Style Matchup

Striker VS Striker

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

Benitez Tactics

Veteran

"Gabriel Benitez is a well-rounded veteran with a strong striking game, but his grappling skills are somewhat limited, making him a threat in the stand-up but vulnerable on the ground."

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."
