Style Matchup

Striker VS Striker

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

Sanders Tactics

Veteran

"A one-dimensional striker with a concerning lack of grappling skills, Sanders's career has been marked by a reliance on his jab and suspect takedown defense."

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."
