@@user-wt8im2ro1p he holds the record for most title defenses, never popped for PEDs unlike Jones and has fought more opponents than GSP and Jon and his only loss against a legitimate flyweight was against Triple C which is much more impressive than losing to Matt Serra...... How can you flat out say they are better than him?
Basically any victim of recency bias. I've seen Tony Ferguson's career tragically mentioned in other videos, but he definitely deserves an honorable mention in this list.
@phobos ex one of the first ppvs i got my dad to watch live with me was ufc 125, the edgar vs. maynard fight. I have never seen the old guy so excited, lol. He hasnt shut up about frankie edgar all these years later
@@brians7901 yeah its so crazy. People dont get how good he was, like he didnt cut weight and still moved up a weightclass and became champ. Became champ at lightweight while he should have been a bantamweight and he was so exciting too.
Everyone knows the legendary fight between Lawler and Rory MacDonald, but I wish fans today got to see how insanely talented Rory actually was. The dude beat BJ Penn, Demian Maia, absolutely ragdolled Nate Diaz and even beat a prime and dangerous Tyron Woodley. That second fight with Lawler just took that spirit away.
Tbh? I don't think that fight was that good. First 2 rounds were feelers. Basically nothing happened. 3rd and 4th? Fire, then of course the 5th only lasted like a minute before the finish. So quite literally out of 5 rounds only 2 of them were good. There are SO many fights that had all 5 rounds be amazing, so i never understand why the fight with only 2 noteable rounds has so much regard. Like quite literally the "good" parts of the fight are less than half of the actual match.
@@jesselindquist1794 idk. Those first 2 rounds are why i don't put it top 10. Hard to call it one of the greatest fights ever when half the fight is them just feeling eachother out. I can think of plenty fights with no feeling out that are entertaining starting to finish, yet people get all nostalgic over the fight that literally only has 2 good rounds. And the 3rd round didn't even pick up until the end 😂
I always enjoyed his fights in the UFC, and still get excited every time he is on a One FC card. Never understood the disrespect. Dude is world class AND entertaining, plus a seemingly great guy outside the cage. What's not to like?
Megumi was just on a whole different level, and yes you probably could drop her right into the modern weight classes she fought at and she would still do incredibly well.
You’re right i’ve always said how Dawson McKeel is under appreciated but I think it’s because of the caveat next to your name. The best mma fighter in the world who’s never stepped in the cafe.
In that period of time Conor was at his peak, knocking out guys for sport and knocking out aldo in seconds who was dominant over the division for years... He dropped off afterwards but Conor at that point was highly rated and was arguably the pound for pound best after his accomplishments to that point. People forget the accomplishments of Conor within the sport because of his recent behaviour.
Genki Sudo is insane, you gotta have some serious intriguing shit going on in your life to simply say "this winning fights is nice and all but i got better things to do!". most fighters can't say the same thing, most of them have nothing but fighting, which is kind of sad.
Igor Vovchanchyn another underapreciated legend. Guy was like 5'9 fighting at HW against bigger opponents and one of the most violent fighters. He is the Rocky Marciano of MMA Imo.
Possibly the most dangerous man pound for pound in the history of the sport. You put him in his proper weight class in today’s game with modern training and he would buzz saw through the division.
SHINYA AOKI, his crazy violent and creative use of submissions along with his extremely high level of skill blew my mind even more than seeing bjj used for the first time.
If you knew nothing about Genki Sudo until today, here's something that you'll want to know: this man once defeated someone in a legitimate MMA bout with a GIANT SWING that he transitioned into a Achilles lock, a feat that will almost certainly never be attempted, much less replicated, ever again.
Great list. Genki Sudo is a legend, one of the most interesting fighters (and people) I've ever seen. This is a guy who once wore a Kung Fu outfit in a MMA fight just to see if it would help. He was crazy, but in the cool, wonderful way rather than the 'late-career Mayhem Miller' way
I have to say magumi Fiji is one of my all-time favorite women's fighters she definitely deserves a lot more recognition than what she got, just her speed and technical technique on the feet in combination with her ground game and submission skills our second to none.
Igor ice cold Volvchanchyn was a beast. Also he was a under sized heavyweight, everyone he fought was way bigger than him and he still put lights out and manhandled most of his opponents.
This channel does it again! This is what I meant when I talk about underrated, world-class fighters that don’t get enough recognition. MMA On Point, please make multiple parts of lists like this.
I've always respected DJ but I never really came round to him being in the GOAT conversation until I found out just how skilled and talented all the male Flyweight fighters are. DJ had arguably the most challenging title reign of any UFC fighter as EVERYONE he fought was good to elite and he beat them all, often dominantly. Even the guy that did beat him (Henry) only did so off a contentious split decision and DJ finished him two years prior. The fact he's extended his career into ONE FC up a weight division only adds to his greatness. Take into account his lengthy title reign and the fact he never tested positive for PEDs unlike Druggy Bones, he's top 3 all time.
@@madgavin7568 100% agreed. we didn’t really get to see how competitive the division was until dj left… back then it was a boring division because dj was just that damn good. so well rounded plus a lot of great attributes. and with that “ducked tj dillashaw” narrative that was made by the ufc cuz they wanted that fight but dj didn’t feel like he was being full compensated. he didn’t make 200k for a fight until his 6th or 7th defense which is insane. besides, him going to one fc in his mid to late thirties and beating bigger guys definitely proved that narrative wrong.
I think DJ lacked the promotional hype back in the UFC, its gotta be hard for more casual fans to appreciate his resume when the UFC didn't actively appreciate it, ONE FC has done great with him though!
Would love if you did a series on fighters from different countries or regions, MMA is so big now and a lot of smaller countrys has people that really made MMA popular in their country (Like Alexander Gustafsson here in Sweden for example)
IMO the King of the streets, Marco Ruas, should be on this list. Went to the sport at the age where a singular style was what people used to get by, and the man had both striking and grappling in his arsenal. Won a ufc tournament. Not the most prestigious record, as he only fought professional a few times, but the fact that a fighter that well rounded was around the early days of the sport should be very appreciated.
I fully agree with all the names on this list especially Kid Yamamoto! Remember first meeting my wife and telling her jow I used to watch him when I was a kid. But Bj Penn for me had to be on this list, one of the literal best to ever do it but whenever you bring him up now days some of the mad disrespect he receives from newer fans is insane.
I think in todays world of UFC, Mighty Mouse would get the love he deserved. He’s a gamer/streams, funny, fight IQ, well spoken. I think the causal fans would’ve boosted his popularity in todays scene
Awesome vid as per, I was hoping both Kid Yamamoto and Igor Vovchanchyn would get shout out. Good shout on DJ as #1 Most Under Appreciated though, lotta casuals don't even know the name of one of the front runners in the 🐐 convo
Suprised tito didn't make the list had some of the biggest rivalries in the early years of ufc was there first superstar and now is really only remembered for cte
I can't believe Frank Shamrock isn't on here, let alone not being #1. Dude is a Legend. First complete/modern MMA fighter, undefeated in the UFC. Yet when you say Shamrock, most people think Ken. Also, due to Dana's incredible ability to hold onto grudges, Frank is not in the UFC Hall of Fame.
I’m a bigger Wmma fan than most and had zero clue who Megumi fujii was until now…WHAT THE FUCK she already has a win over the #1 contender Esparza she was absolutely ahead of her time…damn.
You can tell who makes the video on this channel just by the titles, Tommy's videos are all good vibes and what the fighters are doing well and gets 1m-10m views, the others on this channel just talk shit and put the fighters down also why they only have -200k views I will close their videos as soon as they start talking because I don't like hearing them put the sport and fighters down Thanks Tommy for the great content
I watch too many of these when you said the fastest knockout ever recorded UA-cam cut to commercial and I said if Tommy doesn't say eat your heart out game bread then I'm turning the video off... You did not disappoint my friend
When Sergei popped up I was hoping you also included Igor. Two of my favorites from the good ol' Pride days! In the words of Joey Diaz: "Stipoic is crazy, the immigrant mentality is always there!". Also, DJ is the greatest lighter weight fighter to ever do it. People are just now starting to realize that he starched all those dudes because he's just a marvel of a fighter. He does things by the book, both inside the cage and in his personal life. He's like Bret Hart in wrestling, they don't need to talk shit, they just get in there and let excellence speak on their behalf.
Man RIP Kid Yamamoto my childhood friend would always play as him when we’d play UFC undisputed 3 and I’d always pick uriah Faber, Yamamoto was always a cheat code in that game some of the fastest punches and craziest kicks. Really heartbreaking cancer took him from us before he could shine for the new generation of UFC fighters
You forgot to mention DJ was a construction worker full time until late in his UFC carreer. I will never forget the flying armbar. It felt like wacthing a UFC, something incredibly out of this world. He is just amazing.
My favorite underrated fighter is Sean “The Muscleshark” Sherk. Of his 34 pro fights his only losses were to 4 of the best including Matt Hughes, GSP, BJ Penn, and Frankie Edgar.
I think Junior Dos Santos is pretty underrated. People remember him more because of the beatings he take from Cain Velasquez, Stipe and Ngannou than his 9 fight win streak
Jds's ufc wins are, in order, Werdum (ATG, champion) , Struve (Perennial Contender), Cro Cop (ATG) , Yvel (Pioneer), Gonzaga(Title Contender) , Nelson (Perennial Contender), Carwin (Interim Champ), Velasquez (ATG Champion), Mir (Great Champion), Hunt (Title Contender), Miocic (UFC goat), Rothwell (Perennial Contender), Ivanov (Beat FEDOR in sambo), Tuivasa (Current contender) and derrick lewis (Title Contender). There's some context to those wins, but on paper it's by far the best resume in Heavyweight history
Mighty Mouse is starting to get his respect but deserves a whole lot more appreciation.
Mighty Mouse is the real GOAT, and I will not argue about it
Dude's a pocket size assassin .
@@champ1159 if Jon Jones and George's St Pierre didn't exist then yea

@@emanuelmartinez7267 and that cejudo decision was sus
We need a Part 2 to this. It's such a shame that despite the very short history of MMA that there are still so many unsung heroes of the sport
Basically any victim of recency bias. I've seen Tony Ferguson's career tragically mentioned in other videos, but he definitely deserves an honorable mention in this list.
Eddie Alvares 100% belongs on the list. Also benson henderson and frankie edgar. I feel like Stipe and even DJ are getting their respect
Cus most fans are new and the UFC does a fucking terribble job of praising old legends

Rory liked hurting people but then he found Jesus.
So weird how the first few rounds of that fight were forgotten and forgiven within literal minutes
I agree. People just remember the ending and think it was some sort of amazing fight but it really was a snoozer.

Holy crap, Genki Sudo is an old-school Renaissance Man.
DJ is probably the most under appreciated champions ever. Also, he’s a stand up guy who is a great representation of the sport
Standup 'Flying Armbar Specialist'

@@TheElbowMerchant Casuals have a low opinion of small men, no matter how skilled they are.
Megumi was just on a whole different level, and yes you probably could drop her right into the modern weight classes she fought at and she would still do incredibly well.
Always going to mark out for a Megumi Fujii mention, absolute legend!
It’s me, the single most unsung hero. I’ve literally never been mentioned by the media

This is why I appreciate silent killer types who hustle their way up. Like Oliveira before the dyed hair, Edwards, and Benny.
Charles talks a lot of shit y’all just don’t understand him
Tommy, great work as usual. Extra respect for pronouncing Fujii's name properly. Your attention to detail is praiseworthy
Respect for talking about megumi fuji she's was a beast wish we could see how she would do vs today's fighters.
Demetrious Johnson the undisputed MMA Flyweight GOAT
I would argue he’s one of the top 3 P4P mma goats regardless of weight class
For Dana White to put Conor over Mighty Mouse is absurd AF. At least Johnson SUCCESSFULLY defended his title.
It's totally ridiculous.
Dana ranks fighters based off ppv, which is why he includes both Ronda and Mac in his top 5
Technically Connor never even attempted to defend a title so 🤷♀️
In that period of time Conor was at his peak, knocking out guys for sport and knocking out aldo in seconds who was dominant over the division for years...
He dropped off afterwards but Conor at that point was highly rated and was arguably the pound for pound best after his accomplishments to that point.

Generally curious Q, so are u saying mma (or any other fighting sport) for some fighters is their only job and hobby?
Igor Vovchanchyn another underapreciated legend.

He is the Rocky Marciano of MMA Imo.
Possibly the most dangerous man pound for pound in the history of the sport. You put him in his proper weight class in today’s game with modern training and he would buzz saw through the division.
Miguel Torres should've been on the list. And I always would give a shout-out to Joe Lauzon, his bonuses should give an idea how fun he was to watch
Lauzon is a great shout
Friggin' love J-Lau! Wicked entertaining every time he fights, win or lose.
Miguel Torres was beating everybody in Wec 🔥 when was bantemweight champion
SHINYA AOKI, his crazy violent and creative use of submissions along with his extremely high level of skill blew my mind even more than seeing bjj used for the first time.
Aoki gets props, but definitely under appreciated.

Fell off as soon as USADA got introduced we know why he isn’t appreciated

Also, DJ is the greatest lighter weight fighter to ever do it. People are just now starting to realize that he starched all those dudes because he's just a marvel of a fighter.

Needed this list
0:33 Came here only to hear this
DUDE Megumi never gets any love, I remember watching her submit Carla Esparza with an armbar in bellator, that win aged like fine wine
Although they make me feel old, i love lists that include fighters like Vovchanchyn and Mega-Meg
Great list
Genki won the game decades ago and has been completing side quests ever since. Dude is a legend.
Always a good time seeing “Dabbing Aljo”
Good to see Cub get some love
Genki sumo highlights rank up there with some of the best highlight videos anyone has.
FINALLY SOME RESPECT FOR MY GUY IGOR!
Thank you for adding marlon moraes ! He’s very very underrated In his prime
Megumi Fujii is such a great shout. She was one of the first I started watching religiously
Right away knew Stipe and DJ are on the list
Man RIP Kid Yamamoto my childhood friend would always play as him when we’d play UFC undisputed 3 and I’d always pick uriah Faber, Yamamoto was always a cheat code in that game some of the fastest punches and craziest kicks. Really heartbreaking cancer took him from us before he could shine for the new generation of UFC fighters
Ty for including Igor Vovchanchyn.
He's a goat no doubt
Honestly I think that a normal person would probably assume King Mo could not read English lol.
Dawson McKeel is the most unappreciated for sure
The fact that glover Teixeira isn't on this list proves that he's one of the most unappreciated fighters to walk into the cage
I remember seeing the fight that ended megumis run and thinking she probably should have gotten the decision
I've watched some videos of Genki Sudo' in World Order. I had no idea he was a fighter until watching this.
Respect.
You forgot to mention DJ was a construction worker full time until late in his UFC carreer.
I will never forget the flying armbar. It felt like wacthing a UFC, something incredibly out of this world. He is just amazing.
Mma on point as a youtube page deserves more appreciation in mma youtube

Yo I remember playing Igor in the Pride video game. Dude was so OP lol.

Love the Igor vovchanchyn entry
I think Junior Dos Santos is pretty underrated. People remember him more because of the beatings he take from Cain Velasquez, Stipe and Ngannou than his 9 fight win streak
True. Possibly the best heavyweight win streak in UFC history
Jds's ufc wins are, in order, Werdum (ATG, champion) , Struve (Perennial Contender), Cro Cop (ATG) , Yvel (Pioneer), Gonzaga(Title Contender) , Nelson (Perennial Contender), Carwin (Interim Champ), Velasquez (ATG Champion), Mir (Great Champion), Hunt (Title Contender), Miocic (UFC goat), Rothwell (Perennial Contender), Ivanov (Beat FEDOR in sambo), Tuivasa (Current contender) and derrick lewis (Title Contender). There's some context to those wins, but on paper it's by far the best resume in Heavyweight history
@6:39, swap out Ngannou for Cro Cop or Big Nog, and your HW All-Time greats graphic is correct. 👍
Marco Ruas ... He was a pioneer of the sport and one of the first truly well-rounded fighters with impressive wins in both the UFC and Pride FC.
Respect !!! Igor always one of my favs. So underappreciated, such a boss.
