Best Light-heavyweights This Week (Patreon)

Light-heavyweight is shallow this week and Darwin Rodriguez (11-5) is the only one that stands out. His record isn't too appealing but his only loss in five years is to Ivan Erslan. Rodriguez isn't great anywhere but is capable of being a danger anywhere. On the feet, Rodriguez has knockout power in his hands and throws heavy leg kicks. He puts it together well. He's an even better wrestler and grappler in my opinion. I wouldn't rate his ground game too high but it's worked against the lesser guys he's fought. Rodriguez is only 29 and is someone we can still see in a big promotion at some point.
