Style Matchup

Grappler VS Sanda

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

Barnes Tactics

Prospect

"Nick Barnes is a skilled grappler with impressive numbers, but his striking numbers are concerning, and he may struggle against well-rounded opponents."

Salikhov Tactics

Veteran

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