    He objectively is tho. Yes, he pushes a high pace, but most of it is just pressure. And too often he ends up dominating his opponents, which means that the fight is just in a linear pace, and feels like it´s the same sequences in loop.

    But I will concede that his fights are never dreadful, say like Derrick Lewis fights often are.

    Again it shows how clueless you are about this sport. I doubt you even watch it. Maybe go actually watch some DJ fights. he also likes throwing hands to mix it up. The fight would be 100 mph, they would try and drop each other mixed in with some GNP who ever can get that advantage.
    His first fight with Ian McCall put the small guys on the map with the non stop action back and forth.

    Dj was a good scrambler. And his fight with prime Henry was a bit of a robbery, he clearly out struck him in the first 3 rounds.

    I just think DJ unlike the others can keep up with Merabs pace and just needs to win narrow decision. He would have no trouble popping to his feet and im sure he would not get subbed.

    I don`t like when he pins fighters down or against the fence without doing damage.

    There would be spots where Merab would jusy lay on top of him without doing anything.
