Taiga Iwasaki brings a 9-2 record into every walk to the cage — and in a division as crowded as middleweight, every single win matters.
A balanced operator — 4 wins by KO, 2 by submission, 3 on the scorecards. No single weapon to game-plan around, which is exactly the problem.
He's coming off a loss to Yousri Belgaroui. Careers aren't defined by the fall, though; they're defined by the rebound.
