20 UFC Prospects Destined For Big Things In 2020

14. Jack Shore

If you're a follower of the European MMA circuit, then you shouldn't be a stranger to the name Jack Shore. However, for those that don't know, the UFC made a major bantamweight signing when they brought in the talented Welsh man.

A former Cage Warriors 135 lb champion, Shore has some fantastic physical and technical attributes and he's put them to use outstandingly in his career. Firstly, he's brilliant at using his grappling to tire his opponents out. He breaks them mentally, giving them no choice but to succumb to a submission or get finished by ground and pound.

His striking is getting better every time he competes, but he's so violent with his strikes on the ground and so smooth with his grappling transitions that you can see why that's his main weapon.

Whether or not he stays at bantamweight is a different story, as he's quite big for the weight class. However, if he does move up to 145 lb, he'll still be a threat to anyone sharing a cage with him.
