Baisangur Susurkaev

"Hunter". That's what they call Baisangur Susurkaev, and is part of the UFC middleweight division's deep end, fighting out of Russia — 12 pro fights in, still swinging for a number next to his name.

The game is built on grappling: 2.8 takedowns per 15 minutes, and opponents spend rounds defending instead of fighting. 2 submission wins say what happens when the defense slips. Add a 79" reach, and the puzzle gets harder still.

He arrives on a 5-fight win streak — most recently Djorden Santos, Submission (Rear Naked Choke) R3. Streaks like that don't stay unnoticed for long.

And here's the scary part: he's 25. 12 pro fights before most fighters hit their prime — the ceiling is nowhere in sight.
