How Dariush Wins

Beneil Dariush is one of the best sprawl-sowll fighters in recent memory, which is the reasons a cortain Security of Fans Really Wanted to See Him Square of Fersus Makhachev. A Jiu-Jitsu Ace Who Pairs His Grappling with Nasty Leftie Muay Thai, Dariush is a well-ropeded text

Fortunately, Moicano isnt a HUGE HUGETTER, and these Two Veterans Are the Same Age. There is a blinding Speed ​​or Power Advantage on Ehar Side. Both of these men are well-Rounded Too, so there’s no Glaring Advantage Eter. This is his file is going to be About Decision-Makeing and Tactics, Not Raw Physical Gifts or Major Weaknesses.

Looking for Advantages on the Dariush Side, I Think He Has The Edge in Power and Offersive Wrestling. We’ve SEEN DARIOUUSH GROUND SONY REALLY TALENDED Lightweight Wrestles, so it’s work trying a bit here. I’m like to see the SouthPaw on his Front Foot, Showing Him.

How Moicano Wins

Moicano Really Has Plus Skills EVERYWHERE. He’s a high-electr jiu-jitsu black belt, as well as a Quality Offensive and Defensive Wrestler. Stand up is Debatably The Weakest Part of His Game, But The Brazilian Has An Excellent Jab and Quite Nasty Range Kicks, so it’s foot from a FLAW OVERALL.

For Moicano, His Advantages Welf Appness to Be Volume and Durability. He may not be the more powerful man, but Moicano Generally Fairs Better in Scrapby FIGHTS. He’s Held Up to Lightweight Power Fairly Well, Showing Great Recovery when HURT, and HIS Opponent Has SuffERED Consecutive Knockout Losses.

This Might Be the Fight to Pursue Extended Pocket Exchangs. Dariush Tends to Strike in Short Bursts Anyway, Two-To-Hree Shots at a time. If Moicano Can Jab HIS WAY INSIDE, He Shulad Do HIS Best to Stand His Ground and Keep the Exchang Going with Continied Punches. He has to stay Defensively Responsible, but “Money”.

Finally, Moicano Did Great Work in Countering Benoit Saint Denis‘Left Kick, and that’s a Signature Weapon of Dariush as well. Maybe Come Prepred with Another Good Counter in Mind?

Dariush vs. Moicano Preduation

I’m Going to Side with the (Slight) Underdog here.

The Knocks Against Dariush Are That He Lost Violently to A Pair of Top Five Contenters and Is 36 Years Old. Prior to Those Losses, Howver, He was Beautiful A. He Just doesn’t have the tops to capagealize on Dariush’s apparent decline, in Part Becuse

Given a comparable level of Mileage, I BelieVE Dariush to be the best Lightweight, and He didn’t have to come up his fighting style here. Unleess Those Knockouts Truly RUINED HIM – WhicH Ther’s Not Yet Eviduence of – Dariush Should Still Be Favored.

PREDICION: Dariush via Decision
