Style Matchup

Striker VS Striker

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

Bessette Tactics

Veteran

"Matt Bessette is a seasoned striker with a high volume of strikes, but his grappling skills are underdeveloped and leave him vulnerable to submission attacks."

Thicknesse Tactics

Contender

"Colby Thicknesse is a well-rounded fighter with a strong record, but his striking and grappling numbers are not particularly impressive, making him a contender in the 135lbs weight class."
