I think Wonderboy can capitalized on oblique kicking his knees. but once Usman get near on him, he will wrestlefuck him to death.

Seems strange that when talking about Bisping, his loss against Belfort and Bisping losing his right eye as a result of the KO kick from that fight wasn't mentioned. Arguably the most notable of his setbacks before becoming champ, as it meant that from then onward, he kept fighting and managed to become champ with only one eye.

A lot of fighters on this list definitely seem like they just needed time to develop and get experience/figure out how to optimize their training and game plan for top tier talent. I think UFC fetishizes talent understandably it's instantly impressive, and easily marketable, but I think MMA fans are willing to buy into a comeback story as well. Like just increase cutting to fighters to six fights and make that part of the narrative of fights people will pay attention when a guy starts proving people wrong.
