    Who do you guys think is the biggest prospect in MMA?

    I don't know that much about MMA but im going to say Gray Maynard.

    In relation to the question, Cain Velasquez maybe. Too many to cut down to one really. Anthony Johnson. Jon Jones. And many more.

    I think Cain Velasquez is probably at the top of the "hot" list for prospects. Already in the UFC and being fed cans.

    Satoshi Ishii is a gold medalist Judo player looking to transition to MMA. I guess that would make him a hot prospect. (In a very raw sense)

    Ben Askren(very decorated ncaa wrestler) is taking up mma. I think he's could be really dangerous if he takes bjj seriously. Very raw.. but a great wrestling base.

    Jon Jones, he is still raw but you can see the guy has lots of talent and he is in his early 20s. Another guy I like who is coming up is Luis Cane. The guy is a animal, he can bang, has a solid chin and is a black belt in BJJ. Not seen much of him on the ground so far so its difficult to tell how good his BJJ is. Looking forward to see how Satoshi Ishii does too.

    That man, with a good takedown defence, could knock out everyone:D or at least, break their knees:D

    Valasquez does not suck and his fight against HH will show where he is at.

    pretty obvious answer. The best prospect and already one of the best fighters in MMA right now is Junior Dos Santos. I just hope he fights Velazquez lol

    Roberty Drysdale if he continues, Johnny Hendrix, and if you count guys already in the bigger shows: Dustin Hazelett, Toquinho Palhares, agree with Gray Maynard, Jon Jones, Paulo Thiago has a good start.

    Joseph Benavidez, a disciple of Uriah Faber and fights just like him.

    He would strip BJ of his title given the chance to fight at the UFC
