Matthews Tactics
Veteran"AJ Matthews is a well-rounded veteran with a strong striking game, but limited grappling skills, making him a formidable opponent in the stand-up department."
Shields Tactics
Veteran"Jake Shields is a seasoned grappler with a strong ground game, but his striking defense and takedown accuracy have declined with age."
