Here are list of prophecies JESUS CHRIST has fulfilled from the Old Testament. Please do take note that the Old Testament Books were written long before Jesus Christ was born. And thus, one of my reasons why I believe the Bible and ONLY JESUS CHRIST being the ONE AND ONLY Messiah, NO ONE ELSE.
There are actually other prophecies Jesus has not yet fulfilled which we await to be fulfilled, just like these verses:
(Zechariah 14:1-4, Acts 1:11, 2 Thessalonians 1:8-9) The Lord Jesus Christ will someday come down just as He went up. But He shall come with His mighty angels to bring vengeance.
Other than Jesus fulfilling prophecies, there are others like those written in Daniel prophesying the coming and passing of empires [Nebuchadnezzar's dream and Daniel's interpretation of the great image.
There are those who don't believe on these, especially atheists, but the Bible can stand on its own just by the fact that many tried to erase it and yet, until now the Bible still stands as God's Word changing lives of those who believe on God's Word and on the Lord Jesus Christ, the Living Word.
As for others claiming that there are another messiah or another Christ, the question is, "Are there prophecies of their coming? or are they simply claiming? Are they even in the bloodline of King David? Most likely, 'NO' and the only prophecy they are fulfilling is that of the prophecies saying "there shall rise false prophets and false teachers, claiming to be the Messiah.."
Check out these verses, and may God, through the Holy Spirit, give understanding to those who read it and that you may see the Truth, found only on Jesus Christ.

Some additional verses or notes:
"See, my servant will act wisely; he will be raised and lifted up and highly exalted. Just as there were many who were appalled at him – his appearance was so disfigured beyond that of any man and his form marred beyond human likeness – so he will sprinkle [i.e. help or heal] many nations." Isaiah 52:13-15 (Isaiah was written 750 BC)
But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him and by his wounds we are healed .. the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all. He was oppressed and afflicted .. he was led like a lamb to the slaughter .. by oppression and judgment he was taken away. And who can speak of his descendants? For he was cut off from the land of the living. For the transgression of my people he was stricken .. After the suffering of his soul he will see the light of life and be satisfied. By his knowledge my righteous servant will justify many. (Isaiah 53: 5-11)
My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?… I am … scorned by men and despised by the people. All who see me mock me; they hurl insults, shaking their heads. … I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint. My heart has turned to wax; it has melted away within me… a band of evil men has encircled me, they have pierced my hands and my feet…I can count all my bones; people stare and gloat over me .. They divide my garments among them and cast lots for my clothing. .. All the ends of the earth will remember… Posterity will serve him; future generations will be told about the Lord. They will proclaim his righteousness to a people yet unborn. (Psalm 22, ca 1000 BC)
“’The days are coming’, declares the LORD, ‘when I will fulfill the gracious promise I made to the house of Israel and the house of Judah. In those days and at that time I will make a righteous Branch sprout from David’s line; he will do what is just and right in the land." (Jeremiah 33:14-15 ca. 600 BC - The Prophecy of lineage)
"Listen O High Priest Joshua and your associates seated before you, who are men symbolic of things to come: I am going to bring my servant the Branch. See the stone I have set in front of Joshua! … and I will remove the sin of this land in a single day." (Zechariah 3:8-9 written 500 BC - The name of Jesus Prophesied!)
“But you, Bethlehem, though you are small among the clans of Judah, out of you will come for me one who will be ruler over Israel, whose origins are from of old, from ancient times.” (Micah 5:2 written 700 BC - Birthplace of Jesus prophesied)
