I get that Motobek ran through Tofiq so people are assuming he sucks, but Motobek also just ran through Chris Curtis. Ignacio is a very good striker who is a problem on the feet, he also has sneaky BJJ because of his length. But he can be out wrestled and stuck on his back and he can't get his own takedowns if he is in trouble on the feet. Tofiq isn't great, but he comes in chaotically on the feet then utilizes the no mustache technique he could definitely sneak out a win. I'm not going to do anything crazy here and the pick will be Ignacio because of how dangerous he is and his high level experience. I am likely staying away from bets here because as much as i love Ignacio there is a path for Tofiq

Ignacio Bahamondes

Ignacio Bahamondes is an insanely tall 6'3 and he typically uses that size and reach well. He is a striker with incredible volume and ok power. He has very good foot work and head movement which protects him from power shots and solid takedown defense at 75%. His takedown offense however sits at a horrendous at 0% which isn't because he hasn't attempted, just because he cant get them. He is coming off the straight forward loss to Rafael Fiziev where he attempted a handful of takedowns but was ultimately out grappled himself

Tofiq Musayev

Tofiq Musayev is a very exciting fighter and a welcomed addition to the weight class despite being blown through in his last fight. While he has a mustache and no beard, he is far more exciting than your typical wrestler. He throws everything with 100% intent and will hunt for finishes on the feet and the on the ground. He's a good wrestler, a powerful striker and a tough matchup for people who cant immediately take him down. He is coming off the submission loss to Kyktyk Orolai where he was immediately taken down and eventually submitted.
