Grappler VS Grappler

"Grappler vs Grappler — Grinding, tactical war on the mat. Takedown accuracy and ground control will decide this one."

Ely Tactics

Nakamura Tactics

Contender

"Rinya Nakamura is a skilled grappler and contender with a strong takedown game and submission threat, making him a formidable opponent in the 135lbs weight class."
