Learn more about Dakota Bush
Bush can fight at an aggressive pace and maintain the same energy for three rounds. He has no glaring holes; in both of his losses, he was out-wrestled. Bush is a Missouri state wrestling champion, so wrestling is his bread and butter. By no means is his takedown defense bad, but in the past, he was more muscular and worked. On the other hand, Bush is an excellent wrestler. He attacks well to close the distance and once he does, those takedowns are easy. Bush has a strong body, good trips, an excellent switch, and a good double leg.
Once Bush gets those takedowns, he has shown dominant jiu-jitsu. He immediately gets into better positions and is very good at taking the back in scrambles. He has four rear-naked rear-naked chokes to show how dangerous he is there.
Bush, moreover, is a solid fighter and on the feet, he’s becoming very dangerous. As you could see earlier, Bush strikes well to close the distance. He throws quick, straight punches in explosive flurries. As shown in his last fight, he has a good head kick and it’s something he’s landed a lot in his career. On the outside, you’ll see him throw a one-two, land a lot of kicks and use a lot of feints. The little things he needs to work on are getting his back off the cage and not letting men control him along the fence for long periods.
