I get the impression you think the Bible as we know it today was always only one book. The writings were not always neatly contained in one book. The prophecies Jesus fulfilled were written about Him hundreds of years before His birth.
During Jesus' time, the religious authorities, as well as others, knew of these prophecies. If Jesus had not truly fulfilled them, those opposed to Him would have easily been able to debunk Him as being a hoax, if He indeed had been. If His miracles and resurrection had been a hoax, the number of people putting their faith in Him would not have increased so rapidly, especially under the threat of being tortured and killed for their faith. Most people aren't willing to risk their lives for a hoax. If the prophecies had not been fulfilled, do you honestly think there would be such a great number of worldwide believers today?
As far as other prophecies, you should do a little research on Israel.
-----EDIT-----
This website talks about Alexander the Great, as someone above me mentioned:

And, after a quick search, I found this on the prophecies concerning Israel:

i don't understand. comedian books have not got a single author yet all of them stick to the comparable topic of its superhero. those people who have been writing the hot Testaments had study (or heard via be conscious of mouth) the previous Testaments so it is not too no longer worry-free to end the story. it is not too no longer worry-free to evolve a character for a greater moderen technology despite if the character is the Bible. Plus there are relatively some diverse aspects to God which style of makes you think of that each author became into including his own attitude. I imply, why would an all-understanding God have a character exchange with Jesus interior the photograph? no one is denying the intricacies of the Bible's creation, yet once you have megastar Wars situations one hundred, you nonetheless have a paintings of fiction no remember how complicated it is. First, the Bible says it is a sin to mixture fibers in a bite of outfits in user-friendly terms to have Jesus retract that fact. Jesus retracted a great style of stuff from the previous Testaments yet no longer something replaced different than for the writers.

The History of the world is the prophecies fulfilled. Read Revelations 12 through 19, this is the true story of the world.

There was the prophecy of God's word becoming flesh(in the old testament). So, seeing how there have been anti-Christians writing about Jesus, Himself, then wouldn't that prove that Jesus really did exist? And if what Jesus claimed to be(the son of God) that the prophecy of God's word becoming flesh(Jesus) have been the fulfillment?
If that all is true then there are historical, and not just biblical, references to this prophecy being fulfilled.

Because many different Gospels were considered for inclusion into the New Testament, and only those which demonstrated the fulfillment of prophecy were finally admitted. Would it somehow have made a difference if they were left as individual works?
Yes, Christians compiled the evidence into one handy book....our bad.

None? Nowhere?
The temple was destroyed.
A child was born in Bethlehem, the least of cities, that would change the world.
Not too well versed in your hatred are you?
As I said, not too well versed. The destruction of the Temple, and the birth of Jesus are documented historical facts. The destruction of the Temple has been a subject of many archeological digs. The remains of the Temple still exist in Jerusalem. I have seen it. As for Jesus, he was a historical character. Believe what you want otherwise but his birth is recorded.
I am unclear on your reason for asking this. Is it to cast derision?

I hate to break it to you, but prophecies have been fulfilled... Such as Alexander the Great- among countless others.

B.C. to A.D. is enough exterior prophecy proof.
