Style Matchup

Grappler VS Balanced

"Balanced vs Specialist — The well-rounded fighter can dictate where this fight takes place, forcing their opponent out of their comfort zone."

Ely Tactics

Veteran

"Aaron Ely is a grappling specialist with impressive takedown numbers, but his poor striking numbers and limited record make him a veteran fighter with a specific skillset."

Nurmagomedov Tactics

Veteran

"Said Nurmagomedov is a well-rounded veteran fighter with a long career and balanced skillset, but lacks a clear dominant style and has declined in recent years."
