Where it breaks. Ground game is the soft spot (39, D). Thin offensive ground game. Wins come standing; once taken down this fighter is hunting a stand-up, not a sweep chain. Opponents who force wrestling and keep the fight on the fence have historically been the ones who make this résumé leak. When Nurgozhay loses, it is usually a finish (0 KO, 2 sub) — composure under the first clean hurt is the live question.
