1) Mauricio Rua

Possibly one of the greatest fighters in the history of the sport, Mauricio Shogun Rua, is a former Light Heavyweight Champion in the UFC.

Shogun Rua is a legend in the MMA business but could be part of the UFC roster cuts
Mauricio ‘Shogun’ Rua of Brazil (R) kicks Antonio Rogerio Nogueira of Brazil, in their middleweight fight during the UFC 251 event at UFC Fight Island in Abu Dhabi’s Yas Island on July 26, 2020.

However, age might be catching up to him as the 39-year-old lost his last fight to Paul Craig. The Brazilian can still do a decent job but the Heavyweight division is loaded with several big names, especially with Jon Jones moving up.

Silva was an example of a big name leaving and Rua could be part of the UFC roster cuts too.
