5 UFC fighters not known for finishing fights but are incredibly entertaining

#2. Colby Covington

UFC 272: Covington vs. Masvidal

Colby Covington made a name for himself in a similar route as the previously mentioned Chael Sonnen. On the verge of being cut from the UFC's roster, 'Chaos' targeted the entire demographic that is the Brazilian fanbase. Covington has a finish over former welterweight champion, Tyron Woodley, which came via a rib injury in the fifth round of their 2020 bout. Prior to this, Covington's last finish was in 2016 against Max Griffin.

Covington took a page out of professional wrestler Kurt Angle's book along with his entrance music and became the most hated fighter in the UFC. From borderline fired to main events, he's not only turned his career around, but he's been putting on some of the best performances that the welterweight division has seen. The incredible pace and great cardio makes Covington's performances exciting off of pure relentlessness.

#1. Joanna Jedrzejczyk

UFC 248: Adesanya vs. Romero

One of the most exciting fighters, be it male or female, is Joanna Jedrzejczyk. While many fighters tend to fade as a bout goes on, the American Top Team fighter just keeps getting better. Many champions have mastered the fourth and fifth rounds as they've usually got more experience there than their opponents and Jedrzejczyk is one of those champions.

Her brutalizing style has given her some spectacular finishes, but the longer the fight goes, the more she gets to show off just how good she really is. The 34-year-old was last seen against another former bantamweight champion, Weili Zhang, in what was 2020's Fight of the Year.

Straight shots, strong kicks, a great chin and excellent takedown defense complete the package that is one of Poland's greatest athletes. Jedrzejczyk may not be a current belt holder, but she's in conversation for being one of the most dominant and exciting champions that the MMA world has had the pleasure of viewing,
