Esteban Ribovics🇦🇷 (14-1) is a powerful and durable multi stance fighter who consistently and efficiently works combinations to the head and body without fading over 3 RDS because of his great cardio which I like. Ribovics is well rounded, being able to take it to the floor with solid takedowns, and once there, he targets the kimura. More than any other unranked lightweight, I believe in Estebans offensive ability against his opponents. But even though I'm high on him, he has bad habits. His biggest and worst flaw in his game is his horrid striking defense, which hasn't come back to bite him, but if not improved upon soon, it will as he fights up the ranks. Another notable hole is his takedown defense. If you are an above average wrestler, you may be able to hold him down. His opponent Nasrat Haqparast🇦🇫 (17-5) presses forward and works quick combinations and counters to the head and body with volume. He uses dirty boxing to work the cage push takedown, which he will need to look toward for this bout. My current pick is Ribovics via DEC in a banger.

Im surprised not that many people are talking about him, huge prospect and I would argue he has the potential to reach the top 5

I like this dude too much, and I believe he is one of the most entertaining unranked 155ers. But Nasrar ain't no joke. I think Esteban wins also by dec, but I will not be surprised if Nasrat gets dec
