All the UFC players in the world have got some real & amazing fight skills but today in this article I will tell you only about those fighters who are considered one of the deadliest UFC fighters.

5. | Robbie Lawler |
6. | Jimi Manuwa |
7. | Melvin Guillard |

10. | Abel Trujillo |
10. UFC Player: Abel Trujillo
Name | Abel Trujillo |
Born | 18 September 1983 (age 38) |
Height | 5 ft 7 in (1.73 m) |
From | America |
Ring Name | Abel Trujillo |
Debut | 2009 |
As one of the hardest-hitting lightweights in the UFC today, Abel "Killa" Trujillo knows how to utilize his strengths.
Blessed with incredible athleticism and an even more impressive chin, Trujillo can exchange with almost any divisional foe without consequence.
With time to mature, the Blackzilian will find out exactly when to tap into his inner beast and when to back off. His recent decapitation of Jamie Varner at UFC 169 was a step in the right direction.
Nobody and I mean nobody, should want to fight Trujillo right now.
9. UFC Player: Anthony Johnson
Name | Anthony Johnson |
Born | 6 March 1984 (age 38) |
Height | 6 ft 1 in (1.88 m) |
From | America |
Ring Name | Anthony Johnson |
Debut | 2021 |
Welcome home, Anthony Johnson.
Since his departure from the UFC back in 2012, "Rumble" has been wreaking havoc from New Jersey to Florida, finishing three of his last four victories by way of knockout.
Now knockouts aren't the only criteria for being violent, but it's a good start. The fact that Johnson used to fight as a welterweight and is now bullying guys at light heavyweight, speaks wonders as to how vicious and overpowering he truly is.
The rest of his game may not be world-class, but his ability to swing for the fences and leave with a grand slam should allow him to shine in his return to the promotion.
8. UFC Player: Matt Brown
Name | Matt Brown |
Born | 10 January 1981 (age 41) |
Height | 6 ft (1.83 m) |
From | America |
Ring Name | Matt Brown |
Debut | 2007 |
Now we don't know what exactly is running through his mind during a fight, but I'd like to think "The Immortal" is visualizing getting chased by a pack of wild rottweilers.
In any case, Brown competes with a menacing appetite for immediate destruction, and that makes him one of the most dangerous welterweights in the game today.
He just doesn't seem to care what the outcome of a fight is, as long as he gets to lay his leather fists on an opponent's cringing chin.
7. UFC Player: Matt Brown
Name | Melvin Guillard |
Born | 30 March 1983 (age 43) |
Height | 5 ft 7 (1.75 m) |
From | America |
Ring Name | Melvin Guillard |
Debut | 2014 |
People tend to forget about the talented Melvin Guillard because he doesn't really string together prolonged win streaks. But that really isn't fair, is it?
When we're talking about raw, uninterrupted violence, winning shouldn't dictate who gets on this list. Well, Guillard is the exception we're looking for.
As arguably the biggest and strongest lightweight in the sport today, "The Young Assassin" is able to fall back on his empowering strength and athleticism in order to manifest dangerous situations for his opponents.
With 20-career knockouts draped around his waist, Guillard is proof that putting 110 percent into every punch truly does work, sometimes.
6. UFC Player: Jimi Manuwa
Name | Jimi Manuwa |
Born | 18 February 1980 (age 42) |
Height | 6 ft 1 (1.83 m) |
From | America |
Ring Name | Jimi Manuwa |
Debut | 2008 |
Unknown to most UFC fans, many people would scoff at the idea of Jimi Manuwa landing on this list, let alone No. 6.
But what those ill-informed individuals need to realize is that Manuwa isn't just winning inside the Octagon, he is practically picking opponents apart.
In just three appearances in the promotion, "Poster Boy" has injured two light heavyweights and forced an early doctor's stoppage on another. His body shots have been absolutely savage, and the way he tucks his head and plows full steam is truly throwback.
People are going to be pleasantly surprised to see how well Manuwa performs opposite Alexander Gustafsson next month at UFC Fight Night 37.
5. UFC Player: Robbie Lawler
Name | Robbie Lawler |
Born | 20 March1982 (age 42) |
Height | 5 ft 9 (1.8 m) |
From | America |
Ring Name | Robbie Lawler |
Debut | 2001 |
The bottom line with Lawler is you know what you're going to get. As an opposing fighter looking into his eyes from across the cage, you know the guy is coming full blast. You know he's not going to stop until you're either unconscious or the world comes to an end.
But even though fighters know that Lawler is going to throw unlawful leather for as long as it takes, there's no stopping him.
His violence is simply too consistent. Like the sun rising in the east, Lawler is going to try to roll heads with every punch, kick, knee, and takedown he has.
4. UFC Player: Mark Hunt
Name | Mark Hunt |
Born | 23 March 1974 (age 48) |
Height | 5 ft 8 (1.78 m) |
From | New Zealand |
Ring Name | Mark Hunt |
Debut | 2010 |
If my body was trapped underneath a burning semi, Mark Hunt is the one guy in the world I would want lifting it off me.
Well, maybe Superman, but he's usually too busy to come to hang out.
The fact of the matter is that Hunt is one of the strongest fighters of all time and a guy who is blessed with a hellacious left hook. Heck, "Super Samoan" detached Stefan Struve's jaw with one explosive punch.
He has gone toe-to-toe with the very best heavyweights in the game and often lets the fire consume him even in the eye of defeat. He's a guy nobody should ever want to see, and a world-class fighter that is nearly impossible to put out.
3. UFC Player: Wanderlei Silva
Name | Wanderlei Silva |
Born | 3 July 1976 (age 46) |
Height | 5 ft 9 (1.8 m) |
From | Brazilian American |
Ring Name | Wanderlei Silva |
Debut | 1999 |
There's no arguing, Wanderlei Silva is one violent character.
You don't carry the nickname "The Axe Murderer" unless you mean business. In fact, Silva looks like the kind of guy to choke and slam a milk carton if the top doesn't open properly.
Even as an aging veteran whose prime is way back in the rearview, the Brazilian's "old man" strength continues to fuel a barbaric and tumultuous in-cage persona.
The 37-year-old is often at his best when he gets inside, wings his short T-Rex arms, and aims to send his fists through the skull. That's violence at its best.
Chael Sonnen might have once again bitten off more than he can chew.
2. UFC Player: Diego Sanchez
Name | Diego Sanchez |
Born | 31 December1981(age 40) |
Height | 5 ft 9 (1.8 m) |
From | Brazilian American |
Ring Name | Diego Sanchez |
Debut | 2022 |
With an eyebrow turned sideways and blood covering his gritted face, Diego Sanchez still pushes forward.
His true warrior sense and ability to overcome adversity inside the cage is an instant throwback to the days of Forrest Griffin vs. Stephan Bonnar.
As one of the most vicious Octagon patrolmen today, Sanchez is simply too wild and unpredictable to deal with. His ferocious offense and caution-to-the-wind defense spell trouble for any lightweight not ready to bang.
The fact that Sanchez's violent ways usually produce Fight of the Night-worthy action is a fan's best nightmare.
1. UFC Player: Vitor Belfort
Name | Vitor Belfort |
Born | 1 April 1977(age 40) |
Height | 6 ft 1 (1.8 m) |
From | Brazilian |
Ring Name | Vitor Belfort |
Debut | 2006 |
Fear is not a factor for Vitor Belfort.
Even at the ripe age of 36, "The Phenom" is still swarming some of the best fighters in the world with blinding speed and smoldering power.
His knack for finishing guys who usually don't get finished is not only a testament to his evolution as a fighter in today's new era of MMA, but also to his unsullied grasp for violence.
Like an incendiary bomb let loose in a phone booth, the Brazilian is able to jump all over an opponent from the first bell to the last.
Not to mention the fact that he has seemingly polished his craft on the heels of memorable head-kick knockouts in 2013.
