Apart from the obvious guys (Kimbo, Sims, Nelson) I have seen McSweeney (Good to see a brit in there) fight a few times. Typical kickboxer coming into MMA, he has v good striking skills but lacked a ground game. I know he has been training at Greg Jackson's so hopefully he has improved.
James McSweeney seems like a decent striker, saw him on Cage Rage? Maybe? Don't know how he'll cope with his ground game, and his record isn't terribly good.
this looks like the best one yet, the talent is very high and should be interesting i hope the rumours of kimbo getting knocked out are true
