Albrektsson is the youngest of our prospects and already has some very good fight experience.  I believe that he has very high level potential and is a name that people should remember.  He is currently fighting in Rizin and his sole loss came to Valentin Moldavsky.  Albrektsson has really good size for the division and his length certainly makes him a danger.  “King” Karl has solid, fast hands.  One of the first things I noticed about Albrektsson was his size.  He fought Valentin Moldavsky at heavyweight and he absolutely dwarfed him (he lost the fight though).   Albrektsson ha shown a good ground game at times, but he also showed in the Moldavsky fight that he could be held down on his back.  I think Albrektsson is a special prospect.  He has all the tools to be one of the best.  However, I believe he needs to take a page from the Alexander Gustafsson book and put himself around better grapplers who will challenge him.  If Albrektsson is willing to seek out fixing his holes, he could end up being the best of this crop of light heavyweights.
