Scouting Report: Islam Makhachev via LevPisarsky
Features a wonderful mix of wrestling and judo, including some gorgeous hip tosses and inside trips.Ability to Return to Feet:Submissions:
He can slice through the opponent’s guard and then attack with a variety of techniques, including armbars, kimuras, arm-triangles and his outstanding rear-naked choke.Difficult to gauge since he never stays underneath an opponent for long.Perhaps the crown jewel of his game. He bites down on wrists, hips and even ankles, as he breaks down the base of his opponents whenever they try to build back up.Another area in which Makhachev excels.
As one of the great grapplers of his generation, Makhachev can get takedowns anywhere but prefers the clinch, where his exquisite inside trips and hip throws look like something out of a training seminar. He ranks as one of the best in history at top control. Once grounded, Makhachev unleashes furious, deadly ground-and-pound, battering every part of an opponent’s body with punches while adding elbows to the face for good measure.
