Style Matchup

Wrestling, Kickboxing VS Sanda

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

Chiesa Tactics

Veteran

"Michael Chiesa is a well-rounded grappler with a strong wrestling background, but his striking defense is a concern as he navigates the upper echelons of the division."

Salikhov Tactics

Veteran

"A well-rounded veteran with a strong record, but inconsistent striking and grappling numbers make his base style difficult to determine."
