Style Matchup
Striker VS Striker
"Striker vs Striker — High-octane standup battle expected. Reach, volume, and defensive footwork will separate these two."
Smith Tactics
Prospect"Braxton Smith is a high-volume striker with exceptional offense, but his grappling skills are untested."
Gaziev Tactics
Contender"Shamil Gaziev is a solid all-around fighter with a decent striking and grappling game, but he needs to develop more power and aggression to become a top contender in the heavyweight division."
