Style Matchup

Grappler VS Sanda

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

Rio Tactics

Journeyman

"Mike Rio is a grappler with a strong takedown game, but his striking is underdeveloped and his defense can be porous at times."

Salikhov Tactics

Veteran

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