was because of his gas tank so you have to make sure that you have a really good gas tank going into a fight with Pon tabbert you have to have a heavy grappling approach and waste a lot of time even though Pon Talbert's submission game isn't bad you you've got to go with a heavy grappling approach you can't strike with this dude you've got to make it ugly make it boring waste a lot of time um keep it on bottom position just hold him against the cage anything you can do to West Ham with grappling against this dude you've got to do because he's already shown that's a weakness in the contender series and watch out for the knees patent Albert's takedown defense is really good he showed it against Cameron Simon he likes to throw the knee up when he's going when he's defending the takedowns and he's landed a lot of knees so you have to watch out the knees when you are going for the takedown because he does a very good job at defending takedowns with his knees so that's how I would personally right again plan to beat pton talber then we've got and you're probably going to laugh at this one but paty Pim I understand he's not the same Prospect he's not someone that we think is's going to be a future Champion is kind of like a meme fighter but if paty Pim was a dagestani dude and he was bursting onto the UFC in the way that he did with a record of 21- three people would be happying him up I get it he doesn't have the most intimidating personality all the most intimidating face all the most intimidating style but I'm going to count him as a prospect because he's undefeated in the UFC and if he can beat Bobby green that's a big win so the pr of Patty pimer is that he's powerful he's really big for the division he shot it against Tony Ferguson he can crack Paddy Pim is really powerful for this division he's a big dude I'm not saying he's got the best technique to land those shots but without a doubt he's very powerful he's got a solid Jiu-Jitsu base we saw that in cage Warriors we've seen it in his first couple of Fs in the UFC he does have a really solid Jiu-Jitsu based and not even just his Jiu-Jitsu he's Judo as well his ability to latch up submissions he's got really good Jiu-Jitsu and like I said he's just really big and strong for the division he's a big lightweight he is jacked in this division even though on the offseason and he doesn't look the same he is big and he's strong for the division and he's a really big and powerful lightweight but the cons of Patty Pim he has all head movement you know we sh we saw that against Jared Gordon and other fights in his first UFC debut against Luigi vendramin he has no head movement it's not hard to land shots on paty pinet it's not hard to crack that chin of his because he doesn't move his head um especially in that Jared Gordon fight he was just getting picked apart like a pinball machine and it doesn't really take him much to out strike him he's not the most technical Striker he's powerful and he has good body kicks everything but it doesn't take much to out strike him you feed him to any somewhat decent Striker he's probably going to struggle on the feet and he does tend to panic takedown quite regularly when you crack him with a big shot he tends to shoot for a lot of takedowns we saw it in his UFC debut we saw it against Vargas the first big shot that he got taken by Vargas he shot for an immediate Tak down um so he does do a lot of panic takedown so the game plan to beat paty piml is to just use shot boxing on the feet out striking with boxing on the feet he struggles with boxing he struggles on the feet just use St shot boxing to out strike him on the feet and look out for those body kicks and because of those body kicks you can't really let him fight at his range pressure him don't let him back you up against the cage don't let him destroy you with those body kicks back him up pressure him don't let him fight at his range make sure he's the one on the back foot like Jared Gordon did a good job of and just avoid clinches like I said he's got really good Judo he's really good at fighting in the clinch so avoid any clinch you can look out for the takedowns look out for the grappling exchanges and just piece him up on the feet and that is what I think Bobby Green's going to do this weekend which is why I pick Bobby green to win I really do think he's going going to beat piml then we've got quite possibly the biggest lightweight Prospect right now MC Ori 13 and one he's a really good lightweight Prospect he sh that in his last fight against Elvis brener the pros of MC orai is that he has a Relentless grappling pace and he's kind of like the morab of the lightweight division we saw it in his last fight we've seen it before he has got this Relentless grappling Pace he just shoots takedown after takedown after Tak down he just just seems un stubble when it comes to takedowns he's so good at getting people to the mat and controlling people with his wrestling and he must be exhausting to fight this dude he has a Relentless grappling pace and he is dangerous as well he's got good ground and pound his submission game is really effect effective as well so he's kind of just like the morab of the lightweight division but the one thing that morab has that he doesn't is a gas tank he does have a questionable gas tank does m beara he really did look out like faded in that third round when he fought Elvis brener he didn't seem to be the best cardio wise so his gas tank is something you've got to pay to attention to and he has average standup and he is very hitable Elvis breny was Landing big shots on the feet he's got quite average stand up he is very hitable he's not the best Striker he's more of a Relentless Grappler but he is quite hitable on the feet and he does have quite average standup so the game plan to beat M Mobai just let him rack do you for the first round or two don't try and engage in the first couple of rounds let him rack do you with good submission defense let him do what he wants to do let him get the control time let him win the first couple of rounds and then in the later rounds that's where you want to counter with big shots look for him when he's shooting for a takedown be prepared for him to shoot to panic takedowns defend with knees defend with everything look out for the sprawls um just just count with big shots on the feet and go for a finish because like I said in the last round his gas tank a going to be the best he's going to be his most vulnerable especially after all the grappling so that's when you want to go for the kill coun with big shots try and land a big shot on the feet go for the finish on the feet and try and get that finish later on in the fight because like I said Elvis Brennan was able to land Big Shots against M Beck by in that third round so just try and do everything you can to finish it in the third and just let him get it done in the first and the second Joe Pier quite possibly the most hard-hitting middleweight right now 13 and three it's like an absolute truck the pros of Joe Piper like I just said he's extremely powerful this dude it just takes one in his last fight when he fought Mar Andre barol it just took one shot and that was when Mark Andre barriot was like defending as well it just took one shot to get a face first face plant KO um he's a really well I won't say he's a really decent Striker but he's a decent Striker he's not bad on the feet he's not one of these guys that kind of relies too much on his power he is quite a technical Striker and he does have underrated submission game not a one trick py not someone that you can just simply shoot take Downs against he does have good submissions and I think his submission Game and his Jiu-Jitsu is quite underrated in the UFC but the cons he is very dismissive of opponents he's a very arrogant type of dude he always looks past opponents he did it to Mark Andre barryland he did it to Jack Hansson he was looking past Jack Hansson and he lost that fight so he is quite dism dismissive of opponents and he does tend to look past opponents a lot and he's just not the most elite Striker technical wise he got out struck by Jack Hanson which isn't a good look because I'm not going to say that Jack Hansson is a terrible Striker but he's not one of the best in the division I mean he's known for his grappling and his Jiu-Jitsu so the fact that he got out struck by Jack Hansson exposed a lot of flaws in his striking game so I game plan to beat Joe pyer would be to just be extremely defensive in the first round and let him take it he's going to be his most dangerous in that first round and he's going to be looking to knock you out be extremely defensive and when I say extremely defensive I don't just mean you know I don't just mean do what Mark hre baral does I mean be extremely defensive head movement making you making sure your gloves are up everything you can do to be defensive in that first round and stop him from Landing that big right hand you have to do be extremely defensive or else he's going to put you to sleep and also be cautious like I said but keep it technical on the feet you know keep it technical don't try and engage in a dog fight try and keep it traditional try and keep it technical because he's not the most technical Striker and just be cautious about the shots that he's going to land and just try and keep it on a as a technical striking matchup and fake the takedowns as well you want to keep him guessing you want to make his strike and his ineffective as possible to fake the take Downs keep him guessing anything you can do to make his striking as least effective as possible so that you can just out strike him across a couple of rounds is your best opportunity and of course being offensive against Joe pyer that would be my game plan against Joe piper then we have Carlos soberg I know he's ranked and I said I guess a lot of these ranked guys aren't really prospects but I'd still count him as a prospect he's only good win is Alonzo Manfield so the pros of caros soberg is that he's well-rounded he's got really good submissions he's really good on the feet and he's well-rounded he's not somebody that you can kind of just choose to take the fight anywhere with because of how well-rounded he is and he is dangerous everywhere the fight goes as well he's got good submissions he's got very good striking as well as he showed in his last fight against Alonzo Manfield and he's really accurate he's good at Landing big shots he's very accurate with his punches again as he showed against Alonzo mfield when he just sprinted forward and you know Kos was able to land that big shot he's accurate he's well-rounded but there are some Cons with Carlos orberg as well he's not just amazing he is very hitable he showed early on in his UFC career he is a very hitable dude when it gets past the second and the third round specifically his gas tank is very questionable as well it seems like he's not really able to go three rounds at a high Pace he has got a very questionable gas tank and again his head movement isn't all there it doesn't seem like it's that hard to hit caros zuberg so hitable questionable gas tank the game plan to beating Carlos soberg is to Simply have a good gas tank you want to make sure you can push a p him in in those last rounds when he's you know out of there when he's a bit wobbled when he's a bit faded that's when you want to have the best gas tanks you want to make sure you've got a good good gas tank at least for three rounds straight turn up the output as the fight progresses like I said he does tend to kind of Fade Away in those later rounds that's when you want to be the most dangerous turn up the output as the fight progresses become increasingly more dangerous to the fight progresses that you C that you can get the finish and have shot boxing throughout like I said it's going to be hard to out strike caroso because he's a really good Striker but as long as you have some shot boxing and you can land shots on a hitable guy like him that's your best opportunity beating caros suberg look for the finish in the second and the third round turn up the outputs specifically in the later rounds and make sure you've got shot boxing throughout the fight that would be best opportunity to beat carber and also land some body shots early on to try and make him even you know ruin his gas tank even more Jean Silva this dude has just burst onto the scene in his past couple of fights he was a big Prospect coming into that fight with Charles Jan and then he goes out there knocks out Charles jadan then he goes out there and destroys Drew Dober so it's obvious that he's very powerful Jean Silva is known for his power he's a very powerful dude all it takes is one from this dude and he can just turn the fight around he's a very hard hitting featherweight I don't know if he's going to be staying at featherweight or lightweight but he hits like a truck and he's an absolute dog he's Shing that fight with Drew Dober it's going to take a lot to put Jean silver out he made it an absolute war with Drew Dober and he made him look like he'd just been to a war and I mean like a literal War as well from the the way that Drew doble was looking in that fight he's an absolute doggish Jean Silva and he's got a good wrestling base a lot of people think he's just onedimensional previously that Charles Jan fight Jean Silva was shown that he has really good takedowns as well he's really good at setting up the takedowns as well when you think he's going to come up top with a right hand he shoots that double luck takedown so he does have a good wrestling base I'm not saying he's a really high level Grappler but his wrestling base has been effective in the past the cons he's that Elite Grapplers will nullify his game it's hard to think of any serious cons when he's so early on in his career but I will say from the style that Jee Sila has any Elite Grapplers will nullify his game that's why I think he should stay in the featherweight division because the lightweight division that's full of Grapplers that's probably where he has the lowest chance so I'd say the game Planes don't let him push the pressure he loves pushing the pressure he did it against Weston Wilson he did it against Charles jadan he was doing it against Drew Dober don't let him put the pressure on you you want to be putting the pressure on him that makes his striking less effective he doesn't have the threat of the takedown then try and back him against the cage as much as you can and just try and initiate grappling whenever you can I'm not saying he's an easy guy to out grapple he might have good wrestling he trains at fighting nerds which has a lot of good Grapplers there but just try and initiate the grappling test out his taked down defense hold him against the cage and just avoid a dog fat you don't want to be in a dog fat with Jean Silva because he's going to win he's made for dog fights don't initiate a dog fight don't initiate a scrap try and keep it technical but Back Him Up Against the Cage make him ineffective and just initiate grappling whenever you can because that's your best opportunity at nullifying his game then we've got Roman kopilov really good kickboxer in the middleweight division kind of I guess you can say got Thro checked by Anthony Hernandez but he bounced back with a win over Caesar armida the pros he has got World crash striking he's got really good striking does Roman copy love he's really good at setting up big shots as well when you think he's going to go for a leg Ki L one up top and knocks you out he's really got good boxing as well he's just a world class Striker he seems to be improving as well we saw his last fight against Caesar almea now don't get me wrong Roman kopilov is not a good Grappler but he showed in that last fight against Caesar almea he seems to have worked on his wrestling a little bit because that was his game plan so his wrestling is sort kind of improving as well and like I said just great at setting up shots when you think he's going for a body kick he's going for a head kick when you think he's going you know down bottom he's going up top he's really good at setting up shots and he has World crft striking but the cons he does lack ground game I mean Anthony Hernandez showed it but I know Anthony Hernandez is an elite Grappler but Roman kbov does lack ground game when he faces an elite Grappler that's when he's going to struggle and that's when he's going to lose the ground game of Roman kopov does need a lot of work and he does tend to tire out in round two on round three that fight with Caesar ala he didn't even do that much I mean he took him down and held him down for a little bit against a guy who just came to the UFC from Glory Kickboxing and he looked exhausted in that second and the third round so he's definitely got a lot of problems going on with the gas tank because he tends to tire out in like round two and round three so my game plan would be to attack the body early and fake the takedowns you have to fake the takedowns cuz he knows he's um behind when it comes to grappling keep him guessing on the feet make it ineffective and attack the body because you want his gas tank to be as low as possible come the later rounds so attack the body F the takedowns um turn up the grappling pressure in round two and round three your best opportunity of beating Roman cou of is to Grapple turn up the grappling pressure in round two and round three shoot the takedowns initiate the clinches anything you can do to keep him guessing and initiate the grappling get him on his back you want to do that against Roman kopov and also fake the take down to land up top if you are going to be on the feet with Roman kopilov fake the takedown make him worried about the takedown get him thinking about the takedown so that you can land big shots on the feet and make your striking more effective so essentially just completely shut out his striking with grappling and if you are going to strike with him make sure you're actually setting up those shots rather than just trying to engage in a striking battle with him that's your best opportunity beting Roman kopov roboman kof's little brother Chase super is also a prospect in the lightweight division looked really good in his last fight 14 and three the pros of Chase Hooper is he's a really good Grappler he sh in his last fight he looked looks like a 17-year-old college student but he's got the strength of like a 50y old on testosterone he's a really good Grappler he's strong he's good at taking people down he's good at ragd dolling people he's kind of like paty piml if he was better and he had good wrestling he's a really good Grappler at his Chase Hooper and he seems to have improved a lot in his last few fights I know he had a bit of a a shaky start to his UFC career which we're going to talk about in a second but he seems to have improved a lot he seems to have a more clear game plan and he seems to be avoiding danger a lot more so he seems to be getting better as a Fed does Chas Hooper but the cons of Chas Hooper he is really slow on the feet he's not a good Striker on the feet he's very very slow I forgot who it was but when he lost on the feet he looked very very I think it was to Steve Garcia on the feet against Steve Garcia he looked really slow um and he's just not that hard to land shots on in the feet and he is very hitable your best opportunity beating Chas Hooper he's just to out strike him on the feet he's slow he's not that hard to hit um but his grappling is what makes him effective so the game plan to beat chess Hooper would simply be pressure him don't let him do the pressuring don't let him look for the takedowns and back you up against the cage you want to be the one pressuring him whilst also looking out for the takedowns and like I said just land big shots on the feet he's not a good Striker if you can land as much big shots on the feet as possible because he is kind of chinny as well I'm not going to say he's extremely chinny but from what we've seen whenever he tanks a big shot on the feet he doesn't really tend to take it well so just try and land big shots and obviously look out for the taked down avoid the clinch any grappling offense from this dude you want to be looking out for and that's your best opportunity of beating CH Super and the guy that has beaten CH Super Steve Garcia 16 and five but he's on a four fight winning streak all of them coming by way of ko and the pros of Steve Garcia is he got really wild and dangerous boxing he's not the most conventional boxer he's not the most technical boxer but he's wild he's dangerous and he's somebody that you don't want to be engaging in a scrap with on the feet he kind of reminds me of a bit like Chris ailia n Diaz's brother not brother but the guy who you know he's around n Diaz kind of looks like him a little bit kind of fat has a very similar fat Style just a wild dangerous boxing approach but the cons of Steve Garcia is he's not the most technical he like I said he's not the most technical dude if you try and keep it Technical and conventional that's your best opportunity beating him on the feet he's also quite dirty as well in his last fight against sunu Choy the out of back of the head shots he was landing and it seems like he kind of relies on a very dirty game plan so he is quite a dirty fighter and I mean he lost to lisis Pena he lost to Violet Bob Ross that says everything you need to know about Steve Garcia the game plan is just to stay technical on the feet don't engage in a dog fight don't let him use his wild boxing and wild striking just to keep it Technical and conventional keep it basic mix it up with the wrestling as well he has lost a few times in the UFC and it seems like his main crypto KN are wrestlers so just mix it up with the wrestling uh take him down and just deal damage as well I'm not saying he's chinny or anything but he definitely s tends to fade the more damage he takes so if you can take him down do a lot of damage with ground and pound or just do damage on the feet that's your best opportunity of of beating Steve Garcia don't let him be the one ruling the fight don't let him be the one pressuring you and just deal damage mix up with the wrestling stay Technical and that's how I would beat Steve Garcia then we've got one of the best unranked featherweights in the world yanders and Brito absolutely destroyed Jack Shaw in his last fight with those leg kicks 17 and three big Prospect the pros of Y Anderson Brito is that he's such a dangerous Striker I mean he's dangerous from everywhere he's quick he's powerful he's got a big right hand that he tends to land um he KO you know KO Andre Philly with it and this dude has baseball back leg kicks he kind of reminds me of Jose Aldo with how dangerous his leg kicks are you saw in that last fight with Jack Shaw he literally cut open Jack Shaw's leg with just a couple of leg kicks he has baseball back leg kicks and he's got really good ground game as well he's got good jiujitsu he's really good at getting up from takedowns so yeah y Anderson Britto he's well-rounded and he seems to be a big Prospect in the division but the cons of you Anderson Britto it was hard to find any major cons but I've gone with solid Grapplers have kept him down like I said he does have really good ground gear but in that fight with Jonathan Piers for the first bit of that fight Jonathan Piers was keeping y prto down so solid grapples have kept him down and he does kind of have negative fight IQ he's shown in a couple of his fights he does a lot of high IQ moments that I just don't know why like I I remember there was a time in that fight with Jonathan Pierce when he was trying to engage in a grappling match and that's not what you want to be doing against Jonathan Pi so his fight IQ is quite questionable as well so the game plan of beating you Anderson Brito is be prepared to check the leg kicks he immediately off the bat against Shak showw was just throwing those leg kicks be prepared to check the leg kicks and look out for the right hand where he F the Le kick as well just be prepared to check them cuz when you check the leg kicks that's going to do a lot of damage to him so just be prepared to check the the leg kick so that's going to lower his leg kick output aim to hold him against the cage and take him down that's your best opportunity Jonathan Pius did it and then he got a bit too [ __ ] and you Anderson BRD was able to get back up your best opportunity of beating this guy is to just hold him against the cage make it boring beat a balam mamed take him down hold him against the cage anything you can do to just make just waste as much time as possible you want to do you don't want to fight this guy you want to waste time hold him against the cage look out for his leg kicks that is your best opportunity to beating you Anderson Brit because on the feet if you're in a fight in a scrap with this dude I don't like anybody's anyone's odd so youan and Brito hold him against the cage waste time and be prepare to check those leg kicks then we've got the dark hor of the featherweight Division I know he's ranked but still Loro Murphy undefeated 14 and0 just beat Ed and Bob in a fight night probably should have been on UFC three or four but obviously took a [ __ ] ton of damage in that fight the pros of luro Murphy is that he he's very good everywhere he's very good he's a really good wrestler he's one of the few British Fighters that kind of go away from that stereotype that britz can't wrestle he's a really good wrestler and he's striking is super technical as well he was out boxing Edon B boser in that fight and he can keep a five round Pace his stamina is not an issue he sh in that fight with Edson Bala he can keep a five round Pace at a high level he was pressure in bza he was had high outut in those later rounds he can keep a five round pace and this dude is tough as Nails I mean you look at what this dude has gone through in life he's tough as nails and even just that fight with Edson Bosa his nose was broken he looked beat up and he's still walking forward he's tough as Nails he's durable and he is not an easy guy to put out of there you're going to have to do some significant damage to put this dude out of there he's like a I don't know this dude is just a monster the cons though of Loro Murphy is that he does have Pillow fist he's not the hardest hitter on the feet even though he's technical he doesn't seem to have the most power most of his power comes from his body kicks and his knees his actual boxing doesn't seem to be the most powerful and he's not the best on the feet defensively as well from what we've seen it doesn't seem that hard to be able to shots against luron Murphy on the feet he's Technical and he's really he's you know he's really technical but he's not the hardest to hit on the feet so he's not the best defensively and even though he's a really good Grappler he does lack takedown defense he's show against Gabriel Santos in the UFC and he's shown before he does kind of lack takedown defense see best opportunity in the game plan to beat Lon Murphy would be don't let him pressure you he loves pressuring people to set up those takedowns don't let him be the one pressuring you you want to be the one pressuring him and when he fought Amir carne Amir carne was pressuring him and that made it so effective so just don't let him pressure you making a dog fight with him as well engaging the scrap I know he's durable and tough but you just don't want him to be technical you don't want him to look pretty out there make it a dog fight and mix it up with the takedowns and the submission effect attempts he's had a lot of problems in the UFC so far from offensive Grappler so if you can mixing him with the takedowns and the submission attempts that's your best opportunity of beating Lon Murphy essentially just don't let him get going is your best opportunity to beat on the raw Murphy then we've got and this is probably the guy who most people are going to you you look at and take the piss out of wildo ctis a Costa I know he's not a big Prospect compared to the rest of the guys on this division but we've got to include a heavyweight on this list Robert desp robell despain is gone we've got to include somebody so I've had to include wildog c as a Costa for the heavyweight division he's 12 and one he shut down the prospect of uh Rober list Spain so the pros of wdo CZ a Costa is that he is well-rounded he's a good Striker he's got KO power and he's got good wrestling as well he's a well-rounded heavyweight he's not just a one trick py he's n terrible anywhere as well it's not like he's in an obvious place where you can beat him rebellis disp couldn't get going on the feet his first grapple is before was caught as a Coster that couldn't really do anything effective against him he isn't terrible everywhere and he's got decent fight IQ I know in the heavyweight division especially these blobs it's not the you any sort of fire ATT you was impressive but at least he's not one of these heavyweights that try going out there and trying to strike with rebellis to Spain he did the the smart move took it to the ground so those are the pros of wild o c as a Costa the cons he has a slow pace he's not the H the fastest heavyweight out there he is quite slow and his overall fighting Pace seems to be quite slow he's unathletic as well any heavyweight that's athletic he's probably going to run over a heavyweight that isn't athletic and he's just irritating as well they just he isn't a lack dude he's really irritating in the Octagon is wildo c as a Costa always mocking upon he always trying to get in people's head and it is just a big con of him so the the game plan to beat wildo c as a Costa if you're a heavyweight would be be an athletic heavyweight be a Tom aspinal Be A Serial guard be a heavyweight that has some sort of athleticism so that you can be 10 times more effective than him because he's an athletic you've got to have that athletic background pick him apart range don't let him walk forward and land shots on you land those body kicks pick them apart at range um keep the distance keep the control the distance and just pick him apart and just don't fall for his Man games he's going to be mocking you during the fight he's going to be laughing at you he's going to be trying to get in your head don't fall for it stay technical stay calm I don't know what I'm saying stay calm when you're fighting bloody wild or cost not fighting pavlovich but just pick him apart of range be an athletic heavyweight that's your best opportunity at wildo c as a Costa and then we've got Michael Morales 16 and0 undefeated kind of one of the most untalked about prospects right now in the UFC now the pros is that he's he's got athlete athleticism we talked about wildo C cost not being athletic Marco Morales is so athletic he's he's just with his striking with his grappling he's shown that he's a super athletic um like a super athletic wel towe he's a crafty Striker as well he's able to land some really good shots with his boxing and his elbows as well he's really crafty and kind of difficult to adjust to on the feet and he's got a great chin he has tanked some massive shots so far in his UFC career and he's he's been able to walk forward um he's got a really good chin he showed in that f with Jake Matthews as well he's got a really good chin so those are the pros of Michael Morales the cons is that he only tends to use boxing he doesn't really mix up with the kicks a lot I don't really see enough leg kicks from him or body kicks he seems to kind of just use boxing on the feet and he does struggle with Grapplers I don't understand why Jake Matthews didn't try and take him down more because he's not an elite Grapplers on Morales you feed this dude to a gender Grappler that's his lowest opportunity of winning so he's not an elite Grappler and he only tends to use boxing so the best opportunity of beating michco Morales is to just don't fight at his range don't let him get going on the feet make it an ugly fight make it boring mix up the clinch Work Land shots in the clinch um shoot for the takedowns and just aim to take it to the ground against Michael Morales the more technical the fight is the bigger opportunity Michael Morales has of winning because he's such a crafty Striker but that is how I would beat every single Pro Prospect in the UFC every major Prospect let me know your thoughts on this type of video style and how you would personally beat these prospects and if I've missed any prospects out listen there's so many prospects in the UFC it's hard to keep track of so let me know your thoughts thank you for
