Brando Peričić, better known as "The Balkan Bear", holds the #14 spot at heavyweight, flying the flag for Australia — and rankings that high aren't given away, they're taken.
On the feet he's a problem: 11 significant strikes a minute at 60% accuracy, and 86% of his wins end in a knockout. The math is bad for anyone standing across from him. Add a 79" reach, and the puzzle gets harder still.
He arrives on a 5-fight win streak — most recently Shamil Gaziev, KO/TKO (Punch) R2. Streaks like that don't stay unnoticed for long.
