Style Matchup

Striker VS Balanced

"Balanced vs Specialist — The well-rounded fighter can dictate where this fight takes place, forcing their opponent out of their comfort zone."

Santa Maria Tactics

Journeyman

"Jonathan Santa Maria is a skilled striker with strong defensive skills, but his lack of grappling output and balanced record make him a journeyman in the division."

Nurmagomedov Tactics

Veteran

"Said Nurmagomedov is a well-rounded veteran fighter with a long career and balanced skillset, but lacks a clear dominant style and has declined in recent years."
