Description

We all know of the fighters like Brock Lesnar or even Alex Pereira that got their UFC title shots extremely quickly thanks to the support of the UFC brass. In this video, we talk about the ones that for one reason or another were actually held back from their opportunity, in some cases by the UFC for people like Tom Aspinall or with Khamzat Chimaev against Dricus Du Plessis, well it was just a lot. Either way, they were all held back for extremely long periods of time.
