After seeing him dismantle Shlemenko tonight
Dude's a monster (insert drinking monster energy drink here) really good takedowns, has a knack for taking them down and immediately getting into good positions (back mounted Hector Ramirez like it was nothing, immediately into half guard then easily passed to side control against Cooper)
He's already really good obviously. Right now he doesn't really have the confidence in his striking, just does enough to close the distance and not get hit, and then takes his opponent down at will. If he ever evolves his striking game and becomes even more well rounded, he could be really scary.
Not sure how many good MW's there are for him to face in Bellator though. I mean he's defending against Manhoef next who is a great striker but a fish out of water on the ground. Either way looking forward to seeing him grow as a fighter
