[vertical-gallery id=475636]
Age: 27
Debut: Bellator 99 on Sept. 13, 2013

Yamauchi has flourished into a top Bellator fighter in recent years, thriving across two weight classes. Lightweight has been his home of late, though, and en route to landing a top 10 spot on the stoppage list, Yamauchi has the most submission wins (eight) in company history.
9. [autotag]Brennan Ward[/autotag]
Age: 31
Debut: Bellator 81 on Nov. 16, 2012
Number of wins: Nine
Number of stoppages: Nine
If nothing else, Ward proved to be one of the most exciting fighters in Bellator history during his stay. Whether he gave it or took it, all 15 of Ward’s fights for the promotion ended inside the distance. He was on the winning end of nine of those fights.
