Kacprzak is the current Babilon featherweight champion looking to defend his title for a second time. Kacprzak is an unorthodox wildman. He doesn't have too much to offer on the feet but is a tough one to deal with on the mat. Kacprzak is so tricky and diverse on the mat he'll go for imanari rolls just to get the fight down. His wrestling isn't great but will get the fights down even if he has to go to his back. Kacprzak is constantly working on the mat looking for submission. He loves to attack the heel hooks but is so smooth at taking the back and going from there. He can be overzealous in transitions but his Jiu-Jitsu is so good that he can adjust on the fly. Kacprzak is just 25 so he has a lot of upside.
