Hughes Tactics
Veteran"Mark Hughes is a grappling specialist with solid numbers, but his striking defense needs improvement and his record suggests he's not a top-tier fighter."
Matsui Tactics
Journeyman"Daijiro Matsui is a struggling journeyman with a poor striking record, but he has shown some defensive prowess in the stand-up game, which may help him survive against better opponents."
