Grappler VS Striker

"Grappler vs Striker — The grappler needs to close distance and secure takedowns early. The striker must keep it on the feet."

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."

Kazama Tactics

Contender

"Toshiomi Kazama is a grappling specialist with a strong submission game and solid takedown defense, making him a formidable opponent in the division with a clear path to victory."
