#3 Sergei Kharitonov
Sergei Kharitonov is regarded by many as one of the very best Heavyweights the sport of MMA has ever seen. The man has beaten the likes of Alistair Overeem, Andrei Arlovski, Roy Nelson, and several others. Additionally, the 'Paratrooper' has also achieved a tremendous amount of success in the kickboxing realm.
Kharitonov presently fights for Bellator MMA, M-1 Global as well as Glory Kickboxing. His grappling skills are excellent, however, the Russian veteran has always been known for his fight-ending one-punch KO power. He trained boxing at an early age, and subsequently, began honing his skills in Combat Sambo.
Furthermore, Kharitonov was eventually offered the opportunity to work as MMA legend Fedor Emelianenko's sparring partner, an offer that he gladly accepted, following which, the latter taught him several essential Mixed Martial Arts techniques. Kharitonov is now 38 years of age, and most fans of the 'Paratrooper' still hope that he gets to close out his career by fighting in the UFC...
