Elias is a dog coming out of Mexico. He's a cerebral striker that attacks every part of the body. He does a great job mixing up his striking patterns and keeping his opponent guessing. Elias is constantly throwing in at least two. He'll go hook to the body to a leg kick and loves to go body-head. Elias is not taking a step backwards and is constantly working and putting with a beaten. With how dangerous his striking is he has a slick submission attack. He showed that in his last fight hitting a calf slicer. Not sure of the level he's at with the guys he's been beating but he gives me Daniel Barez vibes.
