STRENGTHS
- Knockout power
Dennis Siver comes from a background in European kickboxing and has great knockout power with punches and dynamic kicks.
He’s had tough battles in the ring over the years, with big wins from a spinning back kick TKO and a grueling decision victory over George Sotiropoulos.
Utilize his techniques in the stand-up game, and stay out of the clinch.
He’s one of the lowest-rated guys in the division, but he can knock out anybody with his big shots and he’s got a good chin.
Mix up striking combinations and change levels to keep your opponent guessing. Stay technical, and defend religiously against any takedown attempts.
WEAKNESSES
- Grappling
- Clinch game
Dennis Siver is totally one-dimensional for an UFC fighter. He is a stand-up kickboxer who is a woeful grappler and nowhere near as comfortable in the Muay Thai Clinch.
Though he does have many submission victories in his career, you are much safer on the ground, where he has less power in his striking and you are sure to win the transition battles.
When the fight begins, set up a takedown with punches, but don’t stand with him.
Get to the clinch and take him down as fast as possible. Control him, ground-and-pound, and search for your submission.
His overall rating is an 81, but he drops far below that once you take him off his feet.
