I don't like Joe and I don't think most fight fans do either. But even my negative bias here can't keep me from recognizing that this is a perfect matchup for him. Joe's cardio issues will be negated by Abus' and Abus' doesn't have the Jack Hermansson pressure that would get Joe backing up. So Joe Pyfer is the pick and i imagine he will be even more insufferable after this win.

Joe Pyfer

Joe Pyfer is an incredibly powerful striker who has wrestling and BJJ in his back pocket. He hits like an absolute truck and uses his pressure to break people. He also has nice clean takedowns and as i mentioned, solid BJJ. He has cardio issues and doesn't love pressure. He is coming off the decision win over Kelvin Gastelum where he gave up the entire 3rd round.

Abus Magomedov

Abus Magomedov is a versatile striker with wrestling as a backup plan. He has very sneaky power because it never looks like hes throwing big shots but he can put people down. He is a long striker who does a great job using his length to counter and keep people on the end of his strikes. He will throw everything from tight hooks to headkicks and even though he can be hittable, he recognizes if he is on the wrong end of an exchange and quickly shoots double legs to get it to the ground. He does fade as fights go long and his recent win over Michel Pereira was no different.
