Lachinov caught me off guard being a member on the cast since he’s been fighting for Bellator and has done really well with a 5-1 record for the promotion. Also, Lachinov is a showman brawler who always puts on a show so any promotion would be lucky to have him. Right away you will see multiple flaws Lachinov has. He has a magnet on his chin as he’s always getting teed off on. With that said, he has toughness for days and has taken everything flush and has never been shaken. He’s willing to brawl with anyone because he can take it and can dish out power just as much. Lachinov struggles with takedown defense but he doesn’t go down easy. He has a dangerous guillotine when guys shoot on him. He scrambles well to get off his back and will roll for leg locks to get out of positions and he’s finished three fights while attacking a leg. Lachinov is such a dog and isn’t going to see anything he hasn’t seen yet.
