Next Fight
After making a six-fight win streak in the UFC’s toughest division, Beneil Dariush just needed a chance to prove himself by facing a top rival.
He will get that opportunity on Saturday night after facing Tony Ferguson in the UFC 262 co-main event, and after a long wait for such a fight, Dariush is doing what he wants to do.
Wife
Beneil Dariush performed Fight of the Night at UFC Fight Night 184 against Carlos Diego Ferreira. After impressive performances in the first and second rounds, Darish came out with a split decision victory. Many believed that they should have taken a unanimous decision rather than a split. Still, he got the victory he needed.
But Dariush revealed that he did not stick to his original gameplan at all, and his wife paid attention to it. According to the perennial light contender, he called her after the fight and shouted at her. Daryush is now second on the scorecard against Ferreira, as he has previously defeated Brazil at UFC 179.
Vs Tony Ferguson
Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Lightweight talent Beneil Dariush and Tony Ferguson will collide at UFC 262 this weekend (Sat, May 15, 2021) inside the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas.
Dariush can actually do all this. He is somewhat jiu-jitsu eccentric, but Dariush never struggled to implement his takedown like many others without a wrestling background. Furthermore, Southpaw is a ferocious offensive force, capable of doing great damage with all its left-hand weapons.
Dariush has the same skill of pulling Ferguson down on the mat and controlling him. Like Olivera, instead of allowing “El Cucuy” to find his rhythm, Dariush would be advised to go on an aggressive start. If Dariush’s left hand / left kick is landing, he will probably be able to follow those takedown attacks.
Once on the mat, when Ferguson elevates his guard, Dariush must watch to pass. Sneaky rolling d’arce aside, no one in side control is so dangerous.
