4. Light Heavyweight: Anthony Johnson
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=whsP-hpff2s Recently returned to the UFC, and with a new-found lease on fighting life at 205lbs, Anthony Johnson is one hard hitter. When he first set foot in the UFC, he was fighting at welterweight. To put this in comparison - Johnson has fought at heavyweight before. After having well-documented weight cutting troubles at welterweight, Johnson went up to middleweight - and missed weight badly in his debut there against Vitor Belfort. After a very public exile from the UFC, Johnson found himself a star in the upstart WSOF. There, fighting comfortably at his natural weight class of light heavyweight, Johnson got his career back on track. Over his career, he has 11 wins by KO or TKO, inclunding KO wins over Mike Kyle and D.J. Linderman in the past two years.
