Striker VS Striker

"Striker vs Striker — High-octane standup battle expected. Reach, volume, and defensive footwork will separate these two."

Loughnane Tactics

Elite

"Brendan Loughnane is a high-volume striker with a strong striking background, but his grappling skills are underdeveloped, making him a high-risk, high-reward opponent."

Gaethje Tactics

Veteran

"Justin Gaethje is a veteran striker with a high-volume and aggressive style, and is considered one of the most exciting fighters in the lightweight division."
