Albert Duraev +115?
https://www.tapology.com/fightcente...-night-albert-machete-duraev-vs-jun-yong-park
Albert Duraev is a strong wrestler with persistent and well-timed takedowns who uses good top pressure once on the mat to hold position while he hunts submissions. As with many MMA fighters from Russia, Duraev’s wrestling is less about timing a double leg, and more about getting the fight against the cage, engaging the clinch, and looking for trip takedowns.This method has proved successful in the UFC for many fighters because it offers a safer route to the canvas. When wrestlers shoot takedowns from distance, they run the risk of knees and uppercuts sending them back or knocking them out cold. But, a more methodical – pressure to clinch to trip to takedown – approach helps limit the danger from counter strikes.Duraev needs to take extra care to avoid the striking of his opponents because his offensive striking is basic, his striking defense is porous, and his chin is fragile. In a standup fight, granted against high-level power, last time out, Duraev was outclassed on the feet and quickly found himself getting pieced up.
Jun Yong Park is a borderline enigma in the octagon. Often, he is categorized as primarily a boxer, but, when he is discussed as such, he will fight predominately on the mat as a wrestler. While initially potentially puzzling given his prowess on the feet should mean his best chance is there to win the fight, Park’s willingness to forgo striking to wrestle showcases his best trait: intelligence with knowing his well-rounded ability can exacerbate the biggest fight difference between him and his opponent. What I mean by this is that Park has no ego in the octagon and will fight the easiest path to victory. And, given his recent opponents have been better strikers than grapplers, he has elected to forgo his boxing to wrestle, and win.While Park has the well-rounded ability to win on the feet and on the mat, he is far from the elite at either. On the feet, he has sound tight boxing but the issue is he is relatively slow moving which makes him easily hit. On the mat, Park does a very good job using his heavy build to lay on his opponent, and once control is established, inflict ground and pound. The issue, for him, is that if his opponent is even “UFC average” with grappling, he does not have the athletic tools to land a takedown — often, he uses gradual strength to work his way to the mat. While the elite tag may not be attributable to him, he is by no means an easy opponent. Moreover, I believe Park is a top 15/20 gatekeeper which is quite admirable, meaning, if a fighter beats him then said fighter desires to get a crack at the rankings.
