Makhachev's 19:10 of control and 4 takedowns in his most recent fight show an elite grappling-volume floor

AI reasoning

Makhachev is 28-1 and has won all three of his most recent bouts, including 4 takedowns with 19:10 of control against Jack Della Maddalena and 5 takedowns with 10:23 of control plus two submission attempts against Dustin Poirier. Garry is a legitimate 17-1 with a win over Belal Muhammad (72 significant strikes) and a high-volume decision over Carlos Prates (126 sig strikes, 4 TD landed), but he did drop his fight with Shavkat Rakhmonov. Makhachev's consistently overwhelming takedown and control-time output is the difference-maker.
