Baysangur Susurkaev demonstrated a deep technical arsenal and finishing ability in his recent UFC 328 performance, though some are prematurely dismissing him due to close fights against opponents outside the top 15. The analyst argues that taking damage is inherent to Susurkaev's fighting style rather than a fundamental flaw. As the level of opposition gradually increases, the pattern of his fights should remain similar, with Susurkaev perhaps slightly reducing his volume of backfists per minute. The post questions whether Susurkaev has the potential to reach championship level. His current record stands at 12-0 following the victory, and the analysis suggests his aggressive, finish-oriented style could carry him far despite the damage he absorbs.
