10 Bantamweight Prospects the UFC Should Sign in 2022

Dominique “Black Panther” Wooding

25 | 5’9″ | London, England | 9-4 | 100% finish rate | 9 KO/TKO’s | Combined Opponents’ Record: 37-14 | Best Win – Nathan Fletcher (6-0)

After a 1-3 run from 2018-2020, Wooding signed with Cage Warriors and had a resurgence in his career. Since signing CW in 2021, Wooding has gone 3-0, capping off the year in a big way. Last September Wooding beat Nathan Fletcher who was 6-0 and a highly regarded prospect out of England. It was for the title and Wooding stopped Fletcher in the third round. A few weeks ago Wooding defended his Cage Warriors bantamweight title in just under a minute.

Wooding has a lot of experience fighting good fighters and spent some time in Bellator. Wooding is a dynamic explosive fighter that is insanely quick and athletic. He can finish the fight at any time. Exciting to watch and still only 25-years-old so the sky is the limit. It’s a must sign for the UFC.
