"Blue Collar". That's what they call Nick Klein, and is part of the UFC middleweight division's deep end, fighting out of the United States — 9 pro fights in, still swinging for a number next to his name.
Wrestling is the skeleton key here — 5.8 takedowns a round on average. Everything opponents want to do standing gets interrupted, smothered, and dragged to the canvas. Add a 77" reach, and the puzzle gets harder still.
The last fight went to Andrey Pulyaev (KO/TKO (Kick) R2) — a setback, and the interesting question is always what a fighter does with one.
