Style Matchup

Grappler VS Striker

"Grappler vs Striker — The grappler needs to close distance and secure takedowns early. The striker must keep it on the feet."

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."

Ferguson Tactics

Veteran

"Tony Ferguson is a veteran striker with a high volume of strikes and a strong record, but his grappling game is lacking, making him a one-dimensional fighter at 170lbs."
