Yousri Belgaroui focuses on grappling ahead of Caio Borralho fight

Coach Glover Teixeira has highlighted the significant development of Yousri Belgaroui as he prepares for his upcoming middleweight bout against Caio Borralho at UFC 334 on November 14 at Madison Square Garden.

Teixeira noted that Belgaroui has been demonstrating a strong commitment to improving his grappling and wrestling skills. Even after demanding boxing sessions, Belgaroui often engages in additional 20-minute grappling exchanges with partners. The coach praised his rapid ability to learn new techniques, such as triangle variations, and his growing confidence on the ground.

Belgaroui enters the contest with a perfect 3-0 UFC record, with all three victories coming via knockout or technical knockout. While his striking has been his primary weapon, his coach believes his evolving ground game will be essential against Borralho, whom Teixeira describes as a complete opponent.
