Nobody hands you anything at flyweight. Denys Bondar — "Psycho" to fight fans — has built a 14-5 record the hard way, one fight at a time since leaving Ukraine's regional scene.
The game is built on grappling: 4 takedowns per 15 minutes, and opponents spend rounds defending instead of fighting. 10 submission wins say what happens when the defense slips.
He's coming off a loss to Ronaldo Rodríguez. Careers aren't defined by the fall, though; they're defined by the rebound.
