Respecting (and Scouting) Older MMA Prospects

Sam Creasey
Flyweight
17-5
England
35

Creasey has been a staple for a long time in Cage Warriors and is having big success. Creasey has fought and beaten a lot of good fighters across his long career. He’s reached heights as a former Cage Warriors champion. He does tend to not be as consistent but he’s never out of a fight. His power at 125 and ability to snatch a neck at any given time is dangerous. Creasey I believe would do fine in the UFC.

Murthel Groenhart
Welterweight
3-0
Netherlands
36

Groenhart is a two-time Glory welterweight contender tournament winner and a former Glory welterweight champion. With that, he’s also won two K-1 tournaments. A 69-26-3 record and has been fighting at a high level for the last decade. Groenhart is very quick, athletic, and really explosive. His explosiveness showed in his last fight getting a flying knee finish. I’ve also seen excellent head movement and footwork from “The Predator” as well. Maybe it’s too late to make a run but he has the capability.
