Knockout threatFinisher

Fiziev is a striker who hunts the finish — of his 13 wins, 8 come by knockout, 1 by submission, and 4 by decision. He's a genuine finisher: 69% of those wins came inside the distance. 3 of his 5 defeats have come by KO/TKO, suggesting real vulnerability against powerful strikers. He's at his best when the fight stays standing — the live question in any matchup is whether an opponent can drag him into grappling he'd rather avoid.
