10 Biggest UFC Prospects Aged 23 And Under

7. Arnold Allen

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aMy7RFJLFVE One of the UK's bright young prospects, Allen is a talented athlete able to use his pressure grappling game to great effect. Like many European fighters, Allen cut his teeth in Cage Warriors where he built up an impressive 9-1 record before getting his short notice call-up to the UFC to face another highly rated prospect Alan Omer in Germany. Allen showed great toughness but was arguably losing the fight before catching Omer in a choke and getting the comeback win. Allen has followed the trend of British fighters to move and train at Tristar in Canada to improve his game, which is a fantastic move to improve his skills as he is very raw but has solid power in his strikes, great clinch work and trips and smothering top control. The Englishman is only 22 years old and has a very high ceiling: he's a potential future title contender in the stacked Featherweight division.
