‘The Black Belt Hunter’ is 7-1 as a professional and has submission wins in 6 of his 7 victories. If he has successfully managed to work on his cardio, he will be virtually unstoppable if the fight hits the canvas. Not to mention, he packs a considerable amount of power in his punches and Stoltzfus will have to be wary.
Dustin Stoltzfus also lost his last fight as he was bested by Kyle Daukaus at UFC 255 in November 2020. The 13-2 fighter has a comprehensive game and it’s hard to limit him in any particular capacity. He hasn’t got his UFC run off to the best start and he’ll want to make right on his UFC journey going ahead.
