5 under the radar names to look out for at UFC 269

#4. Randy 'The Zohan' Costa - UFC bantamweight

UFC bantamweight Randy Costa perfectly fits the 'potential to be great' moniker. 'The Zohan' is 2-2 inside the UFC with a 6-2 overall record. He has finished each of his wins while utilizing blitzing strikes and a quick tempo to overwhelm his opposition.

Despite his strengths, Costa has drawn some criticism for his apparent inability to pace himself. However, he is still an MMA fledgling that will surely hone his skills as he gains experience.

At UFC 269, Costa takes on Tony Kelly, a well-rounded bantamweight who is currently 1-1 inside the UFC. Kelly is perfectly capable of taking this fight into deep waters and will prove an excellent litmus test for Randy Costa.

#3. Erin 'Cold Blooded' Blanchfield - UFC women's flyweight

At UFC 269, Erin Blanchfield faces one of the UFC women's top 135lb prospects in Miranda Maverick. Despite being just eight fights into her pro career, Blanchfield is also a talented fighter seeking opportunity.

UFC Fight Night: Blanchfield v Alpar

Blanchfield made her UFC debut this year with a unanimous decision win over Sarah Alpar. Prior to her UFC debut, Blanchfield primarily competed for Invicta FC where she picked up wins against future octagon signees Kay Hansen and Victoria Leonardo.

This will certainly be a tough test for the 22-year-old, but 'Cold Blooded' can put the women's lightweight division on notice with a win vs. Maverick.
