"The Maniac". That's what they call Marcus McGhee, and is ranked #15 at UFC bantamweight — close enough to smell the title, dangerous enough that champions don't say his name too loudly.
This is power striking with numbers behind it — 8 KO/TKO wins, 5.44 significant strikes landed per minute. Opponents don't get outpointed so much as dismantled.
Last time out he beat John Yannis (Decision - Unanimous) — the kind of result that keeps a career pointed in the right direction.
He's 36 now. Fighters at this stage aren't building toward something; they're spending what's left, and that usually makes for the best fights.
