Easy to take risks when the company is giving you the best chance of winning every single time by matching you up with people that will play into your strengths. Has he fought one competent wrestler yet? Every opportunity he's gotten has been because he looks cool and has KO power. It definitely wasn't based on merit. Meanwhile Belal Muhammad...
85 and 205 aren't really wrestling heavy divisions. He fought Jan and survived on the ground. Jan isn't a wrestler but his wrestling was enough to stop Israel's move to LHW.
That's true. He also lucked out in that.
What competent wrestlers? There's isn't much at 185 and over at this point. Don't blame the company, blame the lack for actual fighters who utilize wrestling as way of winning the fight. This is similar to when people would say Khabib fought no wrestlers, it's easy to say that but when there is literally no competent great fighters who use wrestling in the weight class close to their rankings and or level then it's just pointing a weak point in the said fighters division.
How did Pereira luck out in that, when the same Jan beat Adesanya? There is no luck in that, there is only skills and Pereira showed he's much more competent when it came to "wrestling" against a common opponent than Adesanya.
