Brandon Vera
Brandon “The Truth” Vera is the Norfolk, Virginia, fighter who started his UFC career 4–0, including a 69-second knockout of Frank Mir, and then declared he would hold titles at heavyweight and light heavyweight at the same time.
It didn’t happen: he lost to Tim Sylvia and struggled at light heavyweight, despite a war with Shogun Rua. He moved to the Philippines and became the first ONE Championship heavyweight champion in 2015. CagePotato covered his rise and the bold title claim.
