Which of the top 15 HW has the best chance in becoming UFC champion?

[Takes_Two_To_Tango]

(Besides Tom Aspinall the interim HW champ and Stipe who's up next to fight for the belt with Jones.)

Who do you think best chance to become champion?

I'm going to say these two guys. Leaning toward Ciryl Gane.

 

[Jean-MMA]

Renan Ferreira is the next HW goat

Renan Ferreira is the next HW goat

I wish he was with the UFC.

 

[Davidjacksonjones]

I am not sure
But I think as long as Jones or Tom is champ, Gane won't beat either of them due to his lack of ground game. Maybe if someone dethrones Tom first but who

 

[Tweak896]

Have to go with Almeida. He had a shit showing last time around but still won. Gane and Pavlovich are behind him and could go on another win streak. It's a toss up in my opinion.

 

[ExitLUPin]

Volkov or Pav IMO but realistically Tom will reign for years

Gane doesn't have any grappling and he is not a great finisher for a HW..Not much power. His style will make him a tough out for some but not champion.

Jailton too one dimensional yeah even tho its HW he has the same approach and tactic every fight. When hes forced to stand whivh he will be soon he'll get derailed bad

People have been saying Blaydes is next up for years now and he always get rekt when he's about to be in a title eliminator. People overrate him since he's more well rounded on paper than most other HWs but his fight IQ is lacking and he struggles to put it altogether. Not champ material. Top 5 gatekeeper.

Other names there are just LOL not even worth mentioning. Christ HW is as bad as ever.

 

[El Fernas]

Gane or Almeida.

Come on, Rodrigo Nascimento is the greatest thing since sliced bread. You can't look pass him.

 

[BigTruck]

Renan Ferreira is the next HW goat

That guy's has like 3 no contest and couple dq's for the shady shit he does in and out of the ring.

 

[spinup]

Have no chance:
Rozenstruik, Lewis, Tuivasa, Tybura, Romanov, Nascimento, De Lima, Spivac

Possible chance, not so likely:
Volkov, Almeida

Plausible chance:
Gane, Pavlovich, Blaydes

Right now, I would favor Aspinall against anyone but Jones and Ngannou.

 

[DjolexMTL]

Blaydes beats Almeida and loses to Aspinall.

Gane gets wrestled by Aspinall.

[colorles]

It's still Sergei Pavlovich
