Who is it? Whose game is the most complete in arguably the most talent filled division in MMA?
(C) McGregor?
Stand up: Hand speed, probably best one shot power at LW, accuracy, timing, pressure, and solid footwork.
Ground: Perhaps not elite but ever improving. Showed good tdd in last bout.
(1.) Nurmagomadov?
Stand up: Packs a lot of power in a single shot but lacks crisp combos and technicality. Used primarily to get close to his opponent.
Ground: Sambo and takedowns are second to none in LW, top pressure is suffocating, transission game is strong, great ground and pound, good at submissions.
(2.) Ferguson?
Stand up: Lengthy fighter, pushes the pace, unpredictable, and very solid jab. Very hittable for guys with elite footwork but chin and tenacity is great.
Ground: College wrestler with very slick submissions.
(3.) Alvarez?
Stand up: Head movement, lateral movement, power, good boxing fundamentals yet is easily coaxed into brawls at times which leaves his opponent with openings.
Ground: Solid jiu jitsu, high school wrestler, strong in clinch which leads to takedowns, strong on top.
(4.) Dos Anjos?
Stand up: Very good one strike KO power, great muay Thai, good chin
Ground: 5th degree BJJ black belt, pretty good MMA wrestling, strength
(5.) Diaz?
Stand up: Very solid boxing skills, great 1-2 combinations, keeps a good pace, great chin, long reach, but succeptable to leg kicks
Ground: Black belt in BJJ, dangerous anywhere on the ground, not great at takedowns but can get a trip/throw occasionally
It doesn't have to be one of the 6 fighters mentioned above, but who do you consider the most well rounded current LW?
