10 Lightweight Prospects the UFC Should Sign in 2021

Amin “Fierceness” Ayoub

 25 | 5’11″ | France | 15-4 | 10 Finishes | 2 KO/TKOs, 8 Submissions’ (3 Armbars’, 2 Guillotines’, 2 RNC’s, Arm-triangle) | Combined Opponents’ Record: 81-46 | Best Win – Djamil Chan (15-6) 

With each passing year, more and more talent is being produced out of France. Ayoub himself has been fighting for a while, but is just underrated. The 24-year-old French fighter already has a good amount of fights under his belt. He hasn’t lost a fight in over two years as he’s currently on a six-fight win streak.

Ayoub is a European kickboxing champion but eight of his MMA wins come by submission. His takedown defense needs a lot of work but at least he does have a dangerous guard. Ayoub on the feet throws good output and mixes his kicks and punches together well. He has some work to do but has tons of talent.
