Nick Maximov is part of the UFC middleweight division's deep end, fighting out of the United States — 10 pro fights in, still swinging for a number next to his name.
Wrestling is the skeleton key here — 4.2 takedowns a round on average. Everything opponents want to do standing gets interrupted, smothered, and dragged to the canvas. Add the southpaw stance and a 76" reach, and the puzzle gets harder still.
The last fight went to Jacob Malkoun (Decision - Unanimous) — a setback, and the interesting question is always what a fighter does with one.
