Connor Matthews, better known as "The Controller", brings a 7-4 record into every walk to the cage — and in a division as crowded as featherweight, every single win matters.
Wrestling is the skeleton key here — 3.2 takedowns a round on average. Everything opponents want to do standing gets interrupted, smothered, and dragged to the canvas.
The last fight went to Yadier del Valle (Submission (Rear Naked Choke) R1) — a setback, and the interesting question is always what a fighter does with one.
