#4. Sean Brady - UFC welterweight
When Sean Brady was the Cage Fury FC welterweight champion back in 2017, he was dubbed by many as the greatest prospect ever produced by the promotion. Brady is a wizard on the ground and is a black belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu under Daniel Gracie.

Brady is also a physical specimen. He is very athletic and strong, which combined with his ground skills makes him lethal. Testament to his high-level abilities on the mat, he beat Australian grappling phenom Craig Jones in a Brazilian jiu-jitsu match last year.

Brady's professional record stands at 15-0 overall and 5-0 in the UFC. His statement-making win over TUF winner Michael Chiesa last year cemented his status as one of the most intriguing prospects at 170 pounds. He currently occupies the No.9 spot in the welterweight rankings and is touted by many as a future titleholder.
#3. Umar Nurmagomedov - UFC bantamweight
Being the first cousin to one of the greatest mixed martial artists of all time brings a lot of eyes and expectations with it. Umar Nurmagomedov comes from the same bloodline as Khabib Nurmagomedov. He has been trained by the late Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov as well, and shares the same wrestling-heavy style as the former lightweight champion.
The Russian also has some nasty kicks which distinguishes him from his cousin. Nurmagomedov is currently 14-0 overall and 2-0 in the UFC. His last outing was against Brian Kelleher in March, which he won via submission with a rear-naked choke.
Nurmagomedov has been tipped by his cousin and coach Khabib Numragomedov to become a future bantamweight champion. He will likely face a step-up in competition next time around and it will be interesting to see how he fares against the elite of the 135-pound division.
