Win Methods
Jacob Malkoun, better known as "Mamba", brings a 10-3 record into every walk to the cage — and in a division as crowded as middleweight, every single win matters.
Wrestling is the skeleton key here — 5.4 takedowns a round on average. Everything opponents want to do standing gets interrupted, smothered, and dragged to the canvas.
The form line is loud: 3 straight wins, the latest over Gerald Meerschaert (Decision - Unanimous). Momentum like that forces the division's hand.
