4) Khamzat Chimaev

Speaking of banner years, Khamzat Chimaev did his bit to ensure that people talk about him for the years to come.

The Swede came into the promotion undefeated but wowed fans with his debut win over John Phillips.

Chimaev won his next two bouts in incredible fashion and also fought in two different classes. He rose high up the rankings and was set to fight Leon Edwards before Covid-19 cut that off.

However, people are talking about Chimaev as a future champion and he could achieve that next year.
