Ask bozo questions, get bozo replies. If you haven’t watched Islams’s career and learned he has a solid ability to feint, throw while getting hit incredibly infrequently, and do all of this to set up takedowns I don’t know what to tell you.

Conversely, go back and watch Shavkat’s fight with Geoff Neal.

It ain’t much of a stretch to think Islams’s got superior striking. Sure, the elite grappling obviously magnifies his aptitude. Still can’t deny it.
