Grappler VS Grappler
"Grappler vs Grappler — Grinding, tactical war on the mat. Takedown accuracy and ground control will decide this one."
Sousa Tactics
Veteran"Manoel Sousa is a skilled grappler with a strong background in Brazilian jiu-jitsu, but his striking skills are underdeveloped, making him a one-dimensional fighter."
Nelson Tactics
Veteran"Gunnar Nelson is a skilled grappler with a strong submission game and solid wrestling skills, but his striking is not his strong suit."
