Ryoto Machida-the sleeper in the 205 pound division. Superbly skilled. Shut out after shut out. Great defence too which is rare,most MMA fighters are purely offence based fighters.
And I'd like to add Chuck Liddell has some of the best if not the best defence in MMA with regards to takedowns. I watched his whole career and I watch it over and over. IF someone takes him down,it was a great achievement! A victory in some ways,although the B****** would always get back up! I really like Chuck"!
Huerta is one of my favorites. A definate star in the making. Earlier this year he fought another mexican kat and it was a war from start to finish. Forgot the other kids name, sorry, but FOTY IMO. People forget about Karo alo. Can't wait to see him fight soon. Only reason I'm even buying this next UFC card is to see him and Bisping/Evans. Evans will steam roll Bisping just for the record.

Jake Shields is a stud but doesn't get much press
Aoki, Yamamato and Sakurai are big in Japan but get little press here
Carlos Condit is pretty good.

Who is Condit? Shinya Aoki and Norfumi "Kid" Yamamoto are P4P in my opinion.AWESOME fighters. So is Hayato.
Re: Under rated fighters?
Condit is the WEC welterweight champ

Re: Under rated fighters?
He is pretty balanced but more of a ground/submission fighter
Re: Under rated fighters?
i saw condit last night on versus channel he didin't really stand out to me
Re: Under rated fighters?
Karo Paysian. Truly a great judoka who has adopted it to mma.
Chris Leben. Rock hard shin, good left hook. Will never be a contender, but is pretty tough nonetheless.
