Is wrestling still the most dominant base in MMA?

[Bawse]

Strikers are getting more dangerous and well-rounded, but wrestlers still seem to control the meta. Do you think wrestling is still the #1 base for winning fights, or has striking caught up?

Wrestling still controls MMA whether people like it or not. Good wrestlers can handle your whole striking abilities. I’ve seen dangerous kickboxers become helpless once they touch the cage.

I think wrestling is one of the strongest foundations in MMA. However, I also believe modern MMA rewards well-rounded fighters. Therefore, wrestling alone isn’t enough at the highest level.

Degastani fighters are the best when it comes to wrestling in MMA especially the UFC. There was a time when almost all the champions in the UFC are from Degastan Russia. Now, the tide is changing because the fans are being bored with low striking whenever they fight.
