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."

Lapilus Tactics

Veteran

"Taylor Lapilus is a seasoned striker with a strong record, but his grappling skills are underdeveloped."
