Style Matchup

Kickboxing VS Grappler

"Tactical wildcard matchup — Both fighters bring unique tools to the cage. Adaptability and game planning will be key."

Manhoef Tactics

Veteran

"Melvin Manhoef is a veteran fighter with a solid striking game, but his grappling defense and submission defense are underwhelming."

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."
