Georgia
Georgia in the last few years has produced a ton of top fighters from Georgia. Some like Giga Chikadze, Roman Dolidze, Merab Dvalishvili, and Ilia Topuria. Georgia has a lot of options but it has to be the proven Mate Sanikidze (11-2). Sanikidze has been around since 2017 and has done a lot. He’s fought for ACB, M1 Challenge, WLF Wars, and most recently Oktagon winning the featherweight title. More of a striker/kickboxer but lately he’s decided to wrestle a little bit more. Overall he’s hard to read. Sanikidze has a nice flow to him on the feet. He throws some slick combinations while the release and hands are quick from the hip. Sanikidze isn’t even near his prime and that’s a scary thought. He could use a few minor adjustments so the potential is there.
Germany
One of the most underrated areas that have a ton of really good prospects is Germany. Of all the options, I’m a big fan of Germany’s own, Islam Dulatov (9-1). Since losing his first fight, Dulatov hasn’t lost again winning his next nine bouts. He’s finished all of his opponents and six of those he finished in under a minute. Dulatov is huge at 6’6″ and uses his length to his advantage. He’s a really rangy guy with a good jab and straight punches. He makes opponents pay coming in with step-in knees and is just difficult to close the distance on. There haven’t been hardly any concerns with him yet but that might be because he’s finishing fights so quickly.
Greece
Alexandros Moumtzis (7-0) is the next UFC fighter out of Greece I’m predicting. He’s been the best prospect out of Greece for some time but isn’t as known because of canceled fights. There isn’t a ton of footage to watch to know how he good he really is but from all I’ve heard, he definitely the best prospect out of Greece.
