Grappler VS Striker
"Grappler vs Striker — The grappler needs to close distance and secure takedowns early. The striker must keep it on the feet."
Backstrom Tactics
Veteran"Niklas Backstrom is a grappling specialist with strong takedown skills, but his striking defense is a concern and may make him vulnerable to opponents with strong striking."
Thicknesse Tactics
Contender"Colby Thicknesse is a well-rounded fighter with a strong record, but his striking and grappling numbers are not particularly impressive, making him a contender in the 135lbs weight class."
